Ready to Rise

READY TO RISE - Dana Fuchs

I was standing alone with the world at my side
I was reaching for help but my hands were tied

I was trying to run- couldn’t feel my own feet
my eyes were wide open but I was asleep

Now I’ve gone and said my goodbyes
I’ve laughed and I loved - I’ve ached and I’ve cried
Can’t lie here no more with the sun in my eyes
I’m tired of losin’ and ready to rise
I won’t cry anymore - bout bein' buried alive
I’m tired of losin’ and ready to rise

life’s moving so fast - I can barely breathe
keep seeing the past - staring back at me
Don’t wanna let go - but I can’t hold on
pain I didn’t know - I’d been running from

Now I’m gone and said my goodbyes
I’ve laughed and I loved - I’ve ached and I’ve cried

But I won’t cry anymore with the sun in my eyes
I’m tired of losin’ & I’m ready to rise
Iwon’t lie here no more -bein’ buried alive
I’m tired of losin’ and ready to rise

Oh I won’t cry anymore - i been buried alive
I’m tired of losin’ ready to rise
and I won’t cry here no more with the sun in my eyes
I’m tired of losing - I’m ready to rise
Tired of losing - ready to rise
