Life no be easy oo
Jah know my heart…

HOOK / CHORUS (8 bars)
I dey walk through the pain, still I rise
Mama cry but I still survive
Dark nights, no light by my side
But I trust in God, I no go lie
They say I go fail, still I rise
Broken dreams but I still fight
From the dust yeah I still shine
Still I rise… still I rise
---
VERSE 1 (16 bars)
Growing up fast, no map for the road
Fake love show when the money no show
Smile on my face but my heart too cold
Too many stories I never told
Friends turn strangers overnight
When you fall down, nobody dey sight
I learn patience be my only shield
If God dey with me, who I go fear?
Sleep on the floor, dream on the throne
Talk to Jah when I’m all alone
Every scar turn lesson for me
Pain try break me, e no fit kill me
---
PRE-HOOK (4 bars – melodic)
If I fall today
I go rise again
Jah light my way
Through the storm and rain
---
HOOK / CHORUS (8 bars)
I dey walk through the pain, still I rise
Mama cry but I still survive
Dark nights, no light by my side
But I trust in God, I no go lie
They say I go fail, still I rise
Broken dreams but I still fight
From the dust yeah I still shine
Still I rise… still I rise
---
VERSE 2 (12–16 bars)
I no dey chase fame, I dey build name
Same people wey laugh go shout my name
Street get eye, e dey watch my lane
One wrong step, they go spread your shame
If tomorrow bless me with the crown
I no go forget when I was down
I do am for the nights I cried
For the days I starved but I still tried
Loyalty rare, that’s what I see
That’s why I move slow, move carefully
From pain to purpose, I change my story
Youngbilly rise for the glory
---
OUTRO (Hook Half – Fade)
Still I rise…
Through the pain I rise…
Jah know my heart, Jah know my fight
Still I rise…
