[Verse 1]
Wisdom, like water, runs down to my feet
The more that you tell me, the less I can sleep
Time is a weapon that takes every man
Oh let me be young, I won't understand

Rise Up
Thomas Jack & Jasmine Thompson
[Verse 1]
Wisdom, like water, runs down to my feet
The more that you tell me, the less I can sleep
Time is a weapon that takes every man
Oh let me be young, I won't understand
[Chorus]
Rise up like smoke, let the air choke
Mountains crumbling down, oh let them go
Rise up the sea, oh let me be
And let the waves crash over me
(And let the waves crash over me)
(And let the waves crash over me)
[Verse 2]
Let go of reasons, surrender to fate
The apple of Eden is all yours to taste
Nobody's perfect and things will be rough
Love conquers all, so let there be love
[Chorus]
Rise up like smoke, let the air choke
Mountains crumbling down, oh let them go
Rise up the sea, oh, let me be
Rise up the sea, oh, let me be
And let the waves crash over me
Rise up the sea, oh, let me be
And let the waves crash over me
Rise up the sea, oh, let me be
And let the waves crash over me

“So Rise Up was written ages ago, and it was when I was still in school, and I was like thinking whether I should do this. And it's basically just a song about not caring about people giving you unnecessary hate. And the song for me is about when I was quite young…and I know exactly what I want to do.”
“I think it's a great message that I want people to be able to do the things that they love even if they get hate for it.” - Jasmine Thompson on her Snapchat
