16. Rise (feat. Braille, Propaganda and Cha'Rel Wright)

Magnificent
by Proxy



 

Verse 1 (Braille):
Rise from the ashes – my pride and passion is to prize the everlastin’ – more than self-satisfaction,
But on the average – my actions show that I’m more of a savage and less of a saint – now I’m learnin’ lessons in restraint,
Cause it’s so easy to taint the picture you try to paint,
When you try with all your strength to do something you can’t,
Stretchin’ to rhyme – rise to the occasion,
I’m here lookin’ for signs – waitin’ for the right time,- to stretch wings instead of rhyme schemes,
But it seems like these arms – might not be able to fly,
Let’s be real – I walk on land with two feet – the earth dweller,
No feathers, no propellers, no jetpack on my back,
It’s a setback – but when I step back I see the contrast,
The rise and the fall – I acknowledge it all,
My sin, my guilt, my shame, my God have mercy on a sinner like me – I wanna rise!

Chorus:
We didn’t start the fire – but one thing’s for sure yeah we came to burn,
Pushing out the planet - had to wait my turn, enough is enough I'm about to erupt – blow up, watch me rise!
I rise! (Repeat 6x)
Rise! (Repeat 6x)

Verse 2 (Propaganda):
Homie the story is not new – it’s practiced and rehearsed,
And my little brothers’ blood is still stain on my converse,
Courage to fight wars – man it ain’t really that extreme I just – picture my daughters face and run straight to the screams,
And I’ve never accepted that environments can make a person – too many good examples and ample exceptions,
Serious sufferin’ servant service – the wordiest of all emcees should all be nervous – boy I ain’t budgin’,
Still hold a grudge and I bludgeon my own flesh and –
Serve these superfluous rappers with superb word play,
As long as Elohim pleases – He excites – my windpipes – with cool breezes – of insight – to ignite change,
I don’t even speak of haters – waste of breadth – don't care at all,
I am in communication with the one who made it all,
Elevate – execute – excellent – no excuse,
Confident – competent – the risen King – He’s got this, yeah!

(Chorus)

Proxy Verse:
Internal pressure mounted, too many mistakes to count it, my worst enemy is me will I ever break loose - break free? Some doubt it,
Because how I act about it, but still I talk about my destiny - what I want to be - success and my reach out and grab it,
Self sabotage my story,- lot of hard work - little glory, with friends like me who needs enemies - judges and juries,
Everyday I'm guilty - so filthy - not worthy, hangups hung me to dry - so many times - livin a lie,
Feels like I gotta die - for me to fly, something is calling my name - calling me out - tellin me to rise,
Above statistical facts - every last odd they've stacked, them generational whips - that I got on my back,
Something’s gotta change, and it starts with me, I gotta resist - rebel - re-escape - all for that "give us free",
Awake from from your sleep - slumber no more, tomorrow's right now let's sing out show the world what we came here for!!

(Chorus)
