Lyric

When the day starts heavy, I still choose the road

I let the storm pass through me, then I shine like gold

Every scar is a river learning where to go

And every hard goodbye can soften in the glow

I’ve seen the young ones bend, I’ve seen the old ones stand

Same moon on different shoulders, same fire in each hand

We all carry our thunder, we all carry our sighs

But grace keeps finding windows in our tired eyes

So breathe in slow

Let the sharp edges go

What was breaking you down

Can still lift you now

Hold on, hold on

We rise again

Hold on, hold on

Through the fear and rain

Love still stays

When the hard days fade

Hold on, hold on

We rise again

By the evening hour, I learned a kinder pace

Not every open door deserves a place

Some mouths wear silver, but they hide a blade

So I keep my heart guarded in a gentle shade

At work, I watch the shadows try to steal the flame

Sweet talk in the corner, but it all sounds the same

So I move with purpose, I move with care

I plant my peace like a field in prayer

So breathe in slow

Let the sharp edges go

What was breaking you down

Can still lift you now

Hold on, hold on

We rise again

Hold on, hold on

Through the fear and rain

Love still stays

When the hard days fade

Hold on, hold on

We rise again

And on a holiday, when the whole sky feels wide

I remember every version I have carried inside

The child, the seeker, the one with trembling hands

They all became a lighthouse across the land

So if your chest is crowded, let it open like dawn

If your voice has been buried, let it sing on

No need to be perfect, no need to be stone

You were made to bend, not break, not go alone

Oh-oh, we rise

Oh-oh, we rise

Heart by heart

We rise

Hold on, hold on

We rise again

Hold on, hold on

Through the fear and rain

Love still stays

When the hard days fade

Hold on, hold on

We rise again

Hold on, hold on

Let the dark unwind

Hold on, hold on

There is still some time

For the bruised to bloom

For the lost to find

Hold on, hold on

We rise again
