Cypher X - I Rise Lyrics

Uh, yeah, yeah, we come from the bottom
But we rise, no matter how far we fall
Listen close

Born on a Monday, mama workin' two jobs
No silver spoon, just some noodles and a prayer to God
Tuesday came around, I was out on the block
Tryna dodge the trouble, but you know it don't stop
By Wednesday, the hustle was all I could see
Money on my mind, but the game ain't free
Thursday brought pain, seen my homie get caught
Life's a dice roll, don't forget what you bought

We stumble, we rise, every damn mon-day
But I'm chasin' my future, no matter what they say

I rise from the ground, don't care how hard I fall
Built from the struggle, man, I've been through it all
With every loss, there's a lesson that stays
I rise from the ground, for every hope I raise

Friday came heavy, pockets low, heart strong,
But I knew if I stayed down, I'd be stuck for too long
Saturday, I made moves, tryna flip what I got
Turnin' nothin' to somethin', that's how we take the shot
By Sunday, I was prayin', but not in the pew
Hopin' my hustle would see me through

We stumble, we climb, fallin' back ain't the play
But I keep movin' forward, no time for delay

I rise from the ground, don't care how hard I fall
Got dreams in my pocket, and I'm standin' tall
With every goodbye, there's a piece that remains
I rise from the ground, for every hope I raise

Yeah, Friday's pain? It don't last too long
It hits you quick, then it's gone like a song
By Saturday, man, I learned how to survive
Lettin' go of the past, just tryna stay alive

Sunday, I'm standin' with scars as proof
Every cut, every bruise, it's all my truth
The world might break me, but I won't stay down
I rise from the ground, in every part of this town

Yo, I rise for the lost, I rise for the pain
For everyone who thought they'd never breathe again
I rise for the streets, I rise for my name
Through the storm and the fire, I'm still in the game
I rise for my people, for the ones who believe
For the fighters, the dreamers who refuse to leave
From the bottom, we climb, from the dirt, we glow
Ain't no limit to this life, now it's time to show

I rise from the ground, don't care how hard I fall
We built from the struggle, man, we've seen it all
With every goodbye, there's a new fire blazed
We rise from the ground, for every hope we raise

We rise from the ground, for every hope we raise
We rise from the ground, for every hope we raise

We rise from the ground, for every hope we raise
We rise from the ground, for every hope we raise

We rise from the ground, for every hope we raise
We rise from the ground, for every hope we raise

We rise from the ground, for every hope we raise
We rise from the ground, for every hope we raise
