Rise Above

Lyrics

[Hook] You need a hug, sometimes water's thicker than blood I just hope that you rise above Meet someone then you fall in love You need a hug, sometimes water's thicker than blood I just hope that you rise above Meet someone then you fall in love You need a hug, sometimes water's thicker than blood I just hope that you rise above Meet someone then you fall in love You need a hug, sometimes water's thicker than blood All those problems you rise above Meet someone then you fall in love [Verse 1] Imma tell you about the gyal Marianne Age 13 she was linking man She loves shoes and bare name brand Had fake hair and had fake tan Mother and father don't give a damn Sent her to country, live with her nan All on road, where she loves to hang Ain't got a future, ain't got a plan Then it gets sad She had a yute that ain't got a dad Look how quick she turned to a slag She looks ran through, oh what a hag Looked at the sky and she asked, "Why?" Whole heap of water fall from her eye Why her pickney won't stop cry? She just feels like she wants to die [Hook] You need a hug, sometimes water's thicker than blood I just hope that you rise above Meet someone then you fall in love You need a hug, sometimes water's thicker than blood All those problems you rise above Meet someone then you fall in love [Verse 2] Imma tell you about the guy named George Whole heap of problems he used to cause Punch up people, kick down doors He did business, didn't care 'bout laws He used to thief and rob from stores Stabbed up people, didn't even pause Had one strap that he kept indoors Screw up his face and take what's yours Didn't think twice, now he's in jail serving life Can't see his children can't see his wife He can't smile 'cah he know it ain't nice Everyting done, ain't getting out till he's 51 He can't smoke and he can't bun Nowhere to run when justice come [Hook] You need a hug, sometimes water's thicker than blood I just hope that you rise above Meet someone then you fall in love You need a hug, sometimes water's thicker than blood All those problems you rise above Meet someone then you fall in love [Verse 3] We all make mistakes Don't make your life turn to a waste Don't roll round with a gun in your waist Don't bring your family shame and disgrace Life in jail, that's a serious ting Can't drop soap on badman's wing Man all hang themself with string Screw lick your head till your ears start ring Hey dere girl, don't follow dem and act like Skatell One bag a man will make your life hell I just hope that it all goes well Act like a princess, act like a queen Don't make a nightmare out of a dream Learn how to cook, gotta learn how to clean Gotta stay fresh, have good hygiene [Hook] You need a hug, sometimes water's thicker than blood I just hope that you rise above Meet someone then you fall in love You need a hug, sometimes water's thicker than blood All those problems you rise above Meet someone then you fall in love
