This life's a struggle, you're dying trying
This life is what you make it
There is joy in the strangest of places
In the faces of strangers
I say, we're in this together
Yeah, we're in this together
And you can move on up and come join us
Move on up and walk with us
Keep on moving, don't lose your step
I have been there and I know how hard it is
But I think you will rise
You should know that you can rise
From a valley so low, to a mountain so high
It's all just perspective, it's in your mind
You've got to live like a man on the streets once in awhile
Two dollars to your name and you can't spend it all
You're bumming cigarettes and matches
But you just can't smoke til the end 'cause the end will come
You get back a little fight, you could move on up
Just walk, yeah, walk with us
Keep on moving, don't lose your step
I have been there and I know how hard it is
But I think you will rise
You should know that you can rise
