Rise


 

Expectation is the product of your hope and your dedication

Seeing your dreams be fulfilled will finally be amazing

It's Crazy- To think back on when you couldn't stop it

then you wake up, look around and see you finally got it

Ironic. How some people said that you wouldn't make it

Now they got their hands out/ looking at you, begging to take it.

You can't change it- When people see who you really are

living in a world where everyone is wanting to be a star.

Man, you worked for it, you prayed for it, you made for it.

Realizing that some people cheated, they paid for it.

But it's alright- Sometimes that’s just the way of the world

But remember that soon the fake ones will be exposed.

Don't lose hope just because of the lies, it's your time.

Keep in mind it will all be worth it when you rise.
