rise

I woke up heavy With dust on my shoes My window was gray And I was gray too You said, "Keep going" So I kept my feet One small step at a time On the broken street Now the air is changing I can feel it now My name on the wind Pulling me somehow Rise above the clouds Rise above the clouds Take me higher now Rise above the clouds Hands up to the sun Heart through the crowd I was lost below Now I’m rising out I held that old hurt Like a stone in my palm It weighed down my chest But I stayed on long Now the morning opens Like a door unlatched I’m not where I was And I won’t go back Now the air is changing I can feel it now My name on the wind Pulling me somehow Rise above the clouds Rise above the clouds Take me higher now Rise above the clouds Hands up to the sun Heart through the crowd I was lost below Now I’m rising out If the road goes steep I won’t look down I’ve got fire in my lungs And the sky in my mouth Rise above the clouds Rise above the clouds Take me higher now Rise above the clouds Hands up to the sun Heart through the crowd I was lost below Now I’m rising out
