Rise up ft Aakash Gandhi
Intro:
We all pass through pain, we all bleed differently
I know sometimes
Life can be hard
Leaving you so unsure
I know sometimes
You feel like throwing in the towel
But giving up shouldn’t be an option
Verse 1:
Yo, I don’t know your story but I can guess that I can relate
I’ve been through rough times and I know with this you can resonate
I know what it means to have to go through certain circumstances
Through the pain, through the fears and yet still take the chances
I know how it feels to have your back stuck up against the wall
I know how hard it is to rise up after a mighty fall
Through it all, still I rise, look at me I’m standing tall
Dry your tears, face your fears, starting now please don’t give up
Speech:
No matter how hard life hits
You owe it to yourself to be strong
No circumstance, no situation
Should be worth killing yourself for
Verse 2:
So… drop that gun, dump those pills, put away negative thoughts
Understand that it’s a phase, you must go through certain roughs
To be great, to be made, to experience, to succeed
To be heard, to be seen, to be felt you must proceed
Through it all, stand up tall, raise your head above the waters
Be refined, redefine all those dreams and past failures
Be persistent, push forward, keep moving and don’t give up
Stand your ground, face your fears, make sure they don’t hinder you
Have some faith, find your strength, know that you will overcome
The pain you dread and you feel is only meant to strengthen you
It won’t be long before you know everything it’s teaching you
You’ll be tough and be bold to take up other challenges
And when it’s done, you’ll look back and realize how far you’ve come (2x)
Speech:
Listen every success story
has a foundation of faith, pain, frustration and regrets
Pain is momentary — just temporary
Don’t dwell too long in your broken state
Rise Up (4x)
Hook:
Let’s give the haters something to talk about
Let’s give the haters something to talk about
Let’s give the haters something to talk about
Let’s give the haters something to talk about
Let’s give the haters something to talk about (hey)
Let’s give the haters something to talk about (hey)
Let’s give the haters something to talk about (hey)
Yo, rise up!
Written and Performed by Viano Dee
Instrumental: The Rising by Aakash Gandhi (88keystoEuphoria)
Mixed: Semshak
About Rise Up (Rap Infused Spoken Word Poetry)
Rise up is a rap infused spoken word poetry encouraging anyone who is being weighed down by life’s troubles to hold on. It’s a reminder that pain is phase that will pass and it’s purpose is to strengthen us.
Giving up shouldn’t be an option, we must find the strength to Rise up. We may not like pain when it comes but when it’s done, we’ll look back and realize how far we’ve come — and then we’ll be grateful.
The message was inspired by Aakash Gandhi’s instrumental titled The Rising. I heard it, fell in love with it then decided to write lyrics to it and so became the birth of Rise Up. I hope you find it inspiring.

“When you feel like you are at the end of the rope, tie a knot and hang on.” This quote resonates with me very well and your post about rising up is very motivational. Storms in life will come and go. It is only a way to teach us to be strong and resilient.

Very thought-provoking piece. Life will always throw obstacles but it is our duty to weather and rise against them with faith and fortitude.
Your post inspires me to believe and persevere. Life can be very hard and live us shaken, quitting is definitely not an option.
You are right, pain is temporary. It is difficult to see that in the moment, but eventually it does pass and helps us in the next phase of our life.
this this post came at the most perfect time with the passing of Kobe. Pain in temporary. It’s how we rise above it.
I love the lyrics and how it gives the motivation and inspiration to rise up from whatever it is you’re going through right now. Gives a nice reminder that it will pass, just keep moving forward.
