RISE
Fame On Fire Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

i won't just survive
oh, you will see me thrive
can write my story
i'm beyond the archetype
i won't just conform
no matter how you shake my core
cause my roots, they run deep, oh
oh ye of so little faith
don't doubt it, don't doubt it
victory is in my veins
i know it, i know it
and i will not negotiate
i'll fight it, i'll fight it
i will transform
when, when the fire's at my feet again
and the vultures all start circling
they're whispering, "you're out of time."
but still, i rise
this is no mistake, no accident
when you think the final end is near; think again
don't be surprised, i will still rise
i must stay conscious
through the menace and chaos
so i call on my angels
they say…
oh ye of so little faith
don't doubt it, don't doubt it
victory is in your veins
you know it, you know it
and you will not negotiate
just fight it, just fight it
and be transformed
cause when, when the fire's at my feet again
and the vultures all start circling
they're whispering, "you're out of time."
but still, i rise
this is no mistake, no accident
when you think the final end is near; think again
don't be surprised, i will still rise
don't doubt it, don't doubt
oh oh, oh oh
you know it, you know it
still rise




just fight it, just fight it
don't be surprised, i will still rise

I dedicate this song to my wheelchair and my disability. I'm a 24 years old wheelchair girl, not walking for 18 years already. My doctors and my physiotherapist just said that my case is difficult and I may never walk again because it has passed a really long time. I'm disconnecting myself from them and from everyone else and being alone for once. I promised myself and decided to work by myself and listen to no one. I'm working hard with only this song on background. I don't know how much time it will need to be a normal person again, but when the day will come, I will come here in this comment and say thank you for being with me through all my pain and fight, that will mean that I finally made it.

Please remember - you're already 'normal'. You actually 'only' can't walk. But you're strong and you can do it 💪
