Someday I May Rise About it All

Trouble followed me on down

To the lonely side of town

And sat with me and watched my teardrops fall

Life's a monkey on my back

But I take comfort from the fact

That someday I may rise above it all

Devil voices in my head

They were laughing when they said

The boy who dared to run can't even crawl

Though my angel wings are broken

There's no reason to stop hopin'

That someday I may rise above it all

And the next time that we meet

If you pass me on the street

You'll swear my feet don't even touch the ground

Though right now that's not the case

And I've fallen far from grace

I pray someday I may rise above it all

And the next time that we meet

If you pass me on the street

You'll swear my feet don't even touch the ground

Though right now that's not the case

And I've fallen far from grace

I pray someday I may rise above it all

I pray someday I may rise above it all
