I’m not that once upon a time
Me I tell a different story
Not the same glitter in my eyes
Like the fairy tales they told me
I had to see some things that I wish the world didn’t show me
But it made me who I am and the rest is herstory
I’ve been lifted
I’ve been let down
I’ve been chewed up and spit out and shut down
I’ve been praised, then erased
A million no’s had me testing my faith
Still I rise every morning
No I can’t be broken
Still I rise
I rise, I rise, I rise
Still I rise
I rise, I rise, I rise
I got the heart of a fighter
Don’t let this pretty face mislead you
I learned early on that people will mistreat you
Love runs through my veins
I’ll never do what they do
They tried to bring me down
I found a way to shine through
I’ve been lifted
I’ve been let down
I’ve been chewed up and spit out and shut down
I’ve been praised, then erased
A million no’s had me testing my faith
Still I rise every morning
No I can’t be broken
Still I rise
I rise, I rise, I rise
Still I rise
I rise, I rise, I rise
Still I rise, Still I rise, Still I rise
Still I rise, Still I rise
I’ve been lifted
I’ve been let down
I’ve been chewed up and spit out and shut down
I’ve been praised, then erased
A million no’s had me testing my faith
Still I rise every morning
No I can’t be broken
Still I rise
I rise, I rise, I rise
Still I rise
I rise, I rise, I rise
Still I rise every morning
No I can’t be broken
Still I rise
I rise, I rise, I rise
Still I rise
I rise, I rise, I rise
