Still I rise Still I rise Still I rise Still Been hearin' a lot of "Too High To Riot" They study me like recitals I'm flattered I am an idol That mean I am inspiring growth I am beside myself Spirit has lifted the hoes Nigga this isn't a boast, I have been giving the most Go through my body of work That's a lot of hours fear, pride, insomnia working That's true They might see the dirt true, they gone see the work too Don't forget to look up at the stars, my boy Niggas washed, I could help you wit them bars, my boy Just hit up OakShades, send the check, heard? I'm the best out I wanna be the best heard Put my life in a song tryna get heard Just to die a hundred time like Westworld, damn I got my city on my shoulders I gotta work, work, work Don't want no pity I'm a soldier I gotta work, work, work I got my city on my shoulders I gotta work, work, work Don't want no pity I'm a soldier I gotta work, work Still I rise Still I rise Still I rise Still And kicking down doors when they hold keys Put 'em in places we won't reach Weak niggas falling for the okie 'Cause there ain't no place that we won't reach Hate your own skin and put on bleach Hard not to feel pity for those people Heavy the world with its bold evils I wish you could unsee I look at the magazine cover But they don't have this color Would you still call me a thug? If I ain't have this color That shit rhetorical, boy please Lessons we learned since like Rhodesia 'Cause black in this world never known peace Closest we came was a cold breeze On the plantation for the OGs We demand payment, f*ck the police Get no damn statement Lawyer money in my bank statement, yeah Hanging with killers, parolees I told 'em I got 'em, I got 'em I heard the top can get lonely Well so is the bottom, no problem, yeah I got my city on my shoulders I gotta work, work, work Don't want no pity I'm a soldier I gotta work, work, work I got my city on my shoulders I gotta work, work, work Don't want no pity I'm a soldier I gotta work, work Still I rise Still I rise Still I rise Still
