Lyrics

Rise

[Verse 1]

I was who I always needed

Even when I couldn't see it

Even when the waves came crashing down

I was always somehow ashamed

Tryna always hide in my skin

Now I feel the rain come pouring down

[Pre-Chorus]

You always said that I should hide it

Don't know why I held my light in

Like a sapphire, now I'm shining out

Even when it wasn't easy

Even when you couldn't see me

I think I always knew deep down inside

You were gonna watch me

[Chorus]

Rise

Rise

Rise

Hey, rise up with the waves

[Verse 2]

You were always there for me

But didn't know what I was made of

The pressure only made this diamond

Stronger, stronger, stronger

[Pre-Chorus]

You always said that I should hide it

Don't know why I held my light in

Like a sapphire, now I'm shining out

Even when it wasn't easy

Even when you couldn't see me

I think I always knew deep down inside

You were gonna watch me

[Chorus]

Rise

Rise

Rise

Hey, rise up with the waves

Rise

Rise

Rise

Hey, rise up with the waves

[Bridge]

Woah, woah, woah, woah

Woah, woah, woah

Hey, rise up with the waves

Woah, woah, woah, woah

Woah, woah, woah

Today, rise up with the waves

Rise up with the waves

[Chorus]

Rise

Rise (Ooh)

Rise

Hey, rise up with the waves

[Outro]

I was who I always needed

Even when I couldn't see it
