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
