[Verse 1]
Steel in our teeth
Dust in our lungs
Blood on our sleeves
But we’re still young
Boot prints burned
Into this road
Every scar
Is a secret code
[Pre-Chorus]
They push us down
Down
Down
Try to dim that fire inside
Hear that pound
Pound
Pound
That’s the heart they can’t divide (hey!)
[Chorus]
When the weight of the world tries to close our eyes
We don’t fold — we’re built to rise
Every crack in the ground is a place we climb
Every fall just sharpens our fight
When the weight of the world tries to close our eyes
We don’t fold — we’re built to rise (built to rise)
[Verse 2]
Boots in the mud
Hands in the flame
Call me by hurt
I’ll answer by name
Fear draws a line
We draw it crossed
Turn every loss
To a louder cause
[Pre-Chorus]
They push us down
Down
Down
But they can’t chain every side
Hear that sound
Sound
Sound
It’s the storm we hold inside (oh!)
[Chorus]
When the weight of the world tries to close our eyes
We don’t fold — we’re built to rise
Every crack in the ground is a place we climb
Every fall just sharpens our fight
When the weight of the world tries to close our eyes
We don’t fold — we’re built to rise (built to rise)
[Bridge]
Bite on the bit
Feel the bones shake
Every doubt
Is a wall we break
One more breath
One more try
If we’re still here
We’re still alive (still alive)
[Chorus]
When the weight of the world tries to close our eyes
We don’t fold — we’re built to rise
Every crack in the ground is a place we climb
Every fall just sharpens our fight
When the weight of the world tries to close our eyes
We don’t fold — we’re built to rise
When the weight of the world screams “stay inside”
We walk through fire
We’re built to rise
