Rise

SilentLaugh

I'm not a dog you can kick around

and expect to stay down

I ain't no hound

straight outa the pound

where the only sound 

is snarlin' and barkin'

I bet you think

your pretty slick

Thinkin' im home sick

but im strong and healthy

I ain't gonna stay down

Im gonna rise

and take the prize

Im gonna break 

these family ties

and Im gonna fly 

into the sky

for the first time
