#riseup
Some people wait
For motivation.
They wait for the perfect moment.
The perfect mood.
The perfect opportunity.
But winners don’t wait.
They move
Even when the spark feels small.
Because deep down
They know something important.
Motivation fades.
But purpose
Burns.
There’s a fire inside you
That no doubt can put out.
It’s the voice that whispers
“Try again.”
The feeling that tells you
“You’re meant for more.”
The quiet belief
That refuses to die
Even after failure.
Protect that fire.
Feed it with effort.
Guard it with discipline.
Grow it with patience.
Because one day
That small flame
Will become a wildfire
The world can’t ignore.

You say you’re tired.
Good.
That means you’ve been trying.
You say it’s hard.
Good.
That means it matters.
Nothing powerful
Comes wrapped in comfort.
Diamonds don’t form in peace.
They form under pressure.
And so do you.
Stop waiting for the perfect moment.
The perfect mood.
The perfect support system.
Perfection is a lie
That keeps people average.
You don’t need more time.
You need more discipline.
You don’t need more talent.
You need more consistency.
Because the truth is
Somebody less talented than you
Is winning
Simply because
They refused to stop.
Let that sink in.
Every excuse you repeat
Builds a wall.
Every action you take
Builds a door.
So today
Choose to build doors.
Choose to outwork your doubt.
Choose to outlast your fear.
Choose to become someone
Your old self wouldn’t recognize.
You weren’t made to fold.
You were made to rise.
And if nobody believes it yet
Believe it yourself.

Death is an old family friend of mine and Life is on speed dial.
I won't tell which is witch.
A life of a writer's life is soulfully expensive just ask the parents.
So life of a reporter is platonic relationships and actual good stories not the obtuse stories put on your desk.
So rebel! Start a revolution! Rise up and live your best lives! Make people wish they were you when they can't!

If the gold can still shine , even after forged and burnt,
why can't I?
If the sun can still shine, even under immense pressure,
why can't I?
If the star can still shine, even after untold centuries,
why can't I?
If you can still shine , even after leaving me broken,
why can't I?

Eye look around me and all (eye) see is a brainwashed humanity...
when did we become these creatures
forgotten all of what the universe teaches?
behave little sheep lest you fall out of line
imprisoned enslaved these are the times
to rise up
to rise up to the wakeup call
that sleeps within us all

So take my hand and I'll help you rise again

I know how it feels to lie awake at night thinking about everything wrong with me
My stomach's not flat enough,
I have love handles and thick thighs
I **** up everything I do or touch
Sometimes I think to myself would the world be better off without me?
But then the sun rises and shines across my face
The warmth awakening my senses
And I realize
The sun will always rise
And so will I

I was in the search
Of high hopes and fancy
Then I found you
In a somber chasm
And I let my self fall
To seek in too deep
To have a shelter
And to drown with your love
For a time
The emptiness was filled
A leap of joy
Was in the faith's hands
But the current
Was waving too strong
Your love, your love
I still tried to hold
But the water's through me
Choked by this illusory
While you watched me in a distant
I cried with the sea
All these concepts
Had deteriorated my being
But I had to search the air
To right back up
And to keep me breathin'
I found my amnesty
In the high ruins
And I swear an oath
That I will never ever
Love that would lead me to death

I hear the cries around
The battles in the crowd
The bullets Raining down
The blood that's on the ground
The fear all around
The crying in the crowd
It's all coming down
Our fates are falling to the ground
So I'm running all around
I'm looking in the crowd
'cause I'm falling down
I need to find you before I hit the ground
I've been searching all around
Running through the crowds
As the world's been falling down
I won't let us hit the ground
The wars all around
Blood coming from the crowd
The World is coming down
And you have been falling down
But we won't hit the ground
We've been through his before
And we can do it again
It may be our blood on the ground
But we can take it now
As the world falls down
And we have broken down
But we will never touch the ground

I'm alone
I've lost everything I had
I've lost my voice
I've lost my fight
I've lost you
The gun shots that roared
The blood covering my pride
The scars that are ripped open
You did this to me
Outcast, freak, waist,
Day after day you say it's me but,
You are the one who broke me
Who stole the last string of hope from me
So here I am sitting all alone
Looking at my phone memories of better days
But where they really better
Or was it just because we were together
But now these pieces are broken forever
And I never want them back together
I'm taking back my life
My life, will, fight,
And now I see a new light
weak, insecure, broken, scared
They say poison corrupts you
Look at what you have done to me
You've taken every part of me and changed it
Saying I would never make it
I'm taking my bags and leaving
I'm taking my hope with me
So if being alone lets me be me
So be it.

Bold like a lion,
strong and brave.
I'm not defiant,
know my name.
Proud like a lion,
showing might,
No turning back now,
I will fight.
Roar like a lion.
Hunt your prey.
Walk like a titan.
Rule the day.
Live like a lion.
Know your place.
Keep your head high an'
show your grace.
Sleep like a lion,
with your pride.
Protect your region.
None shall die.
Fail like a lion.
tail down low.
But rise like a king.
All will know.

I stayed in bed today
Because I was scared
of how other people
would see me.
I fear how the
world sees me.
I want to be seen
For who I am
And who I want to be,
Not who I am told to be.
That is no life
Worth living.
Our parents are
There to guide us
Not dictate us
And neglect our needs.
So why do they act like
we're dangerous to ourselves?
We may not always know
Exactly who we are, but
They don't always know either.
What does age have to do with it?
Refuse to be
Someone you're not.
Stand up to false reality!
Stand up for your beliefs!
Be who you are and step into the
shoes you were meant to fill!

Are you down on your luck?
short on change?
no place to go?
caught in the rain?
Just **** it up & don't complain.
you're on your own - that's capitalism!
if you're poor you
deserve what you are
cause they're rich for a reason
the things they believe in
social darwinism its
survival of the fittest its
living for yourself dont
mess with no one else
and if you don't make it
then you just couldn't take it
and you don't deserve to live anyway...
do you need an out ?
is there no way in?
are you just waiting
for your life to begin?
Well clearly you don't deserve to win.
They won't help - that's capitalism!
The people who make it
clearly won't break it
cause they have the smarts
to succeed in the art of money.
So give'm all the funds
watch it trickle down and run.
It's a free market, so
let it loose, watch it go.
If there's monopoly
they want you to let it be
its only a kids game to them. . .
no pain no gain.
but if it's not their pain
their result's the same.
but what have we gained?
Is life a dead end
in the land of the free?
ruled by the rich-
a bureaucracy.
No end in sight that we can see.
Our legacy- is capitalism.

When the pressure becomes too tough...
When the nights grow colder...
When all else fails...
When you feel like crying...
When you think its all for naught...
When you think its over...
When the fight is out...
When you feel like quitting... Don't.

This is a call to Arms
The time for action is now.
Our government is preparing for War
They're building walls and cutting ties
to conquer us they must divide
us from ourselves and from our world
This is a call to Arms
The time for Action is now
The board is set, and we, the Pawns, are all in our place, facing an enemy we are told to defeat,
though they appear to be identical to you and me.
This is a Call to Arms
The time for action is now
We must revolt
Lest we be sacrificed to Kings
To Queens, to Bishops
To the knights of the realm and the castles they call home.
This is a call to Arms
The time for action is now
We must band together to be heard
We will not be cannon fodder
For the frontlines of a culture War
This is a Call to Arms
The time for action is now.
Defeat looms ever closer
The Reckoning draws nigh
Will you stand and deliver
Or will you bow down and submit?
Will you face the coming adversity,
or brave the consequences
should you turn your back to it?
This is a call to arms
They've taken land and sea and air,
Poisoned them to **** us,
and then billed us for the repair.
The enemy surrounds us,
Threatening life and limb and freedom.
Demanding fealty and obedience.
Demanding tribute for the war chest,
And soldiers for the ranks,
Demanding that we pay the cost while they set price.
They want us broken, not just beaten
Only unconditional surrender will suffice
This is a call to Arms
The time for action is now
To chant the castles down
To fortify the streets
Against the tyranny and the hate,
Against powers of subjugation,
Against the evils of the world
now

Some would call it a back stab,
I just call it a backtrack,
Every path that was once unseen,
Is now unearthed right in front of me,
I could say that I'm wrong,
I haven't always been strong,
But in my weakness,
I always bounce back like a reflex,
A metaphor of burning ashes giving birth to a Phoenix?,
But I'm still sleeping,
The giant still grows,
Nearly 24 and not a clue of where my future is going,
2 years, countless hours, spilling out my heart,
A piece of me is out there idle,
Waiting for a spark,
Somebody to notice,
But everybody has their own ideas, opinions and motives,
Square one wouldn't scare me if I had pushed so much,
Maybe I'll be proud if I suffer enough...

The ones who want to sing don't know how
The ones who need money most can't right now
Because the kids aren't alright
And the government is tight
And nobody is saying what they think aloud

Dear inspiration,
In times of being broken you showed me light.
In times of my true self being woken you taught me wrong from right.
You smiled and laughed with me.
You showed me everything has a price but friendship is free.
I was a strange thing.
A skinny little voiceless soul left tingling.
The world told me who to be.
They took away every last piece of me.
I let them judge when the shouldn't.
I refused stand when I couldn't.
It started with a simple common ground. Then I fell in love with you being around. A criticized teen.
A nightmare waiting to be seen.
You helped me stand.
You gave out a lending hand.
For that I say thank you.
And I'm in debt for everything you do.

just like a rainbow cast over stormy seas,
you shined your light and it just surrounded me,
illuminating life's pure beauty,
earth and seas, and stones and trees, and birds and bees,
i stumbled bumbled right off your buzz,
your honey kiss, sweet sticky lips cant get enough,
and i know im not falling in love,
i dont fall down,
not when you're around,
im rising up up up,
just like a light inside of crystal caves,
the more i watch you the more the darkness fades,
and i let your sweet voice lead the way,
it leaves me dazed for days,
maybe its infatuation,
caused by recent separation,
my situation's even testin my own patience,
now im sittin waitin,
for some kind of new creation,
im blamin' fate and, i find im hatin',
way too much and way too often,
need new touch, escape this coffin,
my heart is stoppin, and surely droppin
i miss your fresh perspective,
smart and consciously selective,
perfectly hectic,
thats how i expect it,
and i know im not falling in love,
i dont fall down,
not when you're around,
im rising up

The tides of time are timid, slow and still
The people lack desire, passion and will
The people are in boxes and all think quite the same
The fates of people are decided through a twisted game
The people all are happy with the way things seem,
After all, their struggle is living the American Dream
Although the dream is pleasant and it may feel right
The people begin to stir, as if on a cold, dark night
The mind may stir if only to shiver from the breeze,
It keeps a person stirring, unable to sleep with ease
With the subtlety of the breeze the thought will shift,
As the people awaken they’ll be free to find their gift
The tides of time have begun to churn
The people are waking and begin to learn
They start to think free and stretch their mind
They are searching for answers of their own kind.
They work not for themselves, but strive to help the whole
A world of people living together, each playing their own role
Each person working together despite gender, traits or race
Just people helping people to make the world a better place
The gusts of change are roaring, tearing through the plains
The people wake up and are furious to find themselves in chains
They yell and shout in anger for their captors to set them free
They almost give up hope until they realize they hold the key
They break their chains and free their minds to wander and explore
Each person setting out to discover what they love down to the core
