Listen now as I confide, I've been abused and criticized
There've been times I've given in
I've been down and up again
Every step I take up hill saps my strength and bends my will
But I won't fail, and I won't cry
I won't give up until I die
(Until I die, I die)
Let it go, we're all a part of this
You should know that we will rise again
Excuse me now, as I describe how I've been used and victimized
I've been so low and I've been so high
I slipped away and I held on tight
Every moment drowns away the density beneath my faith
But I won't fail, and I won't cry
I won't give up until I die
(Until I die, I die)
Let it go, we're all a part of this
You should know that we will rise again
Cry alone (let it go)
Scream at night
Hate the darkness
Need the light
Cry alone (you should know)
Scream at night
Hate the darkness
We will rise again
(Well, we) cry alone
Scream at night
Hate the darkness
‘Cause we need the light
Let it go, we're all a part of this
You should know that we will rise again
Cry alone (let it go)
Scream at night
Hate the darkness
Need the light
Cry alone (you should know)
Scream at night
Hate the darkness
We will rise again
Rise again, again
I won't give up until I die
