[Verse 1] I knew your hands by the scars You carried the storm so long Bent by the weight of shadows Still you stood, still you stood strong I held the map in my chest You held the fire in yours When the dark came pressing close You reached for the open door [Pre-Chorus] Now the ground starts to shake And the old walls fold Hear my heart say your name As the night lets go [Chorus] Rise, rise, my hero rise ( Rise, rise, my hero rise ) Out of the ash, into the sky ( Into the sky ) Rise, rise, my hero rise I’m here, I’m here by your side ( By your side ) [Verse 2] You were the one left behind With the ache no one could see But every crack in your armor Was a road back into me I learned your silence like prayer You learned my tears like rain Now every step that you take Turns the ruin into flame [Pre-Chorus] Now the ground starts to shake And the old walls fold Hear my heart say your name As the night lets go [Chorus] Rise, rise, my hero rise ( Rise, rise, my hero rise ) Out of the ash, into the sky ( Into the sky ) Rise, rise, my hero rise I’m here, I’m here by your side ( By your side ) [Bridge] If the world comes down again We will stand in the fall Hand in hand through the dust We were built for it all [Final Chorus] Rise, rise, my hero rise ( Rise, rise, my hero rise ) Out of the ash, into the sky ( Into the sky ) Rise, rise, my hero rise You are alive, and so am I ( So am I ) Rise, rise, my hero rise Forever mine, forever bright ( Forever bright )
