The Kelly Song Collective
Rise
If you’re asking rise or fall
I say rise
If you ask me anything at all
I say rise
The space from there to here
I say rise
Just to balance on this sphere
I say rise
Rise and overcome
Rise as though the sun
Rise though you’ve lost your will
Rise and rise until
If you calculate the cost
I say rise
Of a promise lost
I say rise
The day you’re born you start to die
Let that smoke redden your other eye
Speak a final word
I say rise
Breathing as a bird
I say rise
