How do we rise - Gstream
[Verse 1]
The ball left my hands like a prayer to the void
Brick on iron, the crowd noise destroyed
Every version of me that believed I could rise
Now I'm dust on the hardwood, volcano in my eyes
You see ash when you miss at the moment that counts
Ancient cities collapsing, I'm burning this down
[Pre-Chorus]
But from the ruins we built every temple before
From the wreckage we're charging right back to the war
[Chorus]
How do we turn all this fire into flight?
How do we make every failure ignite?
When the buzzer's a heartbeat, the arc of the ball
Is the difference between standing tall or the fall
Oh, how do we rise?
How do we rise?
[Verse 2]
Crossover, shake the defender like breaking from time
Sneakers screaming on the floor like they're speaking in rhyme
I'm a monument crumbling, then building again
Every miss is a ghost but it teaches my hands
The weight of the trophy's the weight of what's lost
Every shot that we buried's the price that it cost
[Pre-Chorus]
But from the ashes we climb every mountain we've known
From the wreckage we're taking back every throne
[Chorus]
How do we turn all this fire into flight?
How do we make every failure ignite?
When the buzzer's a heartbeat, the arc of the ball
Is the difference between standing tall or the fall
Oh, how do we rise?
How do we rise?
[Bridge]
Three seconds, three feet, three fingers release
The past and the future collapsing to peace
We are the ones who remember the sting
We are the ones who come back for everything
[Final Chorus]
We turned all this fire into flight
We made every failure ignite
When the buzzer's a heartbeat, the arc of the ball
Was the difference between standing tall or the fall
Now we rise
Now we rise
Yeah, we rise
[Outro]
Hold it high, hold it high
The trophy's made of every time we tried
