rise up - desmond lyrics
rise up
verse 1
grandma said the devil will give me a job if i’m idle
so don’t be surprised if i have a gun instead of a bible
nothing on the streets for me but trouble
i don’t want to go to jail and be in that struggle
chorus
every time i beat a drum i feel like i wanna rise up
every time i get on stage i feel like i wanna rise up
every time i start to dance i wanna rise up
i’m gonna wise up, and rise up, use my talent to rise up
verse 2
sometimes workin hard is like a waste of time
like grandma said wastin time is really a crime
so i’m gonna work hard and put in my hours, oh yeah
so i get better and quiet all the naysayers
bridge
i just want to get up every morning and be like those i admire
i will put my heart into my playing my song so i can inspire
i just need a hand to achieve my heart’s desire
i need a teacher and a mentor, someone to push me higher
