WOMBAT - Rise Up

Yeah
You can say that I ain't right
Smoke so much yeah I blaze like I hate life
?, I'm okay but my brains fried
Like I'm crazy but sane at the same time
Fuck the fame I'm ashamed of my name type
It's a cage and I'm breaking it late night
Saking a strain with a page and a bass line
Slaving away never played on the safe side
Wait, I gotta shout for my crew's sake
We found out a few mates are two-faced
True snake, you tripped out then grew hate
But it's too late you bitched out and moved states
So I won't sway I'm unable to turn or quit
'Till the flames that I spray might burn a bridge
It's okay 'coz my aim is to murder shit
Until I'm changing the game like Kerser did
How many doubters are now getting shitty
'Coz they thought I was down for the count
Wasn't out of the bound
I was now setting gritty
With the pen letting out all the sound that is in me
I think I'm working in overdrive
Like my circuitry's motorised
Said I'd learn and it's no surprise
That if the moments night
That I could grow to rise
You don't know but I know the sky
I guess we get drunk of the misery
Stuffing the victory
Doesn't mean to shit to me
Stuck in a trip from the drugs that I've hit
'Till I'm bugging and twitching
You must've been kidding me
It's like I've suffered an injury
I feel stuck like cuffs are restricting me
I say to fuck with this industry
'Coz I literally don't give a fuck what you's think of me

Like where do I start
Hand on my heart but I tear it apart
I'll stand in the dark with a flair that I've sparked
As I laugh like I'm careless
I'm scared of my past
I'm fair with 'em hearts
Like yo, will I die young?
Broken inside but I'll go for the triumph
'Coz I'll grind to the moment I rise
If you didn't watch out just know that I'll rise up

Like where do I start
Hand on my heart but I tear it apart
I'll stand in the dark with a flair that I've sparked
As I laugh like I'm careless
I'm scared of 'em past
I'm fair with 'em hearts
Like yo, will I die young?
Broken inside but I'll go for the triumph
'Coz I'll grind to the moment I rise
If you didn't watch out just know that I'll rise up

But they're telling me I lost my buzz
What the fuck have I done
Was it not enough?
Like, flat out was constant rush
Onto drugs, not buds I was popping stuff
Off my nut, not once was I offered trust
I got off that stock, I'm not on the stuff
But I still feel lost as fuck
Or all trapped like a cop with cuffs
I'm like what's the fuss
'Coz it's all a sick game
I thought I was safe
Now I'm more than insane
I was born for the stage
And you saw my gigs aye?
I spit too raw to support the big names
But, fuck a slow paced set
You pave your own way to my road rage
When the race has no lane well it's okay then
No players
No game
There is no safe end
But, am I meant to be a grown-up?
Well I don't feel like I've grown up
I feel so fucked that I go numb
But I close up like cuts that were sewn shut
Nah, I don't wanna be alone
But I'm a loner
It's the way that I've grown so I don't know
? But I'm over it
Smoke a bit
Tokes get stoned
Then I choke on it
Coz no light but the skies are grey
I got my eyes on the prize but the light could fade
Should I reside to the side or resign the page
I won't write coz I'll find a way
I write rhymes of a night
Tell em why?
'Coz I'm wide awake
I'm not tired
I'll die for the mic like I might escape
'Coz some wait for their life to change
But why wait?
C'mon fight to decide your fate

Like where do I start
Hand on my heart but I tear it apart
I'll stand in the dark with a flair that I've sparked
As I laugh like I'm careless
I'm scared of 'em past
I'm fair with my hearts
Like yo, will I die young?
Broken inside but I'll go for the triumph
'Coz I'll grind to the moment I rise
If you didn't watch out just know that I'll rise up

Like where do I start
Hand on my heart but I tear it apart
I'll stand in the dark with a flair that I've sparked
As I laugh like I'm careless
I'm scared of 'em past
I'm fair with my hearts
Like yo, will I die young?
Broken inside but I'll go for the triumph
'Coz I'll grind to the moment I rise
If you didn't watch out just know that I'll rise up
