Lyrics

[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

When I wanna quit

It pulls me back from the edge

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

When I wanna quit

It pulls me back from the edge

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

When I wanna quit

It pulls me back from the edge

Anime got me up

From the worst kind of days

It gives my heart some breath

(Anime got me up)
