I ve spent so much time feeling so small
That I couldn t see I was the one building up all the walls
No, I ve never felt like this before
Something has changed; no, I m not the same
I m ready to start a war
And I feel it in my veins
Though it s darkest before dawn
No, it won t ever fade away
Start this fire
Rise, rise, up from the ashes, keep climbing my way to the sky
Rise, rise, and push past the limits; I know I was made to fly
I know in my heart that if I were to fall
I d pick myself up; I can depend on myself through it all
And I feel it in my veins
Though it s darkest before dawn
No, it won t ever fade away
Start this fire
Rise, rise, up from the ashes, keep climbing my way to the sky
Rise, rise, and push past the limits; I know I was made to fly
So you tell me that it s over
Cause when the chips are down
And the stakes are high
That s when I rise, that s when I
Feel it in my veins
Though it s darkest before dawn
No, it won t ever fade away
Start this fire
Rise, rise, up from the ashes, keep climbing my way to the sky
Rise, rise, and push past the limits; I know I was made to fly
I know I was made to fly
I know I was made to fly
