Raise Up
This ain't a fairytaleThere's, no way to tip the scalesFor, each win I seem to failThat's the way it goesSometimes I ain't that toughAnd, my best ain't good enoughWhen I try and shake it offStill I hit that lowBut the more that it hurts meThe more I keep onI reach down inside meAnd I know I'll over come
If I lose my strengthIf I'm hanging by a threadIf I'm going underI raise up
Just like a river flowingI bend but never brokenIn time every cloud disappears like smokeAnd when my edge is closerAnd I'm slowly going overThose things won't bring me downWhen I'm up against the ropesThe more that you stop meThe faster I runIt's never that easyBut I know I'll over come
If I fall from graceIf I'm feeling out of placeWhen it's just so hard togetherI raise up
I raise up, up, up, up, up, up, upI raise up, up, upI raise up [x2]
