Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Uh, by any means necessary
Not reaching my full potential, that thought is kinda scary
So I gotta get it going, gotta step it up
My passion and what I'm doing now ain't matching up
My job don't got me going anywhere no time soon
Don't like my major, I'm just tryna get up out of school
Just coasting' by, but I'm sick and tired of struggling
No more excuses now it's time to put some hustle in
And get up off my lazy butt
It's time to set some goals
No more sleeping in, it's time to make my dreams unfold
Cuz the early bird is the one who gets heard
I got a lot to say so go and spread the word
I'm getting out my own way so take a step aside
I'm taking leaps of faith so hello fear, I'm not gon' hide
Cuz I can't stay right here where I'm at
So I'm stepping to the plate
And I'm not got' turn back

[Chorus]
I know there's more to life than this
I gotta RISE UP
Where I'm at ain't good enough
I gotta RISE UP
Can't be like this forever
So I gotta RISE UP
I will RISE UP
I must RISE UP

[Verse 2]
I'm not gon' let my past determine my future
I'm not gon' sit around and sulk
I'm gonna use the struggle and trouble
All of the pain and strife to be by greatest motivation
And continue in this fight for a better life
Cuz let me tell you I'm not happy here
I cannot be in this same position come next year
So let me go I gotta get out this hole
I cannot settle for less
I'm hungry craving more
I, wanna be a source of hope to all my family
And be a light to little cousins coming after me
No matter the weather, no matter come what may
I will make it and survive! I will stand and find my way out!
And speak to my future and speak to my dreams
And speak to the mountains that are placed in front of me
Cuz I can't stay right here where I'm at
So I'm stepping to the plate and I'm not gon' turn back

[Chorus]
I know there's more to life than this
I gotta RISE UP
Where I'm at ain't good enough
I gotta RISE UP
Can't be like this forever
So I gotta RISE UP
I will RISE UP
I must RISE UP
