Rise Up Lyrics

Waking up from believing
I have nowhere else to go
Holding on to the feeling
Of what I already know

No one told me the rules
No one showed me the scheme
But I've always played to win
Time will tell what tomorrow's decision
Where I start or where I begin

I'm getting closer
To higher ground

So rise up for a new day
Rise up before you go away
Rise up for a new day
It goes on and on and on
You'd better rise up
Rise up for a new day
You'd better rise up
Rise up for a new day

Taking back what was always mine
Cause you can't have my dignity
Breaking down all the battle lines
And it's time we both agree

We're getting closer
To higher ground

So rise up for a new day
Rise up before you go away
Rise up for a new day
It goes on and on and on
Rise up for a new day
You'd better rise up
