Rise ft. Nyota Parker Lyrics

I've been writing with my pen, been writing off some friends

Been fighting what's within, stop crying about my sin

My timing is worth it, not trying to be perfect

No lying, I ain't just connect, I've kind of been distant

They tell me where you went, for my dreams I'm hustling

Ain't trying to lose my head while I'm running out of breath

There's power in my steps, there's honor in my flesh

I rose from the concrete, I'm the flower that was left

Okay, I'm hungry, ain't been fed

Been loving, but I bled

This ego get me hurt, these words are left unsaid

Try to water what was dead, it may not resurrect

Trying to do right while they play me to the left, yeah

Rise, rise above it

Open your eyes to the lies of the public

Float in the skies, you got wings so it's nothing

We will rise, Dr. Mayan, keep on loving, keep on

Yeah, you know you gotta levitate

I know that you been dealing with hella hate

They go low, you go high, you just elevate

Give it some time, don't over medicate

Don't you hesitate

Yeah, yeah

You just elevate

Yeah, yeah

Don't you hesitate

Yeah, yeah

You just elevate

Yeah, yeah

I just wanna get away

In and out of different states

Talking mental aid, though you thought I was fine

Just the other day, something lay

I just feel the weight of my shoulders

I dust them off like they were pebbles

I look down, they're like boulders, cause I pray

Never lost track of my footprints

I was told to never look back, but would I still crash if I knew it

I thought I had to retract, but why'd you strike back

Cause I'm fluid, yeah

So just screw it

Just know I outgrew it, yeah

Rise, rise above it

Open your eyes to the lies of the public

Float in the skies, you got wings, so it's nothing

We will rise, lock the mind, keep on loving, keep on

Yeah, you know you gotta levitate

I know that you been dealing with hella hate

They go low, you go high, you just elevate

Give it some time, don't over medicate

Don't you hesitate

Yeah, yeah

You just elevate

Yeah, yeah

Don't you hesitate

Yeah, yeah

You just elevate

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah
