Rising Phoenix

There's a young boy

Walking through obstacles

Cut up from all the surgeries

Prosthetic picture perjury

Telling me I'm normal

But normal, they never really made me seem

They always painted me

Discriminated but levitated through all the hated scenes

So I redrew how they made it seem

But that's what you feel around vultures and all the fatal schemes

They wanna label me a cripple, that's the way it seems

Take away my right to pursue a normal life and lead

Indeed, for me

I must proceed and shine bright like the sun

Even though I know the darkness will come

It's all temporary, I can be legendary

'Cause I will never stop believing in me

It doesn't matter what you think I should be

See I am what I am, I'm the truth

I'm disabled, I'm amazing, understand

Don't you ever under-rate me see I got a second chance

And I choose to be the greatest in whatever the plan is

On my life right

I ignite like a kaboom

When I step in the room

So please don't get distracted

Yes my limbs are fractured

Still I rise from the ashes

I'm a rising phoenix

I'll rise above you

I'm a rising phoenix

I'll rise above you

On your mark get set

The pistol pops, I'm out the blocks

Hit the ground runnin'

No legs they dazed

Form of human been born to do it

That's why I be so smooth

While I do it from lead position

Watch how I keep it movin'

Usin' your lack of intuition

Presumin' my condition

Predicts fez limits BS

I arrive and they arise

Transformed right before they eyes and into the sky

As ashes fall while the phoenix rise

Lead with example and do everything in life I see

A simple thing like riding a bike, we are alike

How is that? Enlighten me

There's so much fight in me

'Cause my superpower, it makes me different, there's light in me

Wait, how many obstacles I gotta break?

How many fights I gotta face?

Just to make you feel my fate

I shake, then I breakdown, yeah

But I take all the weight down

I'm a rising phoenix

I'll rise above you

I'm a rising phoenix

I'll rise above you

People make fun of what they don't understand

Look at me 'cause I'm different and can't do what they can

But belittle me you won't because I am what I am, I am amazing

A different pill in which your brain cannot cram

I'm different

Often inspired by pain

Inflicted by the inhumane

With hearts as black as the grain

My disability is silent

But my bottled up rage

Got me running from my dreams a hundred miles with one leg

So how dare you

Try to remind me

That I don't fit into your perception

How dare you define me

I'm beyond what you see as perfection

I'm a rising phoenix

I'll rise above you

I'm a rising phoenix

I'll rise above you
