Born to Rise

[Intro – soft, melodic]
Yeah-ehh…
Little ocelot in a big wide world…
Ursula… mmh…
[Verse 1]
Ursula born where the cold winds cry
Small little cub with a question “why?”
Stars in her eyes but tears she hide
Jungle too loud, nowhere to confide
Every night she look at the moon
Praying her season go change soon
Heart so heavy but she stay strong
Singing her pain in a silent song
[Pre-Chorus]
They say, “Stay where you are, don’t dream too far”
But her soul no fit inside that bar
Spots on her skin, fire within
She know one day she go win
[Chorus – Catchy Afrobeat hook]
Ursula… no go give up now
Even when the rain fall down
Dance through the pain somehow
Your time dey come around
Ursula… hear the drum inside
Every scar just make you shine
From the jungle to the skyline
You were born… born to rise
[Verse 2]
Hungry days and lonely nights
Running from fear, chasing the light
They laugh at the dreams she say
But she still believe anyway
Footprints deep in the sand
Building her world with her own hand
Every setback, every fall
Make her spirit ten feet tall
[Bridge – Emotional moment]
Oh-oh…
If you see her cry, na silent tears
Fighting doubts and fighting fears
But deep inside she know her worth
She’s more than where she from at birth
[Final Chorus – Bigger energy]
Ursula… no go slow down now
Let the rhythm heal your soul
Every battle make you whole
Your story just dey unfold
Ursula… hear the drum inside
Every scar just make you shine
From the jungle to the skyline
You were born… born to rise
