Inverse - Rise And Shine lyrics

[Chorus]: There's something about a day like this that Makes me want to raise my fist and say Let's rise and shine It's time to face the world There's something about a day like this that Makes me want to raise my fist and say Let's rise and shine It's time to face the world [Verse One]: If I died tonight, I'mma keep living through words I've used Standing out in the rain singing the curbside blues See I'm a street smart rapper with a nerd's IQ Just staring down at the world giving my bird's eye view This life's short so I'm taking it one day a time Then I relive it through the stories that I say in my rhymes Stay in my grind And I'm praying to find A way to design the colors that display in my mind onto the song's canvas I'm trying to write out all my wrong answers And beat the odds cause they say that I ain't have strong chances Success always starts with a dream but The closer that it gets it's like the farther it seems Growing up I never cared about the stars on the screen And never fell for the marketing schemes targeting teens I'm a free spirit, experienced life and breathe lyrics My momma taught her son to be fearless And I'm laid back because the west is my home I got these bill collectors calling me and texting my phone I left them alone, decided they were stressing my dome I knew it all when i was younger and so much less when I'm grown alone A lost angel in the city of dreams It ain't as pretty as it seems on the video screens It's hideous things, but still I got the sun in my face, running in place But we gonna make it one of these days because [Chorus]: There's something about a day like this that Makes me want to raise my fist and say Let's rise and shine It's time to face the world There's something about a day like this that Makes me want to raise my fist and say Let's rise and shine It's time to face the world [Verse Two]: Tomorrow is not what it used to be And although forgotten, the youth I see walk in my shoes Opportunity knock and soon to be lost when obstacles move in between If all I got is the shoes on my feet I refuse to be part of the cycle And although my parents won't view it as me Truth is I see more of them features creeping through as we speak Trying to grow as an artist and a man When your life is in the music and it all begins to blend It's a give and take, of all the more I can That's always been a part that's so hard to understand I know some day, I want to be a dad But the thought of fatherhood makes you got to get a grasp on your life And any problems that you had Can't wander when the kid is there, walking in your path Trying to find some peace in myself And at the same time maybe reach someone else At the least I can speak what I felt In the moment knowing that I leave nothing held back If I was blessed with a second turn I search for what direction works and step with purpose Wouldn't stress against a worry Being less I hurry I guess it's a lesson learned [Chorus]: There's something about a day like this that Makes me want to raise my fist and say Let's rise and shine It's time to face the world There's something about a day like this that Makes me want to raise my fist and say Let's rise and shine It's time to face the world
