I just want to say that the 'Rise Above' philosophy is just my own thoughts, and I wrote this mainly to help myself grow, as a person.
If it helps someone else out there, then I am very happy indeed!
We can all 'Rise Above', but it's easier when we know we're not alone...




Never mind what’s going on
In your life, if it is wrong
Deep inside the truth comes through
You will feel it
Whether thoughts or whether deeds
Be it yours or other’s needs
You will know
When things feel out of place to you...

You can fight, or you can cry
You can question how and why
But you know the answer lies
Within your heart
Though it’s hard to face what’s real
And sometimes it seems to feel
Like the world you know
Is breaking all apart...

Then Rise Above
Spread your wings
It’s time to fly
Within the power waits to be set free
Just Rise Above
Reach out to touch the sky
You’ll find your fears grow smaller
When your soul can rise above...


Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life
