[Verse 1]
Every time that I try to break through
Feel it but then I can’t come to
Ask myself what do I live for?
Turn around and walk out that door
Won’t give in to the way it should be
Only I know how to live, can’t stop me
It’s not about chains and locks, no
It’s time to rise up and get out
[Chorus]
I won’t waste this day
Let you check what I say
Don’t you try and push me
I’ll rise up and then you’ll see
Set this life in flames
You will know my name
Turn my wounds to strength
I’ll let go and I’ll be free
[Verse 2]
Try and tell me what’s wrong and right
Like you have some kind of insight
Don’t you know it’s not up to you
And it’s not just me, it’s them too
Sneakin’ around in the dead of the night
Pretend like you’rе fighting the good fight
But you’re not called to bе the jury
All high and mighty, what’s your hurry
[Chorus]
I won’t waste this day
Let you check what I say
Don’t you try and push me
I’ll rise up and then you’ll see
Set this life in flames
You will know my name
Turn my wounds to strength
I’ll let go and I’ll be free
[Bridge]
I will live for what I know is true
I can stand up tall, raise above it all
And I refuse to fall prey to you
I can be the one, when it’s said and done
[Chorus]
I won’t waste this day
Let you check what I say
Don’t you try and push me
I’ll rise up and then you’ll see
I won’t waste this day
Let you check what I say
Don’t you try and push me
I’ll rise up and then you’ll see
Set this life in flames
You will know my name
Turn my wounds to strength
I’ll let go and I’ll be free
Every time that I try to break through
Feel it but then I can’t come to
Ask myself what do I live for?
Turn around and walk out that door
Won’t give in to the way it should be
Only I know how to live, can’t stop me
It’s not about chains and locks, no
It’s time to rise up and get out
[Chorus]
I won’t waste this day
Let you check what I say
Don’t you try and push me
I’ll rise up and then you’ll see
Set this life in flames
You will know my name
Turn my wounds to strength
I’ll let go and I’ll be free
[Verse 2]
Try and tell me what’s wrong and right
Like you have some kind of insight
Don’t you know it’s not up to you
And it’s not just me, it’s them too
Sneakin’ around in the dead of the night
Pretend like you’rе fighting the good fight
But you’re not called to bе the jury
All high and mighty, what’s your hurry
[Chorus]
I won’t waste this day
Let you check what I say
Don’t you try and push me

Turn my wounds to strength
I’ll let go and I’ll be free

Let you check what I say
Don’t you try and push me

I won’t waste this day
Let you check what I say
Don’t you try and push me
I’ll rise up and then you’ll see
Set this life in flames
You will know my name
Turn my wounds to strength
I’ll let go and I’ll be free
