[Verse 1]
Set the bar so high, I try to hold on but I
Am lifted above the earth and wished the worst of the guy
That rises
That rises with a touch of midas
I'll find this
Slicing corners like a four inch knife that
I might switch
With a blade of tri- propeller to switch places or die omega
No basics, propel to greatness
No climate
Control up at the summit, cuz I
Didn't climb it
I don't know the struggle from it, I thought id
I find that
Dullness and empty stomach, would be
Diamonds
And cherry wine
When I reach the glorious trumpets
But I missed
That even dreams and beautiful pictures
Have fine print
Trickery of
Confinement
Ability in the
Mind set
Rope ladder made of barbed wire had to cause you to, pause die or, watch higher, but your palms tired, extinguishing the drive inside you before it caught fire
But that's what life is
If you tried and failed, tried again with no avail, at least you wouldn't be
Spineless
Like the guy that
Let the plane fly
Auto pilot
You'll be the same as the
Nine-eleven bombers that got the plane in air but wouldn't be able to find the landing gear if you were to ask them to
Find it
If you were to ask them to find it
Find it
[hook]
Find the way that I can stay rising
Rising
Rising
Rising
Set the bar so high, I try to hold on but I
Am lifted above the earth and I wish the worst of the guy
That rises
Rises
Rises
Rises
Rises
[Verse 2]
What you think my name means
Ive been living the same dreams
Smiling when they say cheese
Thinking that someone gon' save me
And lately, oh I mean daily
I've had these crazy
Thoughts all to myself that
Maybe, oh man just maybe
Success can happen overnight
Colder shoulders to more advice
Open holsters no sword tonight
No remote is gon pause the fight
Only hoping the people gon say my name like I'm Walter White
Tell me when it's time to Break the Bad news
To spill the sad the truth
So foolishly
Thought that I could stay tru to me
Just like I try to usually
But the truth hit me brutally
If I wanna stay daggmatic I gotta move past stagnant
And keep improving me, improving me
[Hook]
Find the way that I can stay rising
Rising
Rising
Rising
Rising
Set the bar so high, I try to hold on but I
Am lifted above the earth and I wish the worst of the guy
That stays
Rising
Rising
Rising
Rising
[Verse 3]
Woke up
Went outside
Drank some poison
Almost died
Start my engine
Hell of a ride
Flew in the sky
Jumped and then dived
Only to find
That even if I row my boat
With all these hopes to stay afloat
It will sink and I'll die
Got no chance to survive
But before I sink too far below the surface
I realize i need to find a way to swim up with a greater purpose, so im thrashing and pounding
Thrashing and pounding
For the fight to stay rising, not captured and bounded
Captured and bounded
I'm searching and reaching for something with urgency meaning my stomach is churning and squeezing
I'm tryna find a way to stay from lapsing and drowning
Collapsing
But I think I finally had to have found it
And I'm glad that i found it
Now Will I leave my dreams of ascension grabbed or grounded
