Still I Rise

You see this pain in my eyes

Why you wanna despise, ****?

Yeah this ain't a game

I'm alive

So l'm tryna enterprise, ****

Why you tryna jeopardise

How a player provide, huh?

Still I rise like the five percent limo tint, ****

Still I rise

I live a different kind of life

I'm in the city for the morning

And camping in the night

Even when it's left

I still be trying get it right

Even though nobody's perfect

I'll be perfectly aligned

And you know my heart pure

So be sure if I decline

I don't mean no hard feelings

I just follow the design

Given to me by the Most High

Understand both sides

There ain't no light

Without dark, and that's real

There ain't no fire without a spark, and that's real

In order to preserve life, sometimes you gotta kill

In order to preserve life, sometimes you gotta heal

Is that how you feel?

That's how you personally feel?

**** got it fucked up

They messing up the game

Think they on top, they just a person in the chain

Truth to a lie is like detergent to a stain

Until it goes away

And only certainty remains

You see this pain in my eyes

Why you wanna despise, ****?

Yeah, this ain't a game

I'm alive so I'm tryna enterprise, ****

Why you tryna jeopardise how a player provide, huh?

Still I rise like the five percent limo tint, ****

Ain't nobody coming to save you

Keep it pushing

What kind of life is waiting on a man to say you can?

Gotta keep shaking

Baking, get it cooking

Too hot in the kitchen, gotta put on some mittens

And there's way too many chefs at the pot for me to listen

So I'm handling business

Whipping up something vicious

I believe in God

Can't feed the superstition

'Cause it starts with cold feet

And then your fire gets extinguished

So l give them Rei Of Light

Hope that they aight

Still I rise

No time to be afraid of heights

Still I lied but it's fine

I had to pay the price

That's life, last Guinness and then we slide

Liquor got me fucked up

All up in my brain

Ever since the passa, I ain't never been the same

Ever since I sold my line

I never been the same

But that's just the game

Can't grow unless you change

You see this pain in my eyes

Why you wanna despise, ****?

Yeah, this ain't a game

I'm alive

So I'm tryna enterprise, ****

Why you tryna jeopardise

How a player provide, huh?

Still I rise like the five percent limo tint, ****

Why you tryna jeopardise

How a player provide, huh?

Still I rise like the five percent limo tint, ****
