Lyrics Still I Rise by Kamaiyah

I've been taken advantage of
Some of my best friends snitched on me
Got me lookin' around like, "Which homie?" 'Cause my day ones switched on me
Some of my family members are only DNA in common
For a couple dollars, and they'll promise
To lay your mama and wouldn't think twice about it

I go crazy, don't I? I go cuckoo
Drippin' brazy, don't I? In that new-new
Hustle one hundred straight nights to get a new coupe
Leave messages on Shay line, that's my boo-boo, mwah
I enjoy loyalty, uh, 'cause I'm royalty, uh
Baby spoil me, uh, that mean more to me, uh
Trеat me like I'm special, that's gon' gеt you foreign keys
Diamonds on my neck prolly cost a quarter ki'
Don't make no sense-sense, how they glis'-glis'
I'm a big deal, these b*t*hes throwin' big fits
Tryna catch a vibe and stand close to a rich b*t*h
I shoot my shot, I bet your n***a, bet I swish-swish
I'm movin' militant (Uh) I'm a monster (Uh)
Pushin' my ex to catch the body but he locked up (Uh)
All that sh*t that's goin' down, I stay on top of (Uh)
I specialize in solid rides and pop-ups (Uh)

I can't trust nobody, I tried
Stood in my face, kept tellin' me lies
On my own ten toes, n***a, I stood high
Tried to hold me down, n***a, still I rise

Fraud motherf**kers ain't real like this (For real)
Turn me into a savage, I'm militant (For real)
Smile in your face but they envious (For real)
I need reparations and millions

I'm a savage
Dress classy, but I still be totin' ratchets
Finessing for that bread, I gotta have it
Want a blessing? Well lil' b*t*h, come get nasty
b*t*h, I'm livin' lavish
I got expensive habits, I fully done got my weight up
Built an empire with the paper
Dressed in all black like the Raiders
Black gun came with a red laser
f**k you b*t*h, gotta pay me for a favor
You n***as be low-key haters
High-key, I'm a paper chaser, rock upon angels
But I'm a f**kin' Hell raiser, soul snatcher, undertaker
Catch a opp, n***a, see ya later
Put a opp on a ventilator
f**kin' on your thot, I'm her father, b*t*h, I'm Darth Vader
How she callin' me daddy? Woulda thought I made her
Had cake since a jit, I could've been f**ked Anna Mae
Shout out to Frisco, just made a mil' in the bay
Ran up these racks, I'm eatin' tenderloin steaks
The East O with me, can't get sh*t up off my plate

I can't trust nobody, I tried
Stood in my face, kept tellin' me lies
On my own ten toes, n***a, I stood high
Tried to hold me down, n***a, still I rise

Fraud motherf**kers ain't real like this (For real)
Turn me into a savage, I'm militant (For real)
Smile in your face but they envious (For real)
I need reparations and millions
