Lyrics
[Verse 1] I came in with my collar up Shoes tapped soft on the worn-out wood Brushes kiss the snare like rain And the room said, "yeah, you should" Bass line walking like it knows my name Keys got that church in the flame I been broke, I been blessed, I been both Still I step to the mic with my game [Pre-Chorus] Hands up high, let it shake One more note and the walls awake Say my name, make it ring I can turn this whole night into a thing [Chorus] Oh, we rise tonight Oh, we rise tonight Hands in the air Let that old room shine Oh, we rise tonight Oh, we rise tonight Say it loud with me We were born for the climb [Verse 2] Now the sax slid in with a holy cry And the crowd leaned close, no one stayed shy I got that grin when the kick rolled hard And the floor turned loose like a backyard From the first small spark to the final blaze We kept that feeling for days and days Every scar in my chest lit gold When the whole front row started singing bold [Pre-Chorus] Hands up high, let it shake One more note and the walls awake Say my name, make it ring I can turn this whole night into a thing [Chorus] Oh, we rise tonight Oh, we rise tonight Hands in the air Let that old room shine Oh, we rise tonight Oh, we rise tonight Say it loud with me We were born for the climb [Bridge] When the lights cut low I still hear that roar Every bruise I wore Led me here for more Then the choir in my chest Hits that final line And I swear, I swear We were made to shine [Chorus] Oh, we rise tonight Oh, we rise tonight Hands in the air Let that old room shine Oh, we rise tonight Oh, we rise tonight Say it loud with me We were born for the climb
