Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writings on the wall,
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall [Repeat x2]

I always said that I was gonna make it,
Now it's plain for everyone to see,
But this game I'm in don't take no prisoners,
Just casualties,
I know that everything is gonna change,
Even the friends I knew before me go,
But this dream is the life I've been searching for,
Started believing that I was the greatest,
My life was never gonna be the same,
Cause with the money came a different status,
That's when things change,
Now I'm too concerned with all the things I own,
Blinded by all the pretty girls I see,
I'm beginning to lose my integrity

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writings on the wall,
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall

I never used to be a troublemaker,
Now I don't even want to please the fans,
No autographs,
No interviews,
No pictures,
And less demands,
Given advice that was clearly wrong,
The type that seems to make me feel so right,
But some things you may find can take over your life,
Burnt all my bridges now I've run out of places,
And there's nowhere left for me to turn,
Been caught in compromising situations,
I should have learnt,
From all those times I didn't walk away,
When I knew that it was best to go,
Is it too late to show you the shape of my heart,

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writings on the wall,
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall

Now I know,
I made mistakes,
Think I don't care,
But you don't realize what this means to me,
So let me have,
Just one more chance,
I'm not the man I used to be,
Used to be

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writings on the wall,
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall [Repeat x4]

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writings on the wall,

The rise and fall

[Corneille]
On se laisse croire qu'on est intouchable
Et que nos vies changent à jamais
D'un coup le monde devient plus aimable
Fait croire qui l'est
Je me plains dans l'artifice du monde
J'suis aveuglé par les risques qu'on y trouvent
Je commence vraiment perde de vue qui je suis

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writings on the wall,
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall

[Corneille]
J'suis à la course et je veux reprendre
J'ai fais le grand tour mais sans issue
J'ai vu le danger sans vraiment apprendre
Je n'ai pas su
Et toute les fois ou j'aurais pu choisir
D'ouvrir mes yeux et me libérer
J'suis retombé plus bas il est beaucoup trop tard

Burnt all my bridges now I've run out of places,
And there's nowhere left for me to turn,
Been caught in comprimising situations,

Used to beeeeeeeeeee

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writings on the wall, (the writings on the wall)
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over, (feel the fight is over)
And it seems as though the writings on the wall, (the writings on the wall)
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall

Those who speaks from nothing (No, No)
But it's never over, until the writings on the wall
It's never over (Oh yeah)
It's what they call (It's what they call)
The Rise and Fall
