Rise To The Top

Sweat on your brow

And you keep pressing on

You keep your head held high

Smile and you sing

But there's only one thing

You feel like you're passed by

You can't take it hard

Cos' they won't understand

That when the chips are down

You'll have the upper hand

I won't be put down

You can't push me away

I'm gonna stand on my own

And I'm going to say

Yeah I'm gonna rise to the top

Baby I'm gonna set the bar

You can pay no regard, you can look away

But I'm gonna go so far

Room with a crowd

But you still stand alone

Is there something wrong with me?

A club VIP

But you don't have a key

It's clear you don't fit in

Courtesy calls

And rears up it's head

A thicket of lies

In the light that you shed

I won't be put down

You can't push me away

I'm gonna stand on my own

And I'm going to say

Oh, I'm gonna rise to the top

Yeah I'm gonna set the bar

You can sing your praises

You can leave me out

But I'm gonna go so far

You can look right through me

You can walk right past

I've got never a care

I was built to last
