Rise Up

Used to have a problem in the morning getting up
By the afternoon my energy was giving up
Then the evening hit, I'd even think to hit her up
Through all of my grievin' you could see me rise up

Man the grief I've got and grief I've given
You'd think I'm lost, no chance of winning
But the brief onslaught from beginning to ending
Ended up bending the truth from you into pretending
Forget all of the lending
Forget all of the spending
Personality don't allow me to be pretentious
Won't speak on outer intentions
Don't know what you intended
Suppose I'm part offended
Ain't much irony in it
Lit a fire up in me
To acquire my twin flame
Plan my kids names
I know I'm not to blame
But I'm still here to do my thing

I feel like Marvin Gaye
Well, partially
Cause ain't no mountain or valley too high or low for me
I got different energy rising up these days
Don't need a Rihanna feature to pon de replay
Another text or a call to throw it all away
Simple conversations could've been what saved the day
Instead you stuck there-
Lookin for the mask and the cape
Your only thought to pass on the liqour, bud, or vape
'Fore you acknowledge any of your prior mistakes
We both ate our words, but only mine taste great
Like at Michael Jordan's steakhouse
Ordering $200 steaks for my birthday
I need this in the worst way
Yeah, even if it hurts baby
Go ahead and find your worth baby
Never worth going crazy over
Even when you was always staying over
My journey isnt stopping, this was just the layover

You see me rise up!
Yeah!
You see me rise up!
From the bottom up!
Started from the bottom!
Now you see me rise up!

Used to have a problem in the morning getting up
(that was back then)
By the afternoon my energy was giving up
(I was so tired)
Then the evening hit, I'd even think to hit her up
(would you pick up then?)
Through all of my grievin' you could see me rise up
(I'ma rise higher)
