Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You’re scrolling through another storm

Blue and red on every screen

Someone’s house under the waterline

And we still arguing teams

Kids in classrooms practicing drills

Like it’s some kind of game

Leaders talking in their suits again

But nothing really changes

[Pre-Chorus]

I’m tired of tiny islands

Building thrones on sinking ground

What if every time we climbed

We turned around

[Chorus]

I rise when I lift you first

That’s the only way this works

If your knees are on the dirt

Then my crown is just a curse

So I’ll put my hands under your hands

Shoulder your world till we both stand

I don’t want to fly above this earth

I rise when I lift you first (yeah)

[Verse 2]

Headlines full of breaking hearts

Borders burning

Tempers high

People marching with their paper signs

Names of those who said goodbye

Someone shares a stranger’s bill

Crowds erase it in a day

Turns out when we carry one small weight

The mountains start to break

[Pre-Chorus]

I’m done with empty logos

Pretty posts and practiced smiles

Love is measured in the miles

We walk for someone else tonight

[Chorus]

I rise when I lift you first

That’s the only way this works

If your knees are on the dirt

Then my crown is just a curse

So I’ll put my hands under your hands

Shoulder your world till we both stand

I don’t want to fly above this earth

I rise when I lift you first

[Bridge]

When the sirens sound in cities we don’t live in (oh)

When the sky turns gray for faces we don’t know

We can turn away

Pretend it isn’t ours

Or open up our doors

Share the roof

Share the power

Share the hour

[Chorus]

I rise when I lift you first

That’s the only way this works

If your knees are on the dirt

Then my crown is just a curse

So I’ll put my hands under your hands

Shoulder your world till we both stand

If the whole wide world is hurt

Then my win just makes it worse

I don’t want a lonely place of worth

I rise when I lift you first (I rise)

I rise when I lift you first
