The sun feels different today
Just a little warmer and a little brighter
Smiling on a new day
And I’m ready for what comes my way

There’s a hundred million reasons, I can’t ignore
There’s a hundred million lies being told
There’s a hundred million stories, how can I be sure
That the glitter in your eye is gold?

So I’ll get my head right, stay low to the ground
Bob and weaving, counter punching
Working, thinking, singing, loving
Teaching, learning, forgiving and growing

It’s the way we rise
It doesn’t matter cause it’s always something
Yeah it’s always something
It’s the way we rise
It doesn’t matter cause it’s always something
Yeah it’s always something

They’ll be cloudy days
Standing in a rain storm, only you can make yours
In your darkest days
You can choose your own way

There’s been a hundred million seasons, you can be sure
There’s a hundred million ways we’re wrong
There’s been a hundred million stories, you can be told
But when it comes to truth there’s only one

So get your head right, stay low to the ground
Bob and weaving, counter punching
Working, thinking, singing, loving
Teaching, learning, forgiving and growing

It’s the way we rise, it doesn’t matter cause it’s always something
Yeah, it’s always something
It’s the way we rise, it doesn’t matter cause it’s always something
Yeah, it’s always something
It’s the way we rise, it doesn’t matter cause it’s always something
Yeah, it’s always something
It’s the way we rise, it doesn’t matter cause it’s always something
Yeah, it’s always something

So I’ll get my head right, stay low to the ground
Bob and weaving, counter punching
Working, thinking, singing, loving
Teaching, learning, forgiving and growing

It’s the way we rise, it doesn’t matter cause it’s always something
Yeah, it’s always something
It’s the way we rise, it doesn’t matter cause it’s always something
Yeah, it’s always something
It’s the way we rise, it doesn’t matter cause it’s always something
Yeah, it’s always something
It’s the way we rise, it doesn’t matter cause it’s always something
Yeah, it’s always something

Other lyrics by Oteil Burbridge & Lamar Williams. Jr:

Country Road

Take to the highway, lend me your name Your way and my way are one in the same Mama don’t understand it, she wants to know where I’ve been I have to be some kind of fool …

Hush

Hush, don’t crack a smile Life is so precious and you should mark your words Oh I said, hush Don’t you shed a tear Forget about it, let’s just feel good right now …

If You See Their Lips Moving

Suddenly the road ahead is clear The rain is gone, the doubt and the fear Everything is new to me now But also familiar somehow And looking back on the days of my youth …

Love & War

If you could do it, if you could go back in life If there was a way to change your wrongs to right Do you remember when you were just a child? The first time that you …

The Way We Rise

The sun feels different today Just a little warmer and a little brighter Smiling on a new day And I’m ready for what comes my way There’s a hundred million reasons, …
