Talito - Still I rise Lyrics

Rappers be selling they souls
Yea
Yo
Yo
Rappers be selling they souls
Just to not even go gold
Never believe what they told
Labels be tappin they clothes
Police entrapping the bros
Gotta adapt to environment
They can't cage me i'm a flight risk
Gold watch that's a slight wrist
Head cracks when the dice flip, uh
Consistency up and Im mentally up
Man my time is too priceless
Still had the drive with no license
Pull up to hoop with a light skin
Next day I come with a dark skin
Slide in like I'm parallel parking
We reading literature often
The school didn't tell us what life is
This world it get colder than Austin
Boy wipe ya sneakers you might slip
I don't be looking for trouble
But if you want problems
We flicking your light switch
This is that seven like Mike Vick
God flow, Bravo
Been broke, Lost hope
But still, I float
But still I rise
I go I go I go I go I go I go I go
But still I rise
I go I go I go I go I go I go I go
But still I rise
I go I go I go I go I go I go I go
But still I rise
I go I go I go I go I go I go I go
But still I rise
I long for my innocence back
The hood took that
Gameboy and Yu-gi-oh Cards
Stuffed in my book bag
Eventually replaced by condoms and wave caps
Got some pussy started thinking bout growing my braids back
Fast forward I'm a man but I still gotta think back
To when we was putting 4,5 heads on a eighth sack
Hot boxing mike tyson
So lower yo base cap
They can't fire me
I might walk in with the face mask
This the cure 2
Sweet Science no we don't take jabs
I'm Sugar ray with the mini fro step my bread up to penny loaf
They say it's a chip shortage but my sums in
Got that international bag nigga my fund-yens
Too much hatred lets let the love in
25 cousins they put up 5,000 a piece
That's big business boy employ ya own
You either build or you destroy the throne
We self check man niggas aint even guarding you
Still wanna make it harder to win
All that being street martyr's should end
If you aint leaving no legacy
Then death it can't be yo destiny
They wanna hold me down
But them angels is to the left of me
But still I rise
I go I go I go I go I go I go I go
But still I rise
I go I go I go I go I go I go I go
But still I rise
I go I go I go I go I go I go I go
But still I rise
I go I go I go I go I go I go I go
But still I rise
