You've been around the block, |
|
You've been branded in scarlet, |
|
Cigarette burns on your arms, |
|
Self-infliction, escape the harm |
|
I can see you touch yourself, |
|
Dealing with the cards you dealt, |
|
But you don't have to run away, |
|
You don't have to be afraid |
|
Show me how to rise (When life is kicking you kick back, don't be a victim of), |
|
Rise above (the mistakes that were made when you were growing up), |
|
Show me how to rise (a young child not taught to be an adult), remember how to love (raise your arms, you're free, don't have to give it up) |
|
Show me how to rise (When life is kicking you kick back, don't be a victim of), |

Show me how to rise (a young child not taught to be an adult), remember how to love (raise your arms, you're free, don't have to give it up) yourself |
|
In the corner, fetal pose, |
|
Many friends but no one knows, |
|
Scars imprinted on your life, |
|
So your tongue you have to bite |
|
How long will you be this way, |
|
With your dual identity, |
|
Healing happens with release, |
|
Time to stop the wrist that bleeds |
|

How to rise above (how to rise above), |
|
Show me how to rise (show me how to rise), |
|
Remember how to love (remember how to love) |
