Let the dust settle down Pull myself off the ground Let the ashes fly
In a blazing sky
Cin't no flag coming out
Prechorus
I've had the knife in my side I've had to swallow my pride I felt the burn of a stolen life
Still, I rise
Still, I rise
Still, I rise
Still, I rise
This is my war cry
I've got scars on my heart Where my world was torn apart There's a sweet release
In the victory
When you believe in who you are
Not going back this time
Not giving up this fight
Not going back this time
Not going back this time
Not giving up this fight
Not going back this time
Not going back, not going
