rise again

almost reaching the top of the thrown - only if they didn't tempt me with patron knowing drinking is my weakness now they know the true meaning of my sickness; i'm off the trail, set up to fail; DEVIL on my back, since the day i was born i've been under attack. everyone wants to see me dead, problem is i won't die even i've tried - yes to take my own life; but GOD believes in my fight - i can't cry and i refuse to lie, REAL flows through my veins and they don't have that but they want that, so they suck me dry; leaches attrack to my skin, even without me having to swim, DIM the lights tonight, i'll let my dreams take hold of the fight; the light keeps me awake and alive but darkness and death i've been familiar with for a while, now my enemies seek to put me on trial, they don't believe i can make it, they say i'm faking it, they don't think i can chase it, so they figure i should pay for it, suffer for it, cry for it, plea for it - the thing is it's my SOUL, my GOAL, my RACE, my DREAMS only i can achieve; it's not my fault they don't believe, i am me and they hate the fact that my strength defines my beauty and as my beauty defines my soul, they DIG a deeper hole for my mind, body, & soul. when i'm down they kick me & smile at the same time, but i'm on the rise of coming up from this hole they call HELL & when i come up they better be prepared, cuz i don't compare to anyone & i promise to GOD i'm not falling into the devils night ever again, its where the vultures fly high & the demons lurk the ground, but when i RISE i will be found; there's too much in store for the chosen, so i dedicate this to all of my FALLEN angels, there's still hope to RISE again.
