I Will Rise

Crushed, hurt, shattered
This new dawn finds me broken
Lost, drenched, shaken
Trying to scream but there's only silence

I can hear your lies linger in my head
Taunting me I'll never be
But my last drop is yet to be shed
And I know I have it in me

And I'll rise from here
To set me free
Though you push me to the ground
You'll never have me bound
Cos I'll get up on my knee
And stand up for me

Wounds on my back, memory I dread
Trying me so I'll never be
But I know it's all in my head
This time it will be up to me

And I'll rise from here
To set me free
Though you push me to the ground
You'll never have me bound
Cos I'll get up on my knee
And stand up

Your vast trough is now of my past
New pathways unfolding fast
Looking onwards, I hold my head high
And I'll run to reach for the sky

And I will rise from here
To set me free
Though you push me to the ground
You'll never have me bound
Cos I'll get up on my knee

And I will fly...
(Soaring high...)
I will never hit the ground
And never will be bound
Cos I know I have it in me
To be all of me
