still I rise

Mind heavy, but I’m counting all these blessings, Heart racing, but I’m learning all these lessons, Dark days, yet I’m shining through the pressure, Grind hard, every moment is a treasure. Thoughts deep, like the ocean, I’m submerged, Keep my head above the waves, I’m still emerged, Life’s a puzzle, I’m just trying to find the pieces, Smiling through the struggles, pain never ceases. Eyes on the prize, yeah, I’m destined for the throne, Fighting through the shadows, but I never walk alone, Streetlights flicker, showing paths I should avoid, Still I navigate the maze, every doubt gets destroyed. Count my wins, let the losses fade to black, Stack my dreams like bricks, never looking back, Through the storm, I remain a steady vessel, Rising from the dark, yeah, I’m blessed with the wrestle. Mind heavy, but I’m counting all these blessings, Lessons learned in the dark, now I’m manifesting, Stressin’ in the booth, but I’m still flexin’, Enemies lurk, but I’m never second-guessing. Came from the mud, now I’m reppin’ my section, Heart cold, but my soul’s got a connection, Countin’ up the wins, while they drown in depression, Rebellious spirit, got ‘em lost in my direction. City lights flash, but I’m grounded in the essence, Took the pain and turned it to a lethal weapon, Voices in my head, but they only teach aggression, Hustle in my veins, can’t escape this obsession. Watch me rise above, while they drown in regression, Built from the struggle, it’s a hard-earned lesson, Savage with the pen, every line is a confession, Mind heavy, but I’m counting all these blessings. Wakin' up dead but I’m breathin’ in the shadows, Fightin' through the struggle, life a game of hard battles. Heart heavy, soul weary, but I’m still on my grind, Every step I take, feel the weight on my mind. Tested by the streets, they be pushin' my limits, Grit in my veins, yeah, I’m built for the scrimmage. Lost in the dark, but I shine like a beacon, Risin' from the ashes, hear the cries of the weaken. Survivor’s instinct, I’m a wolf in the mist, Fangs sharp, heart cold, but I still persist. Life’s a harsh teacher, lessons carved in my skin, Every scar a story, let the struggle begin. With no will left, but I’m givin' my all, Standin' tall through the storm, I refuse to fall. Echoes of the past, but I’m breakin’ the chains, In the depths of the night, I’m ignitin' the flames.
