[Verse]
Em
It's not the wakin', it's the risin'
D
It is the groundin' of a foot uncompromisin'
C
It's not forgoin' of the lie
G B
It's not the openin' of eyes
Am Em
It's not the wakin', it's the risin'

Em
It's not the shade we should be past it
D
It's the light and it's the obstacle that casts it
C
It's the heat that drives the light
G B
It's the fire it ignites
Am Em
It's not the wakin', it's the risin'
[Verse]
Em
It's not the song, it is the singin'
D
It's the heaven of the human spirit ringin'

It is the bringin' of the line

Am Em
It's not the wakin', it's the risin'
