When shadows rise to meet us Our flame will burn through the night An ancient spark ignites And fills the void with light. We’ll rise above, defying gravity Through every trial defying gravity And they won’t bring us down. Our light will continue to shine this flame is no trick or delusion Never accepted limits, Cause someone says they're so Thousands of years so far But we’ve still got a ways to go. No time to be afraid of Those who’d try to see us gone They didn’t know the strength that we’ve had all along. We’ll rise above, defying gravity Through every trial defying gravity And they won’t bring us down. So if your faith is shaken Pray to the Eastern sky As someone told me lately Od Avinu, Am Yisrael Chai We’re never flying solo We’re never left alone To those who’d ground us Here’s a message of our own We'll rise above, defying gravity We’ll shine our light, defying gravity And we will make our presence known. In every land that we call home We’ll say it loud and make it known, You’re never gonna bring us down.
