[Verse One]
One eye open
No rock left unturned
Like a drop in the ocean
I rise
[Pre-Chorus]
And they say it might be witchcraft
When they saw her strength
Invisible armour to keep his words away
[Chorus]
Oh oh, arms rise up she wakes
Oh oh, moves through the water and changes
Oh oh, arms rise up she stands

Oh oh, arms rise up she wakes
Oh oh, moves through the water and changes
Oh oh, arms rise up she stands
Oh oh, holding the fire in her hands
Oh oh, arms rise up she wakes
Oh oh, moves through the water and changes
Oh oh, arms rise up she stands
Oh oh, holding the fire in her hands

[Verse Three]
As she dives into the water
Whispers of the flame
And they weight for her return
Oh but will she stay?

Rise up
She starts to rise up
She's going to rise up
She starts to rise up
Rise up
She starts to rise up
She's going to rise up
She starts to rise up
Rise up
She starts to rise up
