[Verse 1]
Every morning
I thank for life
Steam from the cup
Quiet kitchen light
Bare feet on a cold floor
Still
I breathe in peace
I choose this fight

[Chorus]
Rise with the sunrise
Eyes to the sky
Hope on the horizon
Color running wide
Through the struggle
I still rise
With faith and love
I survive
Rise with the sunrise
One more time

[Verse 2]
Bills on the table
Heavy news
Old scars aching like they’re brand new
But I hear laughter from the other room
Small hands grabbing mine
Pulling me through

[Chorus]
Rise with the sunrise
Eyes to the sky
Hope on the horizon
Color running wide
Through the struggle
I still rise
With faith and love
I survive
Rise with the sunrise
One more time

[Bridge]
I’ve been broken
I’ve been bruised (oh-oh)
Still I’m standing here
Choosing truth
Every heartbeat is a sign
I’m not done
I’m still alive

[Chorus]
Rise with the sunrise
Eyes to the sky
Hope on the horizon
Color running wide
Through the struggle
I still rise
With faith and love
I survive
Rise with the sunrise
One more time (one more time)
With faith and love
I survive (I survive)
