Someday I May Rise Above It All

Trouble followed me on down
To the lonely side of town
And sat with me and watched my teardrops fall
Life's a monkey on my back
But I take comfort from the fact
That someday, I may rise above it all

Devil voices in my head
They were laughing when they said
The boy who dared to run can't even crawl
Though my angel wings are broken
There's no reason to stop hoping
That someday, I may rise above it all

And the next time that we meet
If you pass me on the street
You'll swear my feet don't even touch the ground
Though right now that's not the case
And I've fallen far from grace
I pray someday I may rise above it all

And the next time that we meet
If you pass me on the street
You'll swear my feet don't even touch the ground
Though right now that's not the case
And I've fallen far from grace
I pray someday I may rise above it all
I pray someday I may rise above it all
