I won't just survive
Oh, you will see me thrive
Can't 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
Oh, ye of so little faith (Don't doubt it, don't doubt it)
Oh, 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, oh
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
There is no mistake, no accident
When you think the final nail is in
Think again, don't be surprised
I will still rise
I must stay conscious
Through the madness and chaos
So I call on my angels, they say
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
Oh, when, when the fire's at my feet again (When)
And the vultures all start circling (When)
They're whispering, "You're out of time"
But still I rise (Rise)
This is no mistake, no accident (Rise)
When you think the final nail is in
Think again, don't be surprised
I will still rise
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)
You're out of time
But still I rise
Rise, rise, rise
You're out of time,
But still I rise
