Vanessa Amorosi Rise Up lyrics

Everybody's come a long, long way
Such a long way to be here today
We're going hard, giving it all
We've been knocking on wood
With our backs to the wall

We've been working every day and night
Waiting for the chance for the day to arrive
And now we've all got something to prove
Win or lose, there's only one thing to do

We've got to rise up and fly like eagles
Rise up through the sky
We've got to rise up on the higher mountains
Rise up, rise up

Rise, rise up
(Hey yeah, yeah, yeah)

Inside the sweat, inside the heat
In each and every heart there's a pounding beat
To do it wrong, to do it right
Each of us has put up one hell of a fight

And as we face the final test
All that we can do is to do our best
And as we'll make as time stands still
To get to the top, you've got to give all you've got

We've got to rise up and fly like eagles
Rise up through the sky
We've got to rise up on the higher mountains
Rise up, rise up

Rise up and fly like eagles

Rise up through the sky
We've got to rise up on the higher mountains
Rise up, rise up

Shine your light and let them see
Everything you want to be
Shine you light and let them know
You will never let it go

Oh, oh
(We've been working every day and night)
(Waiting for the chance for the day to arrive)
Rise up
(And now we've all got something to prove)
Win or lose, there's only one thing to do

We've got to rise up and fly like eagles
Rise up through the sky
We've got to rise up on the higher mountains
Rise up, rise up

Rise up and fly like eagles
Rise up through the sky
We've got to rise up on the higher mountains
Rise up, rise up

Rise up and fly like eagles
Rise up through the sky
We've got to rise up on the higher mountains
Rise up, rise up

We've got to rise up
