Rise Lyrics by Daymond John

Visualize

2018

Queens is where I’m at
Queens get the money
Queens already on the map
Life has been so amazing to me
It’s not been easy
I think about the things that have happened to me in the past
And it made me a stronger person
It’s not unlike what you’ve been through as well
You’re just like me
You’re battle tested, you’re baptized by the fire
I never met a strong person that had a easy past
Don’t tell people your dream, you show it to them
David and Goliath
It just takes patience to defeat a giant
What’s a lamb to a lion
I’m hungry for it all I’m climbing up when I fall
Boss where I’m defiant
Where I’m from it’s a dog eat dog world
I’m just glad I survived it
I’m glad I survived it
We all lose our track and our path in life sometimes
It’s happened to you, it’s definitely happened to me
When I just got out of High School
I barely made it out of High School
I didn’t go to college
I suffered from what we call “analysis paralysis”
Imma start tomorrow, next season next season next season
I never got out the gate
I start to fail at everything I tried
Or maybe I tried to fail at everything that I wanted to do
I was afraid
I started to live to work
Darkness fell over me
I let society start setting my goals for me
You know the goals they already set for you
You’re supposed to be dead or in jail by 21
You never gonna make it out the hood
The negative thoughts start to take over my body more and more and more
Many of my friends actually did set those goals that society set for them
And they accomplished it
David and Goliath
It just takes patience to defeat a giant
What’s a lamb to a lion
I’m hungry for it all I’m climbing up when I fall
Boss where I’m defiant
Where I’m from it’s a dog eat dog world
I’m just glad I survived it
I’m glad I survived it
(The secret of having it all is to believe that you already do and you do
And that’s why you will rise
Don’t let how you feel make you forget what you deserve)
You already know the fundamentals of life
The way to stay number one is to work like you’re number two
Speak the truth, even if your voice shakes and if so, you will rise
You survive because of the fire inside of you burned brighter than the fire around you
I want you to be constantly on the hunt for who you have not become yet
The more you think like this, the more you will rise
I’m sharing with you now the principle on the way to think so that you can rise
When everybody’s out there planning their day I want you to plan your empire
If you want something you’ve never had before
You’re gonna have to do something you’ve never done before
We are judged by what we finished and not what we start
I want you to constantly be on the hunt for who you have not become yet
And if you think like this, you will rise
