Rise or Fall

I hear them both when it’s quiet at night

One talks truth, one twisting it right

One says live, other whispers just fall

I’m stuck in the middle, I’m hearing it all

Knees to the floor but my mind still drifts

Hands to the sky but my soul won’t lift

Trying to hold on but I’m losing grip

Every step forward, I backslide quick

Devil keeps telling me look what you did

God keeps saying that’s not who you is

Past like chains I can’t undo

Future feels blurred, don’t know what’s true

Light in the distance, I reach, it fades

Darkness close, yeah it knows my ways

Two paths pulling me

One wants my soul, one setting me free

[Verse1]Angel on my shoulder, devil in my ear

One talks love, other feeding fear

Saying rise, other says just fall

Caught between the two, who do I call

Walking a line that’s razor thin

Trying to fight the dark within

Good intentions tangled in sin

Every time I lose, I dive back in

Pray at night, but I sin by day

Ask for guidance, drift away

Feel the light, but the dark feels strong

Know what’s right but still choose wrong

[Hook]God on one side, Lucifer calling me

Pulling at my soul, trying to control me

I don’t know which path I should take

Every step I choose feels like a mistake

Heaven feels close, then fades away

Hell gets louder every time I pray

I’m stuck in the middle, I can’t break free

It’s a war in my mind over me

[Verse2]Lucifer whisper, you already lost

Look at your past, count up the cost

God don’t want you, you too far gone

Stay in the dark, that’s where you belong

Then I hear truth cut through lies

Grace don’t fade, mercy don’t die

You still got breath, still got a chance

Stand back up, this ain’t your end

I’m torn in half, feel it daily

One side hate, one trying to save me

One says run, other says fight

One loves darkness, one brings light

[Bridge]If I fall will I rise again

If I break can I make amends

Is redemption real or in my head

Am I living life or already dead

[Verse3]I ain’t perfect, yeah I made mistakes

Carried that weight till my soul would break

But I refuse to let dark decide

Who I become or where I reside

Devil loud but truth stands firm

Every scar is a lesson learned

I might fall, but I won’t stay down

I’ll fight that voice till I take ground

I choose the light even when it’s hard

Even when I’m torn apart

Even when temptation pulls me low

I still got a choice and I let it show

[Final Hook]God on one side, Lucifer calling me

Pulling at my soul, trying to control me

But I see the path I was meant to take

Even if I fall, I won’t let it break me

[Outro] I hear them both, but I’m choosing now

No more drifting, I’m standing my ground

Past still heavy, but I won’t fold

Truth in my chest, I’m taking control

Devil whispers, I don’t respond

I know who I am, I know where I’m from

Every breath I take is a chance to change

Every step forward breaks a chain

I might fall, but I rise again

Darkness close, but the light stays near

Even in struggle, I keep it clear

If I fight, I fight to be free

Not who I was, but who I can be
