| You can stand beside the madness like a falling piece,
|
| You can hold onto the sadness like a souvenir,
|
| Just 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.
|
| 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…
|
| 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.
|
| 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…
|
| 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 you’re floating up in outer space,
|
| It’ll be alright, they’re just jealous of your highs
|
| So they can knock you down, but…
|
| 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. |
