[Verse 1] The hall was cold with rain My name on broken stone I knelt beside the ash And heard the old road call Your silence lit the dark A spark beneath the dust I carried every wound Like iron in my chest [Pre-Chorus] Then the sky began to move And the ground replied below One breath, one step, one vow I felt the fire grow [Chorus] I rise from the ruin I rise, I rise (hey, I rise) With every scar awake I rise tonight I rise for the fallen I rise, I rise (oh, I rise) The crown was never given So I take the light [Verse 2] The banners stayed asleep The towers lost their song But in the quiet hours I learned what made me strong I watched the younger dawn Break glass across the lake And in that sudden gold I knew my hands could make [Pre-Chorus] Then the sky began to move And the ground replied below One breath, one step, one vow I felt the fire grow [Chorus] I rise from the ruin I rise, I rise (hey, I rise) With every scar awake I rise tonight I rise for the fallen I rise, I rise (oh, I rise) The crown was never given So I take the light [Bridge] If I return, let it be With the storm behind my name If I fall, let it be On a road that dares to change [Final Chorus] I rise from the ruin I rise, I rise (hey, I rise) With every scar awake I rise tonight I rise for the fallen I rise, I rise (oh, I rise) The crown was never given So I take the light I rise from the ruin I rise, I rise (I rise) And the whole world hears me As I take the light
