Here For It
Rising Above: Reggie Charles' Anthem of Resilience and Triumph
Lyrics
Yeah man
Expression of agreement or affirmation.
Ha
A casual sound, possibly expressing amusement or acknowledgment.
Yo yo give me five on the black hand side I ain't a racist
Request for a friendly gesture, emphasizing a non-racist stance.
But cops want us all to die they hunt n' chase us
Commentary on the negative relationship between the speaker's community and law enforcement.
Black people stayin' alive they can't contain us
Empowerment of the black community, defying attempts to suppress.
Wishing we would fall we rise to the occasion
Overcoming challenges and rising above expectations.
How he come up with all these vibes I can't explain it
Recognition of the artist's creative process, acknowledging inexplicable inspiration.
Waitin' on my stock to rise I'm being patient
Anticipation for personal success, demonstrating patience.
I'm a leave a mark no lie you can't erase it
Commitment to leaving a lasting impact that cannot be erased.
Most my favourites dead or dying such a shame shit
Reflection on the loss of favorite figures, expressing disappointment.
Lame shit , across the board I hear the same shit
Critique of generic content across various platforms.
Channelin' the greats remotely here to change shit
Alignment with influential figures, aspiring to bring about change.
I ain't complainin' too long I've been complacent
Acknowledgment of a period of contentment but expressing a desire for more.
Lookin' at em' like where my throne and crown? Come place it
Seeking recognition and questioning the absence of deserved status.
On the top of my head, cause off the top of my head
Asserting dominance and uniqueness in creativity.
Can't think of anybody who can top what I said
Confidence in the originality and impact of the speaker's words.
They like don't exaggerate you soundin' like some fake shit
Addressing skepticism about the speaker's authenticity.
But just exasperated when surrounded by some greatness yeah
Feeling overwhelmed in the presence of greatness.
Huh, I'm hear for it
Affirmation of enthusiasm and readiness for success.
I'm here
Reiteration of presence and readiness for opportunities.
And then they'll say top five top ten you're not him
Acknowledging potential criticism of not being a top-ranking figure.
Well I'm just grateful I can live a life without sin
Expressing gratitude for a life without significant wrongdoing.
Wasn't always the case, thank God I never caught one
Reflecting on a past where mistakes were avoided and blessings were recognized.
You know to count your blessings when you been where I've been
Highlighting the importance of gratitude during challenging times.
Made it out unscathed, I remain unchained, untamed
Emphasizing resilience and maintaining personal freedom.
Yo' baddest bitch ain't as thick as my skin
Asserting superiority, possibly in a metaphorical sense.
I tell my fam let's stick together through thick and thin
Advocating for unity within the family through thick and thin.
Cause for real everybody gon' win when I win
Belief that success for one is success for all.
And that goes both ways, can't forget those days
Recognition of past struggles and the collective nature of success.
When I would pay for my mistakes still in debt no wage
Acknowledgment of past mistakes and ongoing challenges.
Nowadays people tell me you don't look your age
Comments on a youthful appearance despite life experiences.
Man I just count my lucky stars I ain't took no strays
Gratitude for avoiding major setbacks or tragedies.
Cause some cats I grew up with, or grew up by
Observing the struggles of others from the same background.
Never made it out the gutter still got too much pride
Highlighting the persistence of pride in difficult circumstances.
Some fell, failed, some fried
Acknowledging various outcomes for individuals from similar backgrounds.
And others tried to play tuff guys who just died, but me
Personal resilience and overcoming challenges.
Huh, I'm here for it
Reiteration of readiness and enthusiasm for success.
I'm here yeah
Confirmation of presence and preparedness for opportunities.
We fina come up, elevate na mean,
Expression of determination to achieve success and elevate.
Flourish, take it to the next level na mean
Encouragement to thrive and progress to the next level.
Yeah
Confirmation of readiness and anticipation for positive developments.
I'm here for it
Reiteration of enthusiasm and readiness for success.
