[Verse 1]
When the day hit hard, I was bent, not broke
Head heavy like a drum, just tryna cope
Then I saw that kid get up through smoke
Skinny little grin, still ready to go
One more try, one more step
Blood on the floor, but no regret
I learned that pain ain't the final scene
You can stand back up in a shattered dream
Old scars talk, but I talk back
Eyes on the frame when the world goes black
Every loss got a lesson sewn in
I keep moving like the next arc's win
[Pre-Chorus]
When my chest gets tight
I hear that fight
When my room feels cold
I hold that light
[Chorus]
Anime got me up
Anime got me up
When I wanna quit
It pulls me back from the edge
Anime got me up
Anime got me up
From the worst kind of days
It gives my heart some breath
(Anime got me up)
[Verse 2]
I seen heroes cry, seen villains bleed
Seen quiet kids become what they need
Seen a lonely soul with a broken trust
Turn that hurt to a blade and thrust
That kind of fire hit me deep
Made me promise what I couldn't keep
Now I keep going when the pressure bites
Like a long road scene in the neon night
Not just fights, it's the way they grow
The tiny hope in the afterglow
The laugh after tears, the hand held high
The stubborn will when the odds run dry
[Pre-Chorus]
When my name feels small
I hear that call
When the walls cave in
I don't fall
[Chorus]
Anime got me up
Anime got me up
When I wanna quit
It pulls me back from the edge
Anime got me up
Anime got me up
From the worst kind of days
It gives my heart some breath
(Anime got me up)
[Bridge]
So let me burn through doubt
Let me shout it out
Every bruise I wore
Got me wanting more
I was down, now I rise
Same fire in my eyes
If the world's too much
I keep that spark in touch
[Chorus]
Anime got me up
Anime got me up
When I wanna quit
It pulls me back from the edge
Anime got me up
Anime got me up
From the worst kind of days
It gives my heart some breath
(Anime got me up)
