Redemption & Rise

Redemption

You say I make you nervous, a tragedy

I'm a beautiful disaster, a reckoning

You wonder how I got this way (you wonder how I got this way)

You think I'm someone to be saved, someone to clean up and tame

Oh somethings never change, never change, oh

You think I would look pretty on your arm

Once you cover up my bruises and battle scars

But it always ends the same (but it always ends the same)

Can't bear the things I've had to face

Got you crying on your knees in pain

Oh, somethings never change, never change, oh

You'll break your back to make me feel again

Suffocate to make me breathe again

Lose your mind from endless praying

Somethings never change, never change, oh

Redemption never came

I stopped asking for forgiveness 'cause you should know

Only fools tread where the angels fear to go

But you keep trying to get too close

(But you keep trying to get too close)

Saved myself by turning into stone

So save your judgment 'cause you just don't know

But somethings never change, never change, oh

They say I should feel guilty and change my ways

Leaving crumpled bodies in my wake

Swear I didn't mean to make them break

(Swear I didn't mean to make them break)

But they're so delicate and so mundane

And they keep coming like a moth to flame

Oh somethings never change, never change, mmm-mmh

You'll break your back to make me feel again

Suffocate to make me breathe again

Lose your mind from endless praying

Somethings never change, never change, oh

Redemption never came

Rise by katy perry

I won't just survive

Oh, you will see me thrive

Can't write my story

I'm beyond the archetype

I won't just conform

No matter how you shake my core

'Cause my roots, they run deep, oh

Oh, ye of so little faith

Don't doubt it, don't doubt it

Victory is in my veins

I know it, I know it

And I will not negotiate

I'll fight it, I'll fight it

I will transform

When, when the fire's at my feet again

And the vultures all start circling

They're whispering, you're out of time

But still, I rise

This is no mistake, no accident

When you think the final nail is in, think again

Don't be surprised, I will still rise

I must stay conscious

Through the madness and chaos

So I call on my angels

They say

Oh, ye of so little faith

Don't doubt it, don't doubt it

Victory is in your veins

You know it, you know it

And you will not negotiate

Just fight it, just fight it

And be transformed

'Cause when, when the fire's at my feet again

And the vultures all start circling

They're whispering, you're out of time

But still, I rise

This is no mistake, no accident

When you think the final nail is in, think again

Don't be surprised, I will still rise

Don't doubt it, don't doubt

Oh, oh, oh, oh

You know it, you know it

Still rise

Just fight it, just fight it

Don't be surprised, I will still rise
