1) i´ve been taught, in the name of life What a thrill, like a steely knife it hit my face ´see it left without a trace
Life´s been short, in the name of love ´paid my bills, just to rise above secret hills
(2) there´s been awful pain all through this race I made it to a peaceful place, i know – I will make it again ´see my consciousness is bright and clear ´see me standing tall and have no fear at all
(chorus) take away my pride, i will rise again Though it seems so hard, i know – You will see me again Seasons come and go, i will rise again Deep inside i know I´ll be back again
