Lyrics
[Verse 1] I wake with the weight plates cold Thumbs wrap tight, i hold Old scar on my palm New fire in my bones First set, let it talk Slow count, steady walk You said keep going, son So i don’t quit at all [Pre-Chorus] And when my breath gets thin I lean into the bend I hear your voice again Say, “lift it, then begin” [Chorus] For you, i rise For you, i rise I carry the dark And i carry the shine For you, i rise For you, i rise Heart in the steel And steel in my mind [Verse 2] Late shift, sore back Tape on the rack Sweat on my sleeves But i still come back One more rep, one more Crowded room, closed door Even when my name feels small I stand a little more Second heartbeat, second light Your faith in my fight I put it on my shoulders And i make it right [Pre-Chorus] And when the room goes quiet I hear that steady thread No sermon, just the truth That keeps me moving ahead [Chorus] For you, i rise For you, i rise I carry the dark And i carry the shine For you, i rise For you, i rise Heart in the steel And steel in my mind [Bridge] If i fold, i fold into grace If i break, i break in place But i know this heavy road Can still make a man glow So i breathe in, count slow Set my feet, let it show Every bruise got a name Every scar got a flame [Chorus] For you, i rise For you, i rise I carry the dark And i carry the shine For you, i rise For you, i rise Heart in the steel And steel in my mind
