This road is anything but simple
Twisted like a riddle
I've seen high, and I've seen low
So loud, the voices over my doubts
Telling me to give up
To pack up, leave town
Even so I had to believe
Impossible means nothing to me
So can you lift me up?
And turn the ashes into flames
Cause I have overcome
More than words can ever say
And I've been given hope
That there's a light on up the hall
And a day will come when the fight is won
And I think that day has just begun
Somewhere, yeah everybody starts there
You're counting on a small prayer
Lost in a nightmare
But I'm here, and suddenly it's so clear
The struggle through the long years
It's hard for me to outrun my fears
But everything that's worth having
Comes with trials worth withstanding
So can you lift me up?
And turn the ashes into flames
Cause I have overcome
More than words can ever say
And I've been given hope
That there's a light on up the hall
And a day will come when the fight is won
And I think that day has just begun
Oh lift me up, oh lift me up
Oh lift me up, oh lift me up
Down and out is overrated
And I need to be elevated
Looking up is not enough, no
I would rather rise above, oh, oh, oh
So can you lift me up?
And turn the ashes into flames
Cause I have overcome
More than words can ever say
And I've been given hope
That there's a light on up the hall
And a day will come when the fight is won
And I think that day has just begun
Oh, just begun
Lift me up, lift me up, yeah
Lift me up, lift me up
Lift me up
