[Chorus: GAWNE]
People die tryna get close
Who’s willing to climb until they let go?
One in a million, finna really blow
The rest of y’all just fading, like an echo
Demons in my head make me feel alone
I see ghosts when I’m sleepin', they fiend for my soul
But hell no, I’m not leavin', I’m reachin' my goal
Keep on climbin' that mountain, I’ll rise to the top on my own

[Verse 1: GAWNE]
Rise to the top by my own means wit' the homies outta OP
Low-key, workin’ so hard that I don’t sleep
For weeks, probably finna die 'fore I make it to the top
Gotta stop, call the police, OC
I’m about to fully go at the G.O.A.T.​
When I go for the gold trophy like Kobe (Woo!)
I am as good as it gets, put in the work, blood and the sweat
Stuck out my neck for the respect, bitch, I won’t ever relent
Oh no-no-no-no-no, never again will I fall
On a stairway to heaven, I’m climbing again
As I rise to the top from the bottom, I went from a bottomless pit
To the top of the mountain, I’m on the ascent, uh (Woo!)
(People die tryna—)
—Get close to that mountain top
But- (Who’s willing to climb until they—)
—Let go and you’re fallin’ off?
Goin' down in flames like a Molotov, but I swear to God
There’s no touchin’ the rhymes, one-of-a-kind
Just what am I gonna be? Uh, stuck in a line
Wit' the pen on mine? Fuck it, get tough and I grind
As I climb to the top when I clutch and I rise
To the side of the cliff, with the summit in sight
Such heights, but I’m never gonna plummet in my life
'Til I’m touchin’ the sky and I’m up so high
On the top- just me, myself and I!
Rise, I just rise, I just get back up, and I climb!
Once upon a time, there was a kid that was afraid
But fuckin', ayy, he overcame his mental state
Like MMA, to dominate
The whole fuckin’ game as my knuckles rage, and
I punch the page, with my touch of greatness!
A lot of people thinkin’ I was gonna be a quitter, I admit it
But I got up and I made it to the finish
Now I’m winnin’, 'bout to make a fuckin’ milli’ in the business
You could witness everything I’m 'bout to do when I get it
When I get it, I’ma spend it like a motherfucker demented
A medic’s anesthetic couldn’t even stop where I’m headin’
When I been headin’ for the pennant
Wit' a whole fuckin’ lot of momentum
(Who’s willin' to climb until they— let go and I—)
Not a steady climb, but never mind, it has been a ride
I’ll either fall and meet my demise
Or be idolized when I’m dead inside
I resurrect, and then I rise! (Woo!)
[Chorus: GAWNE]
People die tryna get close
Who’s willing to climb until they let go?
One in a million, finna really blow
The rest of y’all just fading, like an echo
Demons in my head make me feel alone
I see ghosts when I’m sleepin', they fiend for my soul
But hell no, I’m not leavin', I’m reachin' my goal
Keep on climbin' that mountain, I’ll rise to the top on my own

[Verse 2: CHVSE]
Rise to the top 'cause I know that I got passion
Overlappin' the flows that I got mastered
Just imagine a kid who ain’t never had shit
But he found his pen, then he put practice
To the page, full of rage, and he seen blackness
Blacked-out from the liquor, when he felt sadness
Lookin' back at my past, it was fantastic
'Cause I threw away drugs, and relapsed straight back to my rap shit, uh
The party is lame, yeah, look (Yeah, ah)
A part of my brain (Ooh, yeah)
Thinks I’m the devil, like right in the flame (Yeah, yeah)
Tell me to rap and I’m jottin' my brain (Yeah, yeah)
Shit is so vibrant, like caught in a game (Yeah, yeah)
Fighting bronchitis, I’m coughin' in pain (Yeah, yeah)
Luke is a beast, and Crypt is a god (Yeah, yo, yeah)
But I’m not a chopper, so pardon my aim
'Cause I’ll shoot and miss, sorry Luke if I ruined this
But we could spit with Crypt and that'd reduce the risk
Of me soundin' like a douche when I do this shit
Because I’m just a brick in the wall (Yeah)
Buildin' my name 'til it falls (Yeah)
I can feel it in my gut, yeah, like it's a kick in the balls! Ayy
I snap on the track 'cause I know that I'm different
I'm not in a box but my talent is gifted
So help me, please tell me that this is God-given (Ayy)
'Cause I got some demons tho got bad intentions
I know that my life is on the line again
So God help me, can you tell me how to find a friend?
I’m feelin' lonely 'cause I’m only here to rise it up
And fake homies who control me, I'ma line 'em up!
[Chorus: GAWNE]
People die tryna get close
Who’s willing to climb until they let go?
One in a million, finna really blow
The rest of y’all just fading, like an echo
Demons in my head make me feel alone
I see ghosts when I’m sleepin', they fiend for my soul
But hell no, I’m not leavin', I’m reachin' my goal
Keep on climbin' that mountain, I’ll rise to the top on my own

[Verse 3: Crypt]
Rise to the top (Ooh)
Like I'm the cream of the crop, king of hip hop (Huh)
What I'm gonna be is not feasible to y'all
'Cause I've been cursed with the curse to curse any vermin
That's lurkin', I point 'em out, call me a cursor
I'll steady murder any beat you've heard of
Any sheep, I'll hurt 'em, cause I'm a beast of burden (Do-do-do-do)
And I'm sick and tired of being underrated (Yeah)
People think I'm lame just because I ain't famous (Huh?)
But I'm much more than a little fuck boy
Livin' in the cut, boy, runnin' out of luck, boy ([?])
Motherfucker, I'm what's up, boy ([?]), wit' a tough ploy
Gonna blow up, boy, when I come up, get fucked, boy ([?])
Like a fuck toy, get wiped like a busboy
End of my lines are tight— (—Hut hut hut hut—), boy
You don't ever really wanna get in my way
I'ma make sure you never forget what I say
I've done made it to the top, and here I'll stay
Wardin' off all you bitches with the rhymes I lay
And I don't usually hold grudges
But it's personal, all you bitches prayin' that I'd fall
You went and fucked it up for y'all
You mad I don't rap with swag (Woo)
Well, that's too bad, 'cause I passed your ass (Woo)
With my new raps, I mastered the craft (Woo)
Of a dude that can out-rap you hacks (Woo)
'Cause I'm passionate, passin' this class
With a masters in classic hits ([?])
Bitch, I'm not havin' this shit talk from a dick
Who's raps sound like accidents (Ha)
Funny how I'm rappin' with a cap
But I don't have one
I'm rising to the top, I'll never stop
I'm havin' mad fun, you don't wanna do this
You know I'm the truest, I'll ruin your life
With some rhymes in my music
(Yeah) Just know
[Chorus: GAWNE]
People die tryna get close
Who’s willing to climb until they let go?
One in a million, finna really blow
The rest of y’all just fading, like an echo
Demons in my head make me feel alone
I see ghosts when I’m sleepin', they fiend for my soul
But hell no, I’m not leavin', I’m reachin' my goal
Keep on climbin' that mountain, I’ll rise to the top on my own

[Outro: GAWNE]
Rise to the top on my own
