I was who I always needed
Even when I couldn't see it
Even when the waves came crashing
Down
I was always somehow ashamed
Tryna always hide in my skin
Now, I feel the rain come pouring
Down
You always said that I should hide it
Don't know why I held my light in
Look I suffered now I'm shining out
Even when it wasn't easy
Even when you couldn't see me
I think I always knew deep down
Inside, that you were gonna watch me
Rise
Rise
Rise
Hey, rise up with the waves
You were always there for me, but
Didn't know what I was made of
The pressure only made this diamond
Stronger, stronger, stronger
You always said that I should hide it
Don't know why I held my light in
Look I suffered now I'm shining out
Even when it wasn't easy
Even when you couldn't see me
I think I always knew deep down
Inside, that you were gonna watch me
Rise
Rise
Rise
Hey, rise up with the waves
Rise
Rise
Rise
Hey, rise up with the waves
Whoa, whoa, whoa, ooh
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Hey, rise up with the waves
Whoa, whoa, whoa, ooh
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Today, rise up with the waves, rise up with the waves
Rise
Rise (ooh)
Rise
Hey, rise up with the waves
I was who I always needed
Even when I couldn't see it
