[Verse 1] Mud on my boots and fire in my chest The crowd's roar shakes the ground beneath We lock arms, brothers side by side Steel meets bone, no retreat The scoreboard's just a number game But out here we're writing history Every tackle's a testament To the blood we bleed for victory [Pre-Chorus ] When the weight gets heavy And my lungs scream for air I hear a voice inside me Saying "Son, I'm always there" [Chorus ] Champions rise when the world says fall We carry the light through the darkest brawl With grace in our hearts and thunder in our veins We're more than muscle, more than pain Champions rise, we answer the call Faith and fury, we're giving it all [Verse 2] Halftime whispers in the locker room Sweat and prayers on bended knee The coach says "Dig a little deeper" But God says "Let me set you free" We run back out to that battlefield Scars like medals on our skin It ain't about the trophy case It's the warrior you become within [Pre-Chorus ] When doubt creeps in the shadows And fear tries to take hold There's a fire that won't surrender Burning brighter than gold [Chorus ] Champions rise when the world says fall We carry the light through the darkest brawl With grace in our hearts and thunder in our veins We're more than muscle, more than pain Champions rise, we answer the call Faith and fury, we're giving it all [Bridge ] Raise your fist to the sky tonight Every stumble made us strong We were broken, now we're forged in fight This is where we all belong From the ashes, from the doubt From the nights we thought we'd drown We stand tall, we stand proud Hear that redemption sound [Chorus ] Champions rise when the world says fall We carry the light through the darkest brawl With grace in our hearts and thunder in our veins We're more than muscle, more than pain Champions rise, we answer the call Faith and fury, we're giving it all [Outro ] So when the final whistle blows And the stadium lights fade low Remember what you're made of, brother It's the only thing they'll never know Champions rise... we rise Champions rise... we rise
