I wake to morning silence
Dreams heavy in my mind
The shadows try to linger
But I won’t be left behind
A whisper rising higher
A fire in my chest
I'm learning how to bend
But never break like all the rest
Broken roads and detours
Scars I tried to hide
But every crack and heartbreak made the light inside me shine
Step by step I'm braver
I'm reaching for the sky
I’ll turn the tears to rivers, let them carry me to life

I hear the world around me
I feel it in my bones
The strength it took to stand up
I know I'm not alone
I will rise like the Sun
Let the darkness come undone
Every scar, every tear
Made me who I’ve become
When the world weighs a ton
I’ll remember I'm the one
I will rise like the Sun
(Oh, yeah)

Looking in the mirror
I see a different face
Courage in the corners
Hope that can’t be erased
The pages of my story
Written with these hands
If I can keep on climbing
I know I’ll learn to land
The night is slowly fading
The dawn is breaking through
Every step I'm taking
I'm closer to the truth
I will rise like the Sun
Let the darkness come undone
Every scar, every tear
Made me who I’ve become
When the world weighs a ton
I’ll remember I'm the one
I will rise like the Sun
(Oh, yeah, oh)

If I fall, I’ll rise again
Stronger than before
I’ll spread my wings and fly
I was meant for more
I will rise like the Sun
Let the darkness come undone
Every scar, every tear
Made me who I’ve become
When the world weighs a ton
I’ll remember I'm the one
I will rise
Like the Sun
