Mat Ogden - Soul Story Lyrics

Gallantly marching away from the shore
Into perilous thought with a two-edged sword
Wanna turn back, but I can't keep lying
Many men fear they will stumble and drown
In the space of their soul where the darkness abounds
Oh I feel it inside, but it ain't worth me dying

Will I rise, lift above the waters
Catch the sights with eyes out of the dark
Brand new skies to fly out in the thunder
Will I rise to fly up in the lights

Never thought twice how the system inside
Of my heart kept me out of love
Fortified and alone, all alone for nothing
I heard you speak, saw the angels and signs
But I fought til the breaking of fear and my pride
Oh I know now you were behind me the whole time

Will I rise, lift above the waters
Catch the sights with eyes out of the dark
Brand new skies to fly out in the thunder
Will I rise to fly up in the lights

I used to think that I'd carry the weight of it inside to the grave
Be alone in my doubt as the years pass by
Let my failures divide me from the dark and the light
Til I heard the great ringing of bells, their resounding prevail
Shook the grounds in the deep, woke me out of my sleep
But how could I rise to fly up in the lights
Oh then I turned my eyes and saw heaven inside

Yes I'll rise, I will rise
I'll rise, I'll rise

Yes I'll rise, lift above the waters
Catch the sights with eyes out of the dark
Brand new skies to fly out in the thunder
Yes I'll rise to fly up in the lights
