Rise

You may knock me down But I will rise up You may take my legs So I will crawl Whether I crash and burn Or trip and fall I will never stay down No matter the weight that burdens me I will fight to rise again and again The struggles I carry, the heartache I have I will bear with a smile on my face Even if darkness surrounds me And the weight of the world crashes upon me I will fight the tides and push on I will get up again and again Till the day my soul leaves my body No force man or beast can keep me down Tooth and nail, bleeding and broken I shall rise I will crawl so I can rise I will run so I can fight For long as I have air in my lungs And a beat in my chest
