LETRARiseArmy Of Me

I've been reaching for the stars.
I've been stretching out so far.
Am I getting any closer
than I've ever been before?

I was lying in the gutter.
I was crawling in the street.
Now the servants are all sitting
in the most distinguished seats.
So rise, rise,
Like a star, you will rise.

I'm rebuilding this house
that was taken by the waves.
Oh, this time, I'll make a mansion,
Oh, this time, I'm not afraid.

I was lying in the gutter
and I was crawling in the street.
I was looking for an answer,
Well, the answer, it found me.
So rise, rise,
Like a star, you will rise.
Rise, rise,
Like a star, you will rise.

Well, strengthen my ankles,
It's time to walk.
Rise up, rise up.
My heart's unblocked(?)
and I have been hiding for much too long.
It's time.

Rise, rise,
Like a star, you will rise.
Rise, rise,
Like a star, you will rise.
Rise, rise,
Like a star, you will rise.
Rise, rise,
Like a star, you will rise.

Rise, rise,
Like a star, you will rise.
