🎵 Title: Rise Above It All

⸻

They tried to break me in pieces…

But I learned how to rebuild in the dark.

This ain’t survival no more…

This ascension.

⸻

Pressure on my back like the world tryna sit there,

Friends turn ghosts when the vision get clearer.

Cold nights, cold floors, cold prayers,

I learned how to stand when nobody cared.

They counted my losses like that was the math,

But they never saw tears on the pages I passed.

Every scar got a story I carry in ink,

Every loss took a part but it sharpened my think.

I was down, I was broke, I was fightin’ my doubts,

Had the devil real close, had God in my mouth.

They told me “be realistic,” I chose impossible routes,

Now I’m breathin’ through storms while they choke on their doubts.

⸻

I was walkin’ through fire with faith in my chest,

Every breakdown taught me how to flex.

If the world tried to bury my soul in the sand…

I grew roots. I grew hands.

⸻

I rise above it all, yeah, I rise when I fall,

Every tear turn to fuel when I answer the call.

They tried to write my ending, I said not at all,

Now my scars sing the truth — I rise above it all.

⸻

Had my back to the wall with the wolves at my door,

Had to bleed for the lessons they don’t teach in schools.

I was tired of pretendin’ I wasn’t in pain,

So I turned all the rain into strength in my veins.

Now I breathe a little deeper when the night feel long,

Feel peace in the rhythm when the pain feel gone.

Lost people I loved, yeah, that cut real deep,

But I found myself when I couldn’t sleep.

(beat softens)

Now I’m singin’ through wounds, not rappin’ through rage,

Every chapter I lived put me back on the page.

I don’t run from the mirror, I look it in the face,

Tell my past, “thank you for the strength.”

⸻

I rise above it all, yeah, I rise when I fall,

Every tear turn to fuel when I answer the call.

They tried to write my ending, I said not at all,

Now my scars sing the truth — I rise above it all.

⸻

I was lost in the dark with a light in my chest,

Every fear tried to kill me, I lived through the test.

If you’re down on your knees and you can’t see tomorrow…

Just breathe through the pain. You’ll rise from the sorrow.

⸻

I rise above it all, yeah, I rise when I fall,

Every tear turn to fuel when I answer the call.

They tried to write my ending, I said not at all,

Now my scars sing the truth — I rise above it all.

⸻

If you’re hearin’ this and you still breathin’…

You already won the hardest fight.

Keep goin’.

You were built to rise.
