Rise Up

Yo, Mama, hold up, my heart's feelin' heavy,

Two steps in, now my world's feelin' edgy.

Three, trust broke, burned right through,

Four, I ain't breakin' no more, that's true.

Mind hit the floor, I'm pickin' it up slow,

But you, nah, you ain't the one I used to know.

Talkin' all that, spreadin' lies to the youth,

Tryin' to play a part, but I'm seein' through the proof.

It's a toss-up, you went left or right,

But I'm standin' tall, even in the fight.

I take hits, yeah, I feel it bad,

But I rise again, ain't stayin' sad.
