Raise Up lyrics

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 it's just so hard together

I raise up

I raise up, up, up, up, up, up, up

I raise up, up, up

I raise up [x2]

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 lose my strength

If I'm hanging by a thread

If I'm going under

I raise up [x2]

If I fall from grace

If I'm feeling out of place

When it's just so hard together

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
