(And to the brink, I will rise)
(And to the brink, I will rise)
RISE, RISE, RISE, RISE
You wanna be on top, you'd better stay on top
Fight the wake, keep your distance
Loss of everything, I'll beat your face in
Nine to five, keep your distance
You, you keep away from me
You keep away from their ingenuity!
Never gonna get what you want
Unless you stay dedicated
You ain't never gonna be the gleam
That keeps us all together
Strength from within
Strength from within
Regulate and isolate
Break yourself, make mistakes
Rearrange and learn from what you've done
Reinstate, copulate, loss of fate, be yourself
To you want, tell yourself, you'll be what you want to be
Sometimes the violence gets to me
Makes me so sick, I can't even see
(I will prevail)
Good times followed by the hard times
And the good shall return
(And this I do swear)
Through my eyes, I have seen you okay
Through suffocation, dedication, I will rise
Through the heartbreak, through the sorrow
Let it pass by till tomorrow
Yes, the city breathes, still you run
Harm yourself from yourself
Still, we crawl on this wall
Faces pale, afraid to fall
As we plummet, as we plunder
We learn a lesson that lasts forever
No more compromise
No more compromise
No more compromise
No more compromise!
Yeah!
