Rising

(album: High School Musical: The Musical: The Series (Season 3) - 2022)

Who am I when who I am is changing?
And who am I when I'm not in my head?
I'm following the signs, where will they take me?
Will my future self and I be friends?

I'm searching for stars, the horizon is black
But I know what I know, and there's no going back

I've been living under one small piece of sky
Suddenly, the whole world is open wide
It's time I'm rising, rising
There's a part of me reaching for the light
So strong, impossible to hide this fire that's rising, rising

And what am I when what I am is wild
And louder than I ever dared believe?
I'm so done with hiding in the shadows
And I'm so over being scared of me

The stars are all new (The stars are all new)
I'm charting a path (I'm charting a path)
'Cause I know what I know (I know what I know)
And there's no going back

I've been living under one small piece of sky
Suddenly, the whole world is open wide
It's time I'm rising, rising
There's a part of me reaching for the light
So strong, impossible to hide this fire that's rising, rising

To the challenge, to the surface (Rising, rising)
To the moment, to the calling (Rising, rising)
I've been searching, I've been learning (Rising, rising)
And finding that this too could change with time
And that's alright

I've been living under one small piece of sky
Not scared to leave it all behind
It's time I'm rising
I've been living under one small piece of sky
Suddenly, the whole world is open wide
It's time I'm rising, rising
There's a part of me reaching for the light
So strong, impossible to hide this fire that's rising, rising

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Rising, rising
