Raise Up

This ain't a fairytale. There's no way to tip the scales. For each win, I seem to fail. That's the way it goes. Sometimes I ain't that tough and my best ain't Good enough. When I try and shake it off, still I Hit that low. But the more that it hurts me, The more I keep on. I reach down inside me and I know I'll Overcome. If I lose my strength, if I'm hanging by Thread, if I'm going under, I'll Raise up. Just like a river flowing, I've been but never Broken. In time, every cloud disappears like Smoke. And when my edge is closer and I'm slowly Going over, those things won't bring me down when I'm up against the ropes. The more that you stop me, the faster I'll Run. It's never that easy, but I know I'll overcome. If I fall from grace, if I'm feeling out Of place, when I'm just not together, I'll raise up. I'll raise up, up, up, Up, up, up. I'll raise up, Up, I'll raise up, Up, up, up, up, Up, I'll raise up, up, up. I'll raise up. Just like a river flowing, I've been but never Broken. In time, every cloud disappears like Smoke. If I lose my strength, if I'm hanging By a thread, if I'm going under, I'll raise up. If I lose my strength, if I'm hanging by A thread, if I'm going under, I'll Raise up. If I fall from grace, if I'm feeling out Of place, when I'm just not together, I'll raise up. I'll raise up, Up, up. I'll raise Up. Oh yeah, yeah, I'll raise up, up. I'll raise up. If I lose my strength, if I'm going under, Yeah, I'll raise up. Well, if I fall from grace, when I'm feeling Out of place, Yeah, I'll raise up
