Raise Up

This ain't a fairytale There's, no way to tip the scales For, each win I seem to fail That's the way it goes Sometimes I ain't that tough And, my best ain't good enough When I try and shake it off Still I hit that low But the more that it hurts me The more I keep on I reach down inside me And I know I'll over come

If I lose my strength If I'm hanging by a thread If I'm going under I raise up

Just like a river flowing I bend but never broken In time every cloud disappears like smoke And when my edge is closer And I'm slowly going over Those things won't bring me down When I'm up against the ropes The more that you stop me The faster I run It's never that easy But I know I'll over come

If I fall from grace If I'm feeling out of place When I'm just so untogether I raise up

I raise up, up, up, up, up, up, up I raise up, up, up I raise up [x2]

If I fall from grace If I'm feeling out of place When I'm just so untogether I raise up

I raise up, up, up, up, up, up, up I raise up, up, up I raise up [x2]

If I lose my shade If I'm going under Yeah I raise up Well, if I fall from grace When I'm feeling out of place I raise up
