paroles de chanson Rise Above - Goal Mind Luck

Survival can carry a heavy burden if you don't have the resilience to rise above
As a man I couldn't always provide the money
But I always was able to Provide the love
When helping someone deal with pain
You may not have the right words to say so you reply with hugs

You know they say it's lonely at the top but um
I ain't been that high to judge
Truth be told elevation seems like a myth when you at rock-bottom
The only people that can get you high
Is the one's who supply the drugs

They say only the string survive
Well that's only a complement to the ones who never knew what thriving was
Oh your aint know
I'm gonna let the chorus speak for itself

Rise above, rise above, rise above, rise above
I know the sun won't shine forever
I gotta grind like it's now or never

If its up to me I rather die for a cause
I will ride for my dogs
Every day that I'm living I always try to evolve

Every second life Is more than a lesson
You living then it's a blessing

In the concrete jungle I'll be the elephant that's in the room
I had to clean up what I messed up every since I learned to lift a broom
I wasn't raised with a Silverspoon
And when I think about the pain I still feel the wounds yea
A lack of sleep power naps to relax my feet
I'm chasing money until my body start to acting weak
Raised in a church but I never followed what the Pastor preached

I got some homies in prison could've been atheletes.
Football in the streets we was playing tackle no pads or cleats
Spaghetti for dinner leftover it had to last a week

Father had a stroke made me the man of the house
I had to, go out and get it no more laying on the couch
I ask Jesus to take the wheel cause I ain't plan for this route
I get tired but I keep on going til my stamina out
My actions speaks loud as the words that I'm saying from my mouth
This what they wanted when my ancestors was praying for the south I hope they're proud

Rise above, rise above, rise above, rise above
I know the sun won't shine forever
I gotta grind like it's now or never

If its up to me I rather die for a cause
I will ride for my dogs
Every day that I'm living I always try to evolve

Every second life Is more than a lesson
You living then it's a blessing

Now picture yourself in a state of mind of an adolescent that comes from nothing
You take penitentiary chances when your stomach touching
Putting money over nothing and hustling
Overall but overall I only saw my Sumter County soldiers fall
Victim of the streets and got more strikes now than a bowling ball
But I ain't trying to see the pin
The opposite of bowling ball
Reminiscing back when I was struggling just to pay the rent
Corn flakes and powder milk
Any time you out of milk
It's a cold world I hope that you ain't come without a quilt
Doing dirt plus raising kids equals a lot of guilt
They say the apple don't fall far from the tree
I had to change my life to make both my kids better than me
And if I knew then what I knew now
Then I probably would have found me a new route
I got booted out at an early age
I packed up and I found me a new couch
Had plenty cash been dead broke
Homeless with roaches I use to think that life was a game
Like I never needed my coaches I'm focused.

I'm focuses man
In my best Hov voice
It's a hard knock life cause we was left with no choice

We live in a society where she ain't searching for the gentleman with a rose
She wants a gangster in a Rolls-Royce
They say is a drought when it comes to real men
But ironically making it rain is the only thing that make these ho's moist
Ha let that sink in for a minute.
It's time to rise up queen.
It's more life I ain't trying to settle for less
You should think same.

Rise above, rise above, rise above, rise above
I know the sun won't shine forever
I gotta grind like it's now or never

If its up to me I rather die for a cause
I will ride for my dogs
Every day that I'm living I always try to evolve
Every second life Is more than a lesson
You living then it's a blessing
