When you're counting your scars
See your dirty face
You always dry your tears at night
There's no one here you have to fear
But the fear still grows inside
Grows inside

Just keep up, soldier
It won't be easy
To stand upright while you suffer all this pain
To stand upright and to face it all again

And when they say you're nothing
Try to resist them
You are not as faint as you think
Givin' up is no solution
Don't you think it's time to move on?

You've gotta stand up
When you're pushed down
Don't stay there sitting numb
Down on the ground
And when you start to fall
Forget your fear cause
You will have to rise above it
Then you're self-made

And when you've made it
Don't hide there speechless
Do not pretend you don't see what's happening
Because you know the way it feels

So when you see them crushing
Try to resist them
Try to recall your position
Now you have the force to change it
Don't you think it's time to tell him?

You've gotta stand up
When you're pushed down
Don't stay there sitting numb
Down on the ground
And when you start to fall
Forget your fear cause
You will have to rise above it (rise above it!)

(Rise above it!)

You've gotta stand up
When you're pushed down
Don't stay there sitting numb
Down on the ground
And when you start to fall
Forget your fear cause
You will have to rise above it

You've gotta stand up
When you're pushed down
Don't stay there sitting numb
Down on the ground
And when you start to fall
Forget your fear cause
You will have to rise above it (rise above it!)

You've gotta stand up
When you're pushed down
Don't stay there sitting numb
Down on the ground
And when you start to fall
Forget your fear cause
You will have to rise above it
Then you're self-made
