I feel fatigue when I wake up from my sleep
Midnight hour my eyes open for a peak
In and out of dreams my mind phases
Even through the days steady going through mild dazes
My mind races
Yes I thought about if I failed
And if I die unfulfilled when my eyes fail
What if I don't change lives or make cheddar rapping?
Good thing between you and I that would never happen
Ignore naysayers just yapping
Five years we be moving like it just happened
They gon' see us like the world came on a platter
I'ma tell em that we prayed and we took action
I let you check baggage
Three years I let you check back in
And look how daddy bring the check back in
I ain't boasting I'm just chest smacking
Move right or get your chest backed in
I'll show you God got the best tactics for real
And still I rise
Against all odds homie still I rise
Look me in my eyes see and still I rise
And still I rise
Against all odds
Look, I got more in store, shop in person
Striking demons with my words just to opt the curses
If I stop the verses then they stop hurting
I ain't talking verses like ill raps
I'm talking verses like come up out that coffin verses
Sick rhymes like I come up out that coughing verses
But these words life we ain't talking hearses
And if they talking hearses pull out verses
Watch how God reverse it
He take the dark and get the heart reverted that's for certain
Tell me just what team you on
Don't be just another story boy what theme you on
I'm tryna follow like a read along
I'm tryna track you like I'm mixing songs
But if you acting then I back you like a sing-along
And if you passing then to each his own
I give my heart I don't just read you poems
This blood drive like I'm bleeding for him
I vent to you like I'm breathing for him
And if they drowning then I'm reaching for them
And still I'll rise
Against all odds homie still I rise
Look me in my eyes and see still I rise
Against all odds homie still I rise
And still I'll rise I said still I rise
Against all odds I rise
Because of Jesus Christ homie still I rise
I got the Holy Ghost so that's why I rise Look me in my eyes
