Walk the Moon - Rise Up

Rise up

Baby, let me tell you
From all the mistakes that I've made
Some days will crush your spirit
And make you question your strength
You'll wake up in the morning
Sinking down in your bed
When everything seems hopeless
Remember these words I said

You can be a rockstar, famous actor
Big league player, doesn't matter
You're gonna fall down (everyday)
You're gonna fall down (everyday)

And when you taste that earth, face in the dirt
Gotta rise up, gotta rise up
When you're stumblin down, smack on the ground, sing, oh, oh
When the daylight blinds, open your eyes
Gotta rise up, gotta rise up
When the reaper come calling in the dead of night, sing, oh, oh

Rise up, rise up, rise up now
To your higher elevation (rise up)
From the fires in the basement, sing, oh, oh
Rise up, rise up, rise up now
When you're down on the pavement (rise up)
Show the crowd what you're made of, sing, oh, oh
Rise up

(Welcome to the world, baby)
So welcome to the real world
One day you'll be out there earning
Life's about to school ya
Same old lessons 'til you learn 'em
And I promise you this, your shit will hit the fan
And when it does, you can call me and I'll lend a hand

'Cause you can be a rockstar, famous actor
Big league player, doesn't matter
You're gonna fall down (everyday)
Ooh, you're gonna fall down (everyday)

And when you taste that earth, face in the dirt
Gotta rise up, gotta rise up
And when you're stumblin down, smack on the ground, sing, oh, oh
When the daylight blinds, open your eyes
Gotta rise up, gotta rise up
When the reaper come calling in the dead of night, sing, oh, oh

Rise up, rise up, rise up now
To your higher elevation (rise up)
From the fires in the basement, sing, oh, oh
Rise up, rise up, rise up now
When you're down on the pavement (rise up)
Show the crowd what you're made of, sing, oh, oh
Rise up

Hallelujah! Life is gonna school, yeah
Hallelujah! Life is gonna school, yeah

It doesn't matter who you are
You can be a rockstar, student, teacher
Junior, senior, loser, genius
You're gonna fall down (everyday)
You're gonna fall down (everyday)
You're gonna fall down, fall down, fall down (everyday)
And when you do you gotta rise up

Rise up
Gotta rise up
Oh, oh
Gotta rise up

Rise up, rise up now
To your higher elevation (rise up)
From the fires in the basement, sing, oh, oh
Gotta rise up, rise up, rise up now
When you're down on the pavement (gotta rise up)
Show the crowd what you're made of, sing, oh, oh
Rise up
