The Rise

They like "where you've been?" Man, I've been chillin'
H-H-Had to grow my wings, and I flew up to the sky
Girl, I cannot be ya' hero, I'm more like the villain
Loadin' up the choppa' man, I could get ya fried
Lord, forgive me for my sins, knowin' I've been sinnin'
I could do some things that can end a nigga life
But I stuck right to the music, it was my decision
Now I pave the way for these niggas to get high

Check the scoreboard nigga, and you'll know that I be winnin'
"This'll be the end", more like "the beginning'"
'M-'M-'Member niggas hated me, man fuck you and yo' fake pretendin'
Did a lot of shit I'm undefeated, I learned from my lessons
I just count up every bill, while I count my blessings
Lotta niggas kept a strap, I ain't have a Wesson
I just had my gang by my side, With a mic by my side
Man y'all just don't understand, I just do this for the rise
Man, that old me is dead, Bitch I caught 'em by surprise
Lotta' money in my hand, Now she wanna come and ride
Man I'm feeling like a king, Bitch I said "It's do or die"
But I still feel alone, Something that I feel inside

They like "where you've been?" Man, I've been chillin

Girl I cannot be ya' hero, I'm more like the villain

Lord forgive me for my sins, knowing I've been sinnin'

But I stuck right to the music, it was my decision

Loadin' up the choppa' man, I could get ya fried (Mm)

I could do some things that can end a nigga life (Mm)

Now I pave the way for these niggas to get high (Mm)
