Watch Me Rise

[Intro]

[Verse 1]*

Watch me rise, imagine you could’ve been right by my side

You chose greed, thought I was just your seed

Now you get to see me shine, can’t deny,

Watch me rise—no surprise,

I’m anointed, I’m appointed

You left me disappointed

In humanity for failing to see the gift in me

You treated me like pleasure, never saw my treasure

You’re not on my level, you’re just a devil

Trying to kill, steal, destroy—like I’m a toy

**[Hook/Chorus]**

Watch me rise, no disguise

No more labels, I’m extremely gifted

While you get sifted, I stay lifted

Bounce back, baby, you don’t want to attack

My ancestors don’t play, you can see that

So sit back, enjoy my rise

To the empire I built on a solid foundation

While your ground shakes, I’m the revelation

**[Verse 2]**

You thought I’d break, but I bend,

Turn pain to power, I transcend

You missed the vision, now you watch from the distance

I’m the storm and the calm, the curse and the charm

I am the truth you tried to bury,

But my roots run deep, legendary

No more disguise, I wear my crown

All labels lifted, can’t hold me down

**[Hook/Chorus]**

Watch me rise, no disguise

No more labels, I’m extremely gifted

While you get sifted, I stay lifted

Bounce back, baby, you don’t want to attack

My ancestors don’t play, you can see that

So sit back, enjoy my rise

To the empire I built on a solid foundation

While your ground shakes, I’m the revelation

**[Bridge]**

You tried to dim my light, but I set the world ablaze

No more hiding, I step out the maze

Every scar’s a story, every wound a crown

Watch me rise while you fall downWatch me rise—yeah, watch me rise

No more disguise, I’m extremely gifted

Watch me rise
