Young Rising Sons
Red & Gold
[Verse 1]
My soul is burning
I've got a flame growing high
You couldn't put out this fire
Even with your cold stare of eyes
My heart is aching
Because I'm hungry for more
I dress my eyes up in courage
Even if I'm knocked to the floor

[Pre-Chorus]
And I had to fall
Before I learned to stand up
Repaint these walls
A brighter shade of red and gold
What's lost is lost
But now I'm gonna stand up

[Chorus]
If you can crawl (Hey!)
Then you can stand up
Been through it all
I've been up and down and up again
If you can crawl (Hey!)
Then keep your head up
Just keep painting those walls
A brighter shade of red and gold
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Brighter shade of red and gold
[Verse 2]
I've been let down
But I've got some hope in disguise
I'll make it through all these cold days
Even if I gotta stay inside
You know the sun's finally rising
I see the frost turn to gold
I've got this young love inside me
Must be what's burning my soul

[Pre-Chorus]
And I had to fall
Before I learned to stand up
Repaint these walls
A brighter shade of red and gold
What's lost is lost
But now I'm gonna stand up

[Chorus]
If you can crawl (Hey!)
Then you can stand up
Been through it all
I've been up and down and up again
If you can crawl (Hey!)
Then keep your head up
Just keep painting those walls
A brighter shade of red and gold
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Brighter shade of red and gold
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Brighter shade of red and gold
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Brighter shade of red and gold

[Bridge]
I've been right, and I've been wrong
The shade's down; the blinds are drawn
I've been around this block before
I found the key, unlocked the door
My head's high; I'm feeling strong
You just need to carry on
Just keep painting those walls
A brighter shade of red and gold

[Chorus]
If you can crawl (Hey!)
Then you can stand up
Been through it all
I've been up and down and up again
If you can crawl (Hey!)
Then keep your head up
Just keep painting those walls
A brighter shade of red and gold
(Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
If you can crawl (Hey!)
Then you can stand up
Been through it all
I've been up and down and up again
(Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
If you can crawl (Hey!)
Then keep your head up
Just keep painting those walls
A brighter shade of red and gold
