about

do you ever doubt your choices in life? We all come to those places where a decision must be made, but and answer is not clear. What do we do there? How do we find our true value? This song seeks those answers and more.

lyrics

Rise Above
(formerly As Above So Below)

stepping out has never felt so freeing
the ground was never known to be so fleeting
as I rise above, I look out down below
where I have been was never left so empty
what I've seen was never known to haunt me
as I rise above, I look out down below

at who I used to be
and who I am now
does my past determine my future?
is a change of fate allowed?
I wanna be free
wanna be more than I am now
does my class determine my future?
is a change of fate allowed?

being right has never felt so doubtful
a small amount never such a handful
as I rise above, I look out down below
where I am is never where I am going
what I have heard never so disappointing
as I rise above, I look out down below

at who I used to be
and who I am now
does my past determine my future?
is a change of fate allowed?
I wanna be free
wanna be more than I am now
does my class determine my future?
is a change of fate allowed?

(solo break down)

I wanna be free
wanna be more than I am now
does my class determine my future?
is a change of fate allowed?
Is it destiny?
in these veins that wire me?
can i remember the man in the mirror
that I can stand to be?
