Still Rising by Tunji Lyrics

We on our way to the top and still rising
We on our way to the top and still rising
Came all the way from the block
And don't know how to stop
We on our way to the top and still rising
Life is a mountain you've got to keep climbing
With every tick of the clock you keep striving
Watching the horizon got to keep surviving
To all my people who searching you will find it

So far to go - Rise Up
So much to know - Rise Up
But I'm in control - Rise Up
Cause this is my soul - Rise Up
So far to go - Rise Up
So much to know - Rise Up
But I'm in control - Rise Up
Cause this is my soul - Rise Up

I see my life like it's a motion picture
That I'm staring in and wrote the script for
So by the end I'll be unanimously the chosen victor
Been working on this potent mixture of this smoke and liquor
Got me zoning thinking about the things I hope and wish for
Trying to get the Spanish villa with the ocean vista
And 6 more for my folks and sisters
I'm quite focused keep working on my writing
It's funny when I feel the worst is when I write the dopest
As I step through life making chess moves
Bound to be a king because I study what the best do
My soul is balanced and flow is kind of fresh too
When you put in work you will be surprised at what it gets you
We on our way to the top and still rising
We on our way to the top and still rising
Came all the way from the block
And don't know how to stop
We on our way to the top and still rising
Life is a mountain you've got to keep climbing
With every tick of the clock you keep striving
Watching the horizon got to keep surviving
To all my people who searching you will find it

So far to go - Rise Up
So much to know - Rise Up
But I'm in control - Rise Up
Cause this is my soul - Rise Up
So far to go - Rise Up
So much to know - Rise Up
But I'm in control - Rise Up
Cause this is my soul - Rise Up

I use to wonder what the future holds
Then I decided to get musical
Now I'm moving at light speed and I refuse to slow
To view this music as musings of a toothless soul
Trying to get the funds like you the feelings mutual
Choose to go my own path and though it starts easy
It's getting harder so I wander where my heart leads me
Momma wanted a brain surgeon
She asked me to refrain from the cursing
But fuck it I'm still the same person
Stain the earth with my pen when the pain worsens
I updated the flow you all go the lame version
See this is hip-hop 2.0
So roll a couple blunts and let a few joints blow
While I spit my new joint and let me viewpoint show
Of my two pennies I can spare to let my few coins go
While I stack dollars and let the people in the back holler
Future draft dodger product of a whack father
Young pharaoh if you want to take it back farther
Fresh flow like a fade from a black barber
We act smarter cause I'm book smart
Took to heart the life lessons that I learned from the good parts
I stay focused on the light when it looks dark
Kept moving cause your journey ends where you foot starts
Feel like I'm in the constant pursuit of true brilliance
Malcolm taught me with my words I can move millions
So I always speak my mind
And each time I design a rhyme its gonna define
Who I am who I was and who I grew to be
Still rising living life like it's new to me
We on our way to the top and still rising
We on our way to the top and still rising
Came all the way from the block
And don't know how to stop
We on our way to the top and still rising
Life is a mountain you've got to keep climbing
With every tick of the clock you keep striving
Watching the horizon got to keep surviving
To all my people who searching you will find it

So far to go - Inverse
So much to know - Young
But I'm in control - My man Kno
Cause this is my soul
So far to go - Nautica Swag
So much to know - Feels good
But I'm in control - Still Rising Rise with Us
Cause this is my soul

Kno you are a fucking genius...man
