The Rise
Futuristic Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In my way, get away from my motherfucking rise
Said I'd never get it, that's a motherfucking lie
See me 'bout to rise, no one can tell me...
In my way, get away, from my motherfucking rise
You see me coming up and no one can tell me "no"
Perfect timing, my rhyming so sick could make them vomit
I mean these lines just like movies, you hear it multiple times
And gotta rewind it to find what the fuck he's tryna remind you
Is there a message or something deeper inside it
Maybe he spitting simple and hopes that you can recite it
I'm grinding, no nine to five, I'm working eyelid to eyelid
Now that's open to close, I travel more than a pilot
I been at it, been an addict since I discovered this rapping
I subtracted any wack shit then put it out to the masses
I been snapping, got the tracks to make the kids jump on they mattress
And wanna act just like Zach, they got sauce on all they snappers
I'm tired of moving backwards, it's time that I got it cracking
A picture is worth a thousand words so I don't need a caption
WTF Gang, I'm the captain
They said, I'd never do it, then I made it happen
Young, real nigga in the making
Love me and I know you gon' hate it
Moving up, a nigga steady chasing
I don't really know just why niggas hating
Cause everything you see is on me, on me
And I never tell a lie, if it's really on me, on me
Young nigga independent
I don't like nobody in my fucking buisness
Yo, nobody telling me "no", I did this shit on my own
Working since I was a kid, holy shit, now I'm grown
Put me in the rolling stones
Boy, I done travled the globe, get a mic, killing shows, I can't wait to get back on the road
The life that I chose, don't know how to act when I'm home
People won't leave me alone, they all with me now
Where the fuck was you then? When I was trying to be heard
I been putting it down
I roll with the squad, the one's who belived in me first
We running the town
Every rapper around is begging your boy for a verse everytime that I'm out
I'm acting like Drake cause my behavior is the worst
My bandwagon is been full, I'm popping out, that's Crisco
That girl used to act like a bitch, now I give her dick
No lip though, I don't kiss hoes, that shit's gross
My hits go and they know that
Now every moment is a memory
They want pictures now, that's Kodak
I don't hold back, I'm all-in
My team building on small wins
I'm a stand-up guy so why would I tryna help a nigga tryna crawl in
I see it on they face, they look surprised
They want a slice of the pie, but wasn't with me for the rise
The lyrics to the verse of Futuristic's song The Rise demonstrate his confidence and dedication to his music career, despite others doubting him in the past. He asserts that those who thought he could never make it were wrong and that he is now on the rise, determined to succeed. He raps about the hard work and commitment it has taken to get to this point and proclaims that no one can stop him now.
The second verse continues this theme of dedication and persistence. Futuristic talks about his independent attitude and the fact that he doesn't need others to be involved in his business. He recounts the obstacles he has overcome, such as people not believing in him or acting like they didn't know him. Despite this, he has continued to work hard, build his team, and gain success through the power of his music.
The chorus reiterates the fact that he is on the rise and no one can hold him back. He has come too far and worked too hard to be stopped now. The entire song is a celebration of his journey to success and an inspirational message to his fans to never give up on their own pursuits.
