[Verse 1]
I came in bent, not broken
Dust in my mouth, still strokin'
Cold hands on a second chance
Blood on the plan, I still advance
They said “stay down,” I said “watch me”
Counted my scars like trophies
Every bruise built this frame
Every fall put fire in my veins
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that roar in my chest
Built from the ones who left
I don’t fold, I don’t bow
I was made for this now
[Chorus]
Beat the odds, beat the odds
I’m still standing, hard as a god
Beat the odds, beat the odds
Took the hit, now look what I got
I rise, I rise
From the wreckage, I rise
Beat the odds, beat the odds
I’m alive, I’m alive
[Verse 2]
Mud on my boots, still marching
Dark in the pits, I’m sparking
Every locked door learned my name
Every dead end fed the flame
They stacked the hill, I climbed it
Threw their weight, I timed it
Hands in the air, I broke through
Now the whole damn sky feels new
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that roar in my chest
Built from the ones who left
I don’t fold, I don’t bow
I was made for this now
[Chorus]
Beat the odds, beat the odds
I’m still standing, hard as a god
Beat the odds, beat the odds
Took the hit, now look what I got
I rise, I rise
From the wreckage, I rise
Beat the odds, beat the odds
I’m alive, I’m alive
[Bridge]
Knees in the dust, I remember
Every night that broke my temper
Now the pain turns straight to steel
Now the wound is what I wield
[Shredding Guitar Solo]
[Breakdown]
Get up
Get up
No more knees
No more chains
Get up
Get up
Take your place
Take your claim
[Final Chorus]
Beat the odds, beat the odds
I’m still standing, hard as a god
Beat the odds, beat the odds
Took the hit, now look what I got
I rise, I rise
From the wreckage, I rise
Beat the odds, beat the odds
I’m alive, I’m alive
