Rise Up
Rise Beyond: A Triumph Over Darkness by Yngwie Malmsteen
Lyrics
You know I have seen the dark side
You acknowledge the existence of difficult times or challenges.
But evil is not my friend
You distance yourself from evil, indicating it's not a companion.
And you know I'll die trying
Expressing determination to persevere, even in the face of challenges.
Keep on trying to the end
Commitment to continue trying until the very end.
You know I'm superstitious
Admitting to superstitions but asserting that negative forces won't prevail.
But the devil never pays
Evil doesn't bring rewards; your triumph is satisfying.
My victory is delicious
Your victories are enjoyable and sweet.
When you fall, fall from grace
When others fall from a position of favor, there's satisfaction.
My holy sacrifice
Describing a significant, possibly personal, sacrifice for a higher purpose.
It's time for me to rise
Indicating a moment to rise, possibly from adversity or challenges.
The demons chained me down
Acknowledging being restrained by negative forces (demons).
It's time to rise
Reiterating the need to rise from challenges or constraints.
Rise up

-I have had my share of fighting
Highlighting a history of fighting but expressing readiness for more.
But I still could fight some more
Despite past struggles, the will to continue the fight remains.
Now I can see the horizon
Improved clarity or perspective on life's challenges.
Much better than before
Having given considerable effort over the years.
What I've been giving all these years
Commitment to enduring effort, symbolized by blood, sweat, and tears.
My blood, my sweat, my tears
-I'll carry on forever
-My holy sacrifice
