Rise Again Drill
(uh-huh) They counted out the man on the floor (look) Watch how
I step right back through the door
Knocked down flat, thought the chapter was shut Blood on the gravel,
just dirt in the cut They wrote up the eulogy,
said I was done I was just counting the seconds to run
Never laid down when the heavy rain hit Calloused my knuckles,
rebuilt every bit Ten toes planted in the asphalt cold Turned every
fracture to solid gold
(never fold)
Said I took the blow,
said I took the fall Now I'm standing taller than the perimeter
wall Listen to the boots scraping off the rust
Watch me rise out the dust
Done? Nah, I'm still getting up Empty the tank,
go and refill the cup
Hit the concrete, bounce off the floor Back in the trenches,
kicking the door Done?
Nah, I'm still getting up (still up) Drink from the fire and
test out my luck Bruised in the chest but I'm leading the
pack Every time down,
it's a harder attack (pow)
Saw them smirking when I hit the dirt Took that energy,
fed on the hurt Heavy boots laced for a winter campaign Nerves
turned numb to the needle of pain Clock ticking down,
they were waving goodbye I caught my breath with a fire in
my eye Scraped up the palms and I loaded the stride Nothing
to borrow and nothing to hide
(look at me now)
They called it the finish
They called it the grave
(nah) Every drop lost is a lesson I save
On my feet now.
On my feet now!
Done? Nah, I'm still getting up Empty the tank,
go and refill the cup
Hit the concrete, bounce off the floor Back in the trenches,
kicking the door Done?
Nah, I'm still getting up (still up,
yeah) Drink from the fire and test out my luck Bruised in
the chest but I'm leading the pack Every time down,
it's a harder attack
(let's go)
Still getting up.
Every single time.
Try knock me down again.
