Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You wanted me gone
你想要我离开
Like the stars hidden by the glowing sun
就像躲在升起的太阳后的星辰一样
But how does my heart
但是我的心怎么想呢
Not feel broken from your words that scar
已经结痂的心对你的话已经无动于衷了
You hoped I′d be blind
你希望我什么都看不见
Didn't want me to see my star shine
不想让我看见我的星光闪耀
That just ain′t right
这是不可能的
I'll blaze the night sky
我将会点燃夜空
Set flame to the doubt
用火焰烧尽质疑
I'll fly through the clouds
我将从云中穿行
I′ll rise I′ll rise
我会升起,会升起
Like a phoenix
像凤凰一样
Like a phoenix
像凤凰一样
I'll Rise
我会升起
I′ll Rise
我会升起
I'll Rise
我会升起
I′ll Rise
我会升起
I was alone
我不是孤单的
Like I tree with no leaves in the fall
就像一棵叶子落尽依然挺立的树
I tuned when you called
当你呼唤时我应和
I looked for "Right"
我寻找着真理
But you left me with me "Wrong"
但是你因为我的错误离开
So now I see
所以现在我明白
The only way to fly is free...
自由是飞翔的唯一手段
I'll blaze the night sky
我将会点燃夜空
Set flame to the doubt
用火焰烧尽质疑
I′ll fly through the clouds
我将从云中穿行
I'll rise I'll rise
我会升起,会升起
Like a phoenix
像凤凰一样
Like a phoenix
像凤凰一样
I′ll Rise
我会升起
I′ll Rise
我会升起
I'll Rise
我会升起
I′ll Rise
我会升起
I'll blaze the night sky
我将会点燃夜空
Set flame to the doubt
用火焰烧尽质疑
I′ll fly through the clouds
我将从云中穿行
I'll rise I′ll rise
我会升起,会升起
Like a phoenix
像凤凰一样
Like a phoenix
像凤凰一样
I'll Rise
我会升起
I'll Rise
我会升起
I′ll Rise
我会升起
I′ll Rise
我会升起
I'll Rise
我会升起




I′ll Rise
我会升起

Line by Line Meaning

You wanted me gone
You wished for my departure


Like the stars hidden by the glowing sun
Similar to the obscured stars when the sun rises


But how does my heart
But why does my heart


Not feel broken from your words that scar
Not feel shattered by your hurtful words that left a lasting impact


You hoped I′d be blind
You desired for me to be oblivious


Didn't want me to see my star shine
Didn't want me to acknowledge my potential and talents


That just ain′t right
That is morally wrong


I'll blaze the night sky
I will illuminate the darkness


Set flame to the doubt
Dispel any uncertainties


I'll fly through the clouds
I will soar above obstacles


I′ll rise I′ll rise
I will ascend, I will ascend


Like a phoenix
Like a mythical bird that rises from its own ashes


I was alone
I felt isolated


Like I tree with no leaves in the fall
Like a tree that is bare in the autumn season


I tuned when you called
I responded when you summoned me


I looked for "Right"
I searched for correctness


But you left me with me "Wrong"
But you provided me with errors


So now I see
Therefore, I realize


The only way to fly is free...
The sole way to take flight is to be unrestrained


I′ll Rise
I will ascend


I'll blaze the night sky
I will illuminate the darkness

I will ascend


Like a phoenix
Like a mythical bird that rises from its own ashes

I will ascend


I'll Rise
I will ascend


I′ll Rise
I will ascend


I′ll Rise
I will ascend


I'll Rise
I will ascend


I′ll Rise
I will ascend
