Rise Above

Verse 1: 2011, a year of pain and strife Lost my mom, my rock, my guiding light Grief consumed me, like a darkened night And I thought I couldn't make it through the fight Chorus: It was the worst year, the hardest time Felt like I was losing my mind But I found a way, to rise above And make it through, with a heart that loves Verse 2: My wife fell down, and broke her arm in two I felt so helpless, didn't know what to do And then I lost my job, and my world came crashing down Left with one income, and a family to crown Chorus: It was the worst year, the hardest time Felt like I was losing my mind But I found a way, to rise above And make it through, with a heart that loves Verse 3: I had a panic attack, on my way to class Thought I was dying, and my future was grass But I took a breath, and let go of my fears And made it through, all those doubts and tears Chorus: It was the worst year, the hardest time Felt like I was losing my mind But I found a way, to rise above And make it through, with a heart that loves Outro: Now I look back, on that difficult year And I'm proud to say, I made it clear That I'm stronger now, and I won't give up the fight And I'll keep on moving, into the light.
