[Verse 1]
In the passages of time, there are still lessons to be learned
The best-laid plans so often go astray
Sometimes we burn so brightly, other times we just burn
It isn't if you win, but how you play
It's how you play
[Verse 2]
I used to hit the rat race running, head down and moving fast
Always trying to gain the upper hand
Now it's time to make some changes, maybe take a few steps back
I'm drawing fewer lines into the sand
[Chorus]
We rise, we fall, but we give it our all
We fall, we rise with hope in our eyes
When it's down to the wire, we'll walk through the fire
We rise, we fall, and we're gonna stand tall
[Verse 3]
We had lightning in a bottle, we had trouble on the ropes
We dared the world to do its worst
But change is always constant, no matter all our wants and hopes
There ain't no one that always comes in first
[Chorus]
We rise, we fall, but we give it our all
We fall, we rise with hope in our eyes
When it's down to the wire, we'll walk through the fire
We rise, we fall, and we're gonna stand tall
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
We rise, we fall, but we give it our all
We fall, we rise with hope in our eyes
When it's down to the wire, we'll walk through the fire
We rise, we fall, and we're gonna stand tall
We rise, we fall, but we give it our all
We fall, we rise
When it's down to the wire, we'll walk through the fire
We rise, we fall, and we're gonna stand tall
[Outro]
We rise, we fall, we got to give it our all
We fall, we rise
