Rise lyrics

[Verse 1] I won’t just survive Oh, you will see me thrive Can write my story I’m beyond the archetype I won’t just conform No matter how you shake my core Cause my roots they run deep, oh

[Pre-Chorus] Oh ye of so little faith Don’t doubt it, don’t doubt it Victory is in my veins I know it, I know it And I will not negotiate I’ll fight it, I’ll fight it I will transform

[Chorus] When, when the fire’s at my feet again And the vultures all start circling They’re whispering, “you’re out of time.” But still I rise This is no mistake, no accident When you think the final end is near; think again Don’t be surprised, I will still rise

[Verse 2] I must stay conscious Through the menace and chaos So I call on my angels They say…

[Pre-Chorus] Oh ye of so little faith Don’t doubt it, don’t doubt it Victory is in your veins You know it, you know it And you will not negotiate Just fight it, just fight it And be transformed

[Chorus] Cause when, when the fire’s at my feet again And the vultures all start circling They’re whispering, “you’re out of time.” But still I rise This is no mistake, no accident When you think the final end is near Think again Don’t be surprised, I will still rise

[Outro] Don’t doubt it, don’t doubt Oh oh You know it, you know it Still rise Just fight it, just fight it Don’t be surprised, I will still rise

NBC OLYMPICS FEATURES NEW KATY PERRY ANTHEM “RISE”

Song to Serve as a Soundtrack for NBC Olympics’ Promotion & Coverage of the Rio Games

“Rise,” a new song composed and recorded by Katy Perry, will be used by NBC Olympics as an anthem leading up to and throughout the 2016 Rio Olympics, both parties announced today. “Rise” is available now exclusively for streaming athttp://smarturl.it/KPriseAM and for download at http://smarturl.it/KPrise.

“This is a song that’s been brewing inside me for years, that has finally come to the surface. I was inspired to finish it now, rather than save it for my next album, because now more than ever, there is a need for our world to unite,” said Katy Perry. “I know that together we can rise above the fear – in our country, and around the world. I can’t think of a better example than the Olympic athletes, as they gather in Rio with their strength and fearlessness, to remind us how we ALL can come together, with the resolve to be the best we can be. I hope this song can inspire us to heal, unite, and rise together. I am honored that NBC Olympics has chosen to use it as an anthem before and during the Rio Games.”

“Rise” will be featured in promotional spots to run across NBCUniversal’s broadcast, cable, digital, social, and radio platforms. NBC Olympics and Katy are also collaborating on an original “Rise” cinema spot that will be seen in more than 20,000 movie theaters beginning today.
