Martin Luther Rise
What's happnin' little brother
Are you (still) getting by?
On the corner everyday, you like to pay
Are you still (are you still), getting high?
Now I'm only your reflection
Deeply by the chocolate soul complexion
But here we go to rise again
Would you please tell a friend
To come on in
Take your time and make sure that you do it right
While the Cadillac leans from side to side while I'm hangin' with my friends
Just to be alive is a reason to ride, especially with my kin
Hit a little something that will feel it right
Just might hit it again (just might hit it again)
Open your eyes don't you be surprised, when we start to win
Sometimes I want to feel like I'm the one in control (nothing to loose yea)
And take back every element of me that they stole (so hard)
I'll be fine when I heal my mind, body, and soul (Until then)
Take your time (take your time) and make sure that you do it righ
(we'll be makin' moves)
Makin' moves while knowing God is on our side
While the Cadillac leans from side to side when I'm hangin' with my friends
Just to be alive is a reason to ride, especially with my kin
Hit a little something that will feel it right
Just might hit it again. (just might hit it again)
Open your eyes don't you be surprised, when we start to win
(in case you didn't know)
I feel you all the time (when is it gonna work out, I have no doubt)
Yes I do, I do (this song is a dedication to the inspirational.. )
I know your grindin but I want you to keep in mind
Take your time and make sure you do it right (make sure that you do it right yeaaa)
Makin movies while knowing God is on our side
(you gotta know, you just got to believe yea)
No one can make you want it more than you, so rise (don't you ever)
Don't give up the spirit of the phoenix, rise!
Don't give up the spirit of the phoenix, rise!
Don't give up the spirit of the phoenix, rise!
