RISE
Mr. T.rage.dies Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It comes in waves
But I still feel the weight of every tear
That was ever shed
Over everything I said
From a drop to a flood
It pulls me under
I feel the weight of my sins
But it fuels my hunger
I don't want to drown in smoke
I just want to feel my world get a little smaller
We spent so long fighting demons
Keeping ourselves in line
What's so easy to forget is
That this time there's no (There's no)
There's no backing down
We didn't come here for consolations
We came here for the crown
So Rise! So Rise!
You can't afford to fear the fall at all
So Rise! So Rise!
You can't afford that fall!
I kill myself over every promise that I broke
If I have to suffer at least let me inspire..
All these different voices to sing together as one
We're all riddled with a thousand different vices..
I just want us to feel as if we're not
Staring down the barrel of another gun
You just need to find the strength to climb
You'll find it in yourself
You don't need anyone else
So Rise! So Rise!
I kill myself over every promise that I broke...
'Cause it was never me against the world...
It was never me against the world...
It's me versus me!
So Rise! So Rise!
So Rise! So Rise!
It was never me against the world...




It was never me against the world...
It's me versus me!
