Rise up Lyrics by Ignite

A War Against You

2016

The purpose of life is not the path of most resistance
The struggles inside will bring you to your knees
Who am I if i won't rise up?
Who am I if I fail?
Now it's time to go the distance
Now it's time to prevail

For the first time in my life
We can't fail
For the first time in our lives
We can't fail

I can't turn my back and just walk away
So many times I've watched you suffer from this pain
In these final hours this too shall be fine
The moment will come through the darkest of times
You have to rise up
Fight to live for another day

These negative times just lead to more indifference
We rationalize and plead to no avail
How could I just turn and back up?
How could I walk away?
When I was given so much freely
How could I ever complain?

I can't turn my back and just walk away
So many times I've watched you suffer from this pain
In these final hours this too shall be fine
The moment will come through the darkest of times
You have to rise up
Fight to live for another day

This is the context of our lives
These are the best of days
Our hardships will define
Who lives free again

I can't turn my back and just walk away
So many times I've watched you suffer from this pain
In these final hours this too shall be fine
The moment will come through the darkest of times
You have to rise up
Fight to live for another day
