Kimo Sounds - Rise Slow

Rise slow
Rise slow

No, no, no, no one saw the nights I held my ground
No one heard me when I made no sound
I didn't need the light to find my way
I just kept moving through the dark each day
Not fast, not loud, not for the crowd, just real, just deep, just mine to keep
I rise slow

I rise slow, but I rise strong
Every scar I carry made me more
I rise slow, but I rise strong
Took the time it took, now I belong
I rise slow
I rise slow

They wanted fire, I gave them roots
They wanted shortcuts, I gave them truth
I fell more times than I care to say
But every fall it showed me where to stay
Not fast, not loud, not for the crowd, just real, just deep, just mine to keep
I rise slow

I rise slow, but I rise strong
Every scar I carry made me more
I rise slow, but I rise strong
Took the time it took, now I belong
I rise slow
I rise slow

The ones who rise fast
For the same reason
The ones who rise slow
Are built to stay

I rise slow, but I rise strong
Every scar I carry made me more
I rise slow, but I rise strong
Took the time it took
I belong
I belong
I belong
I belong
I belong
Rise slow
Still rising
Rise slow
Still here
