[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
You can stand beside the madness like a falling tear
~#**************#~
You can hold onto the sadness like a souvenir
~#**************#~
Or you can close your eyes and see your life
~#**************#~
Like the air
~#**************#~
You can tap into the strength you never knew you had
~#**************#~
You can breathe into your faith no matter where you’re at
~#**************#~
Just close your eyes and change your life
~#**************#~
Like the air
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Like the air you can
~#**************#~
Rise from the rubble with your mind, you can hover
~#**************#~
You can rise like the tide, like the heat it in the summer
~#**************#~
Yes, I know there are those who will wanna bring you down
~#**************#~
But you can rise with your mind and make your higher power proud
~#**************#~
Like the air you can rise
~#**************#~
Rise
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
The earth can pull you down with all its gravity
~#**************#~
And the measure of your worth is sometimes hard to see
~#**************#~
So just hold on, when the night is done
~#**************#~
Like the sun
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Like the air you can
~#**************#~
Rise from the rubble with your mind, you can hover
~#**************#~
You can rise like the tide, like the heat it in the summer
~#**************#~
Yes, I know there are those who will wanna bring you down
~#**************#~
But you can rise with your mind and make your higher power proud
~#**************#~
Like the air you can rise
~#**************#~
Rise
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
So even when your bones feel like weights
~#**************#~
And it’s hard to lift the smile on your perfect face
~#**************#~
You can still find a peaceful place
~#**************#~
Close your eyes until youre floating up in outer space
~#**************#~
It’ll be alright, they’re just jealous of your highs
~#**************#~
So they can knock you down, but
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Like the air you can
~#**************#~
Rise from the rubble with your mind, you can hover
~#**************#~
You can rise like the tide, like the heat it in the summer
~#**************#~
Yes, I know there are those who will wanna bring you down
~#**************#~
But you can rise with your mind and make your higher power proud
~#**************#~
Like the air you can rise
~#**************#~
Rise
