Lyrics
I was born strong
I was made for this
See, I met so many hard time
When I thought I couldn't make it
See, I had my trials when my pillows dried my eyes
Then the morning came
And my wings took flight
I rise, I rise
See, I'm hurting, but not broken
Down, but I won't die
I rise, I rise
Soon I will reach the sky
And still I rise
Some say it's a mystery
How I still believe
Then in spite of all I've been through
I can still push the will
See, I have power they can't see with their eyes
It's a little thing called faith
That makes broken wings fly
I rise, I rise
Though I'm hurting, but not broken
Down, but I won't die
I rise, I rise
Soon I will reach the sky
And still I rise
Who can understand
When just an ordinary man
Defies the odds and still
Fights on to win
I can take it
I can make it
I rise, I rise
See, I'm hurting, but not broken
Down, but I won't die
I rise, I rise
Soon I will reach the sky
And still I rise, I rise
See, I'm hurting, but not broken
Down, but I won't die
I rise, I rise
Soon I will reach the sky
And still I rise
