[Pre-Chorus]

People died, tryna get close

Who’s willin' to climb, until they let go?

One in a million, for 'em to really blow

The rest of y’all just fadin' like an echo


[Chorus]

Demons, in my head, make me feel alone

I see ghosts, when I’m sleepin', they fiend for my soul

But, hell no, I’m not leavin'

I’m reachin' my goal

Keep on climbin' that mountain

I rise to the top, on my own


[Verse 1]

Rise to the top, by my own means

With the homies, outta OP,  low-key

Workin’ so hard, that I don’t sleep, for weeks

Pro'bly finna die, before I make it to the top

Gotta stop, call the police, OC

I’m about to fully go at the GOAT

When I go for the gold trophy, like Kobe, unh

I do murder, with the flow, never hurtin’ for da dough

Put the money in the bag, then I skrrrt off, in the Ghost

Roethlisberger, when I throw, I don’t really think it’s bad

But I keep it on the low, not a human, I’m a GOAT

Introverted and alone, top of the mountain, I’m on!

Ooh-ooh!

So fuck around and get smoked, I'm on top of the world

At the top of my game, number one, for my age

Ooh, lot of people told me

I would never make a milli, that was silly

'Cause I’m better than ninety percent of 'em really

But, even if you get close to the top

You won’t ever make it, it's death row

Ooh!


[Pre-Chorus]

People died, tryna get close

Who’s willin' to climb, until they let go?

One in a million, for 'em to really blow

The rest of y’all, just fadin' like an echo


[Chorus]

Demons, in my head, make me feel alone

I see ghosts, when I’m sleepin', they fiend for my soul

But, hell no, I’m not leavin'

I’m reachin' my goal

Keep on climbin' that mountain

I rise to the top, on my own


[Verse 2]

Space X, I take off, Rocketman, Kim Jong

Everybody wanna say somethin’

When you’re A1, like steak sauce

Vroom-Vroom, I’m a chainsaw

When I chop the beat up, and I lay bars

In these Ray Bans, like Ray Charles

But I won the game, eight ball

Ooh! I am as good as it gets, put in the work

Blood and the sweat, stuck out my neck

For the respect, bitch, I won’t ever relent

Oh, no-no-no-no, never again

Will I fall on a stairway to heaven, I’m climbing again

As I rise to the top, from the bottom

I went from a bottomless pit

To the top of the mountain, I’m on the ascent

Ooh!

“People died tryna…” get close to that mountain top, but

“Who’s willing to climb until they…” let go and you’re fallin’ off

Goin' down in flames, like a Molotov

But I swear to God, I’ll never fall

I everlast-ed Everest, I’m a demigod and a demagogue

You can bet I’m hot, goin’ flibbity hibbity, with the pen I got

Been through a lot, won’t ever stop

Never, ever gonna let em’ get a win, on my watch

Disfigure that clock, seven figures, I want to make it

Just to give my mom, not a steady climb

But never mind it, it’s been a ride

I’ll either fall, and meet my demise, or be idolized

When I’m dead inside, I resurrect and then I rise!

Woo!


[Pre-Chorus]

People died, tryna get close

Who’s willin' to climb, until they let go?

One in a million, for 'em to really blow

The rest of y’all just fadin' like an echo


[Chorus]

Demons, in my head, make me feel alone

I see ghosts, when I’m sleepin', they fiend for my soul

But, hell no, I’m not leavin'

I’m reachin' my goal

Keep on climbin' that mountain

I rise to the top, on my own


[Outro]

Rise to the top, on my own
