Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Put on my big-boy pants today
Dragged my ass out of bed
I live this life like I'll be dead tonight
Or so the soothsayers say
Or so the soothsayers
[Verse 2]
I will rise
Like the air, like the dust, like the sand in the storm
I will rise
Leave me at dusk, at night I'm reborn
I will rise
Like a diamond first cut from inside my maker's thighs
I will rise
Like a diamond first cut from inside my maker's thighs
[Verse 3]
Whatever life before me laid
I built one better, never behaved
That's why they feel betrayed
They'll remember, they'll remember
Remember my name
[Verse 4]
I will rise
Like the air, like the dust, like the sand in the storm
I will rise
Leave me at dusk, at night I'm reborn
I will rise
Like a diamond first cut from inside my maker's thighs
I will rise
Like a diamond first cut from inside my maker's thighs
[Verse 5]
I will rise
Like the air, like the dust, like the sand in the storm)
[Verse 6]
I will rise
Leave me at dusk, at night I'm reborn
I will rise
Like a diamond first cut from inside my maker's thighs
[Verse 7]
I will rise
Like a diamond first cut from inside my maker's thighs
I will rise
Like a diamond first cut from inside my maker's thighs
