Rise Lyrics by Merrick G. Stein

2015

I got so much on my mind all the time
As I try to decide which way to go
All I find in your eyes are some dollar signs
As we travel on down this vacant road
Now everything we had is just a memory
That's what happens when you try to take it slow
I never thought I'd see my friend as the enemy
Now he fell off the map and he's layin' low
I remember when we used to drive around
You were changin' lanes, switchin' up
Waitin' at the metro station where you used to pick me up
Now you're MIA like Paper Planes 'cause you don't give a fuck
No responses back when I hit you up
Who knew that it would end like this
That I could lose a friend like this
But really let's just face it
Got no time for playin' games
Time is money that I wasted
Now it's time to make a change
[Hook] – 3X
I’m not comin’ down
‘Cause I’m up on the rise
And I know you don’t believe it
I can see it in your eyes (Yeah)
I can see it in your eyes
You can see it how you want to see
‘Cause I can’t be denied
Watched you take off with my visuals
And take it all for granted
‘Cause you played me like a Madoff
And you made off like a bandit
I can’t stand it
I should have seen it comin’
I should have tried to stop you right before you took off runnin’
‘Cause as I look back on the past
I should have seen it in your eyes
‘Cause the truth’ll still shine through the evilest of lies
And when people act odd, then don’t even be surprised
‘Cause sometimes an angel’s just a demon in disguise
When somebody’s out to fuck you
Better have your Plan B
‘Cause they might try to cut you down in different ways you can’t see
And I know it sounds crazy and it’s hard to believe
But be aware every time you wear your heart on your sleeve
I see life like a mountain, first you start at the trees
And as you climb further up it gets harder to breathe
But your faith is like your oxygen, it’s all that you need
To rise back up on your feet
When you fall on your knees
[Hook] - 3X
I’m not comin’ down
‘Cause I’m up on the rise
And I know you don’t believe it
I can see it in your eyes (Yeah)
I can see it in your eyes
You can see it how you want to see
‘Cause I can’t be denied
I'm not comin' down
