Rise up

Title: Rise Up (Verse 1) Uh, yeah, I was told be gay wasn’t okay, But I stood tall, never let 'em steal my sway. In a world full of hate, I found my own way, With the beats in my heart, let the rhythm play. Chillin' in the shadows, where the doubts reside, But I broke through the walls, brought my truth to light. Fists in the sky, yeah, we ready to fight, For the ones who feel lost, gotta shine, that’s right. Told me I should change, fit the mold, play safe, But I’m here to show love, in the real, no fake. Countin' all my blessings, never carry the weight, Grabbin' dreams by the throat, can't afford to be late. (Chorus) Rise up, rise up, gotta break the chains, We the warriors, and we bringin' the flames. Stand up, stand up, yeah, we takin' our place, In a world full of hate, love is our grace. (Verse 2) Feel the bass in my chest as I step on the scene, Livin' life unapologetically, you know what I mean? Echoes of the past can’t hold back my drive, Every step that I take, yeah, I thrive to survive. They tried to box me in, said I don’t belong, But my heart’s like a drum, and I’m beatin' the wrong. With my crew by my side, we forever be strong, Chasin' dreams in the night, hear our anthem, it’s on. From the struggle, we rise, through the fire, we glow, Each layer of my heart, that’s the truth that I show. Put my pain in the verses, turn my hurt into flow, In a world where they frown, we forever gon’ grow. (Chorus) Rise up, rise up, gotta break the chains, We the warriors, and we bringin' the flames. Stand up, stand up, yeah, we takin' our place, In a world full of hate, love is our grace. I'm juicy flow baby, take it or leave it, Loving me is like a dream, can you believe it? Sailing on vibes, can anybody perceive it? Life's a melody, only real ones can achieve it. (Verse 2) Rockin' both worlds, yeah, I'm on my own ride, Crushing it hard, got that feeling of pride. Wave surfer, yeah, I'm chasing that high tide, Can't put me in a box, my spirit won't hide. Got that alpha aura, yea, it's contagious, Life's a trip — wild and outrageous. In the mirror, the reflection advantageous, In the game of love, I am courageous.
