Risin' to the top
Yeah
Risin' to the top
Oh yes I am, yeah
Risin' to the top
Oh I'm risin' up
Yes I am
Yes I am
Yeah
Mmm
I'm ridin' up from the ashes
I've gotten over all the pain
I've been on a long wild journey
Just to end up here back again
I'm breakin' free from these shackles
Don't wanna feel like where I've been
So I came back to earn your respect
Borrow what's necessary for my success
Risin' up
Been on my back now for way too long
Risin' up
I'm gonna make it
Risin' to the top
Oh yes I am, yeah
Mmm
Oh yeah
Maybe you see the glitter and glamour
The fancy cars and diamond rings
They're just an illusion of my life
What material don't mean a thing
I've been rejected, torn out of view
I've been beaten down, trampled on, just like you
Findin' yourself ain't easy to do
If I could do it, baby, tell me how would you?
Risin' up
Been on my back now for way too long
Risin' up
I'm gonna make it
Risin' to the top
Risin' up
Oh I'm risin' up
Yes I am
Risin' up
Yes I am
Never, never, never
It's not gonna be easy
To make it, baby
You gotta take it one day at a time
Yes you do
You gotta keep your head above the water
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Ba-woop
Ba-woop
Ow
Risin' up
Been on my back now for way too long
Risin' up
I'm gonna make it
Risin' to the top
Oh yes I am
Yeah
Yeah
Risin' to the top
Mm-hmm
I'm gonna make it
Risin' up
Oh I'm risin' up
Yes I am
Yes I am
Never, never, never
Yes I am
Yes I am
