Standin Tall

[Intro] [Verse 1] Yo, I came from the bottom where the lights don’t shine Had to f***t for my name, had to grind for my time Every scar on my skin is a w*r I survived Now my pen cut deep, every word stay alive Never begged for a lane, I just built me a road When the world said stop, I put pain in my flow I’m a product of the block, steel heart, cold tone Turned struggle into fire, now I’m sittin’ on a throne [Hook 1] You can try to break me, but I rise again Every tear I cried turns to diamonds in the rain I’m unshaken, unbroken, I’ll never fall I’m standin’ tall, I’m standin’ tall [Verse 2] Yo, I spit venom, my rhythm’s a weapon When I step in, I’m wreckin’ a section in seconds No half-steppin’, I’m reppin’ my essence You messin’ with legends, I’m stressin’ the lessons Came from the dirt where the sirens scream Every night was a f***t just to chase a dream I seen brothers turn ghost, seen queens lose hope But I still held the rope when the world said nope [Hook 2] You can try to break me, but I rise again Every tear I cried turns to diamonds in the rain I’m unshaken, unbroken, I’ll never fall I’m standin’ tall, I’m standin’ tall [Verse 3] They wanna see me down, wanna see me fold But I’m fire in the winter, I’m ice in the cold Every line’s like a shot, every b**t’s my zone I’m the king in this ring, and I’m claimin’ the throne This is more than rap, this survival songs For the people in the back still holdin’ on If you feel what I’m sayin’, then you know the call We gon’ f***t till we win, we gon’ stand tall [Hook 3] You can try to break me, but I rise again Every tear I cried turns to diamonds in the rain I’m unshaken, unbroken, I’ll never fall I’m standin’ tall, I’m standin’ tall (Ad-libs: “Ohhh I rise… yeah, I rise…”) [Outro]
