Rising Star

(album: A Million And One - 2018)

Thought I was down for the count
Made some mistakes I won't talk about
But I'mma skate or die
I can fly, I'mma rough it out
All right, starchild
All right, starchild

Thought I was down for the count
Diamonds fell out of my crown
Pressure was building on me
Trouble I made up
Begin of light you see in the night
That's me, I'm rising up from nowhere

You think it you, you make it
You dreaming awake yet?
Think it, you make it
'Til fail
Think it, you make it
You dreaming awake yet?
Think it, you make it
Now you gon' prevail

And in the fading light
I hear a voice so clear
And in the closing hour
I feel a change coming

Thought I was down for the count
Silence, hide or come out
All right, starchild
Oh, begin of light you see in the night
That's me, I'm rising up from despair

(All right now, here we go)

You think it you, you make it
You dreaming awake yet?
Think it, you make it
'Til fail
Think it, you make it
You dreaming awake yet?
Think it, you make it
Now you gon' prevail

And in the fading light
I hear a voice so clear
And in the closing hour
I feel a change coming

And in the fading light
I hear a voice so clear
And in the closing hour
I feel a change coming

Rising star
Rise!
