Rise
Building 429



What’s a boy supposed to see 
When he’s staring in the mirror at age thirteen? Where’s
the man he wants to be? 
He must be hiding behind the lies that he’s too weak


Well, I was there when they pushed you down 
Wiped the blood from your knees 
When you got up off the ground


'Cause no one ever knew you the way I did 
They never saw the man you’d be 
When they laughed at the awkward kid

And no one else believed that you could fly 
They couldn’t see the man you’d be 
But it’s wonderful to watch you rise 
To watch you rise


What could help him understand 
When he’s staring at the scars that mar his gentle hands? 
Where’s the mercy that he needs 
It must be hiding behind the cut that makes them bleed


I was there when they pushed you down 
Wiped the blood from your knees 
When you got up off the ground

'Cause no one ever knew you the way 
I did They never saw the man you’d be 
When they laughed at the awkward kid


And no one else believed that you could fly 
They couldn’t see the man you’d be 
But it’s wonderful to watch you rise 
To watch you rise


I was there when they crowned you king 
Wiped the blood from your feet 
As you hung on the tree

'Cause no one ever knew you the way 
I did They never saw you in the child 
When they laughed at his awkwardness


And no one else believed that you could fly 
They couldn’t see the man you’d be 
But it’s wonderful to watch you rise 
To watch you rise
We'll watch you rise We'll watch you rise
Just to watch you rise 
Yeah, to watch you rise
