Lyrics

Here I am again
On the brink
When the noise gets too loud
I start to sink
I'm in box the sender forgot to mark as fragile
I'm all banged up and broken from the travel

But I might stumble when I climb
Go down in flames each time I fly
I still rise
I still rise

The words that others say
Can cut so deep
And I can't keep count
Of every casualty
When you run out of breath
Before you reach the surface
The final stretch
Can feel like it's enormous

I might stumble when I climb
Go down in flames each time I fly
But I still rise
I still rise
I might give into the tide
Or end up on the losing side
But I still rise
I still rise

I don't know if I'll ever reach the shore
From a raft that's tattered and torn
But I keep picking up the oars
Again and again and again

I might stumble when I climb
Go down in flames each time I fly
But I still rise
I still rise
I might give into the tide
Or end up on the losing side
But I still rise
I still rise
I might fall upon my face
Or finish last in the race
But I still rise
I still rise
I still rise
I still rise every time
