RISE


Arise on your on feet its time to start the day

Rise to your feet and  let them lead the way 

Rise to the challenge and do your best 

Once you done your part let Him do the rest

 

Now in order to rise, you got to fall 

And do what it takes just to get it all.

Back to the fact you have the knack to put the impact 

On the ones who lack the effort to track the stack 

Of a brighter future and a better life 

The one thats not filled with pain and strife 

 

You got to RISE, just RISE and dont fall to your demise 

You gotta recognize the world is filled with real eyes and real lies 

Just Realize 

Your special in every way 

Just be who you are with a lot to say 

 

You have the mind, the soul, and superior intellect 

That we should collect with respect and not reject 

That it will soon reflect, not deflect, and affect 

Our state of mind so it will be correct 

 

So reach to the top and never hold back 

Never be afraid to reach for the top of the stack 

 

No one should reprimand, nor give their back hand 

For their use of command and we should not disband 

Instead we should take a stand and give a helping hand 

So we can understand, God has the upper hand 

No one should remand, so that we can expand 

And raise up our right hand and tell them that WE CAN

Now here as I stand as a young man 

In the land of supply and demand 

All you got to do is 

RISE
