Rising Up - MSUN, Xplicit

He told me all he wants is to be recognized

Having a vision isn’t about a set of eyes

All his life he’s been running around bending lies

Had no car in his possession

But he had the drive

Ever since he was a kid

He had a different mind

He saw that he ain’t one of us

A different kind

And swear to god

I know he fucking tried

But this twisted life

Left him so terrified

I told him keep on doing

What it is you love

Even though the whole world

Seems like it’s acting up

I know that nothing ever really

Feels enough

And all the happy moments

Don’t feel real enough

Trust me kid

You really have the Midas Touch

Put your foot on the gas

Let go of the clutch

And put your foot on the ground

Let go of the crutch

We don’t need no one

All we really have is us

I’ll do it all, do it all

Till it’s not enough

We’ll never fall, never fall

I feel it rising up!

You don’t really gotta be like no one else

The way that we are treated is just so unfair

Sometimes it really feels like there is no one left

Or maybe you’re just stronger

Now that no one cares

Let the hate become

The fuel in you

You know what you got

There’s no fooling you

They think they know it all

So they’re schooling you

They’ve been taking their shots

But you’re bulletproof

And you gotta back up

When the rain’s gone

Cuz when you brainstorm

It’s like a hailstorm

And when you learn to love

That’s when the chains form

What you wanna tell yourself

When today’s gone?

Were you on the right?

Were you on the wrong?

When you felt it all

Did you put it in a song?

What is it you need?

What is it you want?

Do you feel complete

When the crowd is gone?

I’ll do it all, do it all

Till it’s not enough

We’ll never fall, never fall

I feel it rising up!
