[Intro]
Trumpets screaming in my face
Choir rising like a wave
I’ve been doubted every day
Watch me dance on all that weight (yeah)
[Verse 1]
They said sit down
I turned that chair to a throne
Turned every “maybe”
To a “bet, that’s done, it’s owned”
Backpack full of
Late nights, cheap coffee, bad phones
Still my name ring out
Like a bell in catacombs
You don’t like my pace?
Then blink and you’ll miss it (skrrt)
Every closed door?
I turned the key different
Every “too loud”
Became my new mission
I’m the voice in the hall
You hear through the distance (listen)
[Pre-Chorus]
I took all that doubt
Used it like fuel in my veins
Every time they counted me out
I just added up the change (yeah)
[Chorus]
You can’t bring me down
I’m already high
Trumpets in my chest
Blowing up the sky
Choir in my back
Singing I’ll be fine
You can’t, you can’t
You can’t bring me down this time
You can’t bring me down
I’m out of your reach
Every word you throw
Turns gold in my teeth
Choirs shout my name
Like a winning team
You can’t, you can’t
You can’t bring me down from this dream (woo)
[Verse 2]
I used to choke
On every side-eye stare
Now I treat your silence
Like fanfare in the air
Every rumor that you started?
Built my armor, I swear
Now I walk through the room
Feel the pressure, I don’t care
Fast lane
Heart rate drumming in triplets
Past pain
I just flip it to business
Last place
Now I’m lapping the limits
I’m the proof
You can’t cancel the spirit (nah)
[Pre-Chorus]
All your little words
They just spark up my fire
Every time you push me down
I come back flying higher (higher)
[Chorus]
You can’t bring me down
I’m already high
Trumpets in my chest
Blowing up the sky
Choir in my back
Singing I’ll be fine
You can’t, you can’t
You can’t bring me down this time
You can’t bring me down
I’m out of your reach
Every word you throw
Turns gold in my teeth
Choirs shout my name
Like a winning team
You can’t, you can’t
You can’t bring me down from this dream
[Bridge]
[Choir chanting, call-and-response]
Can’t bring me down (can’t bring me down)
Can’t shut me up (can’t shut me up)
I rise, I rise (I rise, I rise)
When it’s getting rough (when it’s getting rough)
Solo in my soul
Let the brass cut through (yeah)
I survived the storm
Now I dance in the bruise (hey!)
[Chorus]
You can’t bring me down
I’m already high
Trumpets in my chest
Blowing up the sky
Choir in my back
Singing I’ll be fine
You can’t, you can’t
You can’t bring me down this time
You can’t bring me down
I’m out of your reach
Every word you throw
Turns gold in my teeth
Choirs shout my name
Like a winning team
You can’t, you can’t
You can’t bring me down from this dream (yeah)
