Rising Again (feat. Da' T.R.U.T.H. & Sharyn)

They said they like the introspective Trip who gives it all Sliding on beat drops when talking 'bout his falls Inspired by Mr Cole and Mr thirty-two Who messed around in his twenty's and his thirties too Watching the morning news, nothing new I'm amused by the views of my Ghana girl Who I can say is now my muse Muting the music is foreign, I'm like a forerunner running For greater causes, I'm cautious – the second coming is coming Cunning and devious are the ways of a tempter Attempting to take attention My writing's like a ten out of ten Tenet again – that means when you play back You hear back So you're rewinding sense again I'm feeling stress at work – pressures of a nine to five Teams on my work lap Meanwhile see the mac, writing another line Work calls on the second phone, insta on mine If I take my time, then I'm taking time Tale of two cities, Manny and L D N I'm like Annie – I saw the hard knock life – the vanity Feed the blind, they like the lights, anarchy I can speak with totality Overhead is the canopy Like umbrella academy Number five beyond time Present gift, I'm so glad to be Giving up without quitting Till I'm the first in line Like I was January – mad at me I no longer be Cause he's forgiven me for being me Like WCW and a broken bee Loosing sting is what death lost when death lost The price of life is one man's cross when God was cross Now they look at my horse power like Ascot And see the stage with His glory - WOW, what a backdrop! I see too many liars' caps lock Fitted with boredom, when will the lack stop? My Lord is bolder, He is that rock And see the stage with His glory - WOW, what a backdrop! Looking back from where I'm from I didn't know what I could become, yeah The pressure has caused some pain But here I am raising again They say if you look into the future you stricken with dread Look too deep into the past and you live with regrets That's why I'm in the present getting some rest White chocolate mocha, good music and the biblical text Already said sorry for the things that I've done I done battled with some demons this season is fun I done spent enough weekends, The weakest of them Now I rather talk about the all the reasons I won I guess it all started with how i postured my heart Heard the whispers in the room like A fly on da wall Grace is for the people that rise and they fall, Deep sigh From a kid to a thriving Adult Sometimes sorry is for God and nobody else Other times apologize for compromising they trust After you grovel for a minute Remember that you're forgiven And if you tend to forget, keep Remind yourself Get up boy! Wash your face then get back in da game The quarter is not important If they asking for change Huddle up, with ya tribe if you lacking restraint Find yourself a good therapist that won't laugh at ya' pain Self-discovery and healing all through various means Bible reading and prayer repair the esteem Put Meditation and self-care Give da clarity you need Walk close cause with God Not as bad as it seems Looking back from where I'm from I didn't know what I could become, yeah The pressure has caused some pain But here I am raising again To my first born To see the moment you were you were born That was beauty personified Emotional, didn't cry Skin to skin; now my heart is alive which has given me drive Years so far apart, were the worst ones I'm writing this so you know that you were the one that made me You came and changed me for better as I think of you daily At the moment of writing this, I don't know your voice I stay calm Cause a day is coming soon when we listen back Together, and you can ask me the questions Then holding you in my arms Both singing together dance, Taking a last glance of yester-year We stand and address the fear I'm never letting go, tear apart every dripping tear The tears I used to cry begin to cease No more asking permission, I get to see you with ease Now I feel like a father, I say it and I believe You're all that I ever wanted and all that I ever need
