Still I Rise
August 25, 2015
Hold it down and they stab you
And act like they're wounded, just rise
They won't be around when you're down
Stay down until you come up
And they act like they knew you, just rise
Rising like bread in the oven
Trying to mentor my peers cooking dope in the oven
Disperse like me, rise little brother, rise
