Still i rise

by Wale Andrew


It’s a long ride in a short time She attacked me in my prime When I should be celebrated I was set up and humiliated I was carefree thinking she’s harmless Only to fall in a pit that is bottomless She desired to forcefully have her way Using even emotional blackmail to slay All I could see was a dead end But God saved the day & gave me friends Devil had pinned me, trying to make me his own Until I presented my evidences and won Though shattered by her lies, still I rise Wrestled against principalities, still I rise Is not just a physical war, Still I rise The righteous may fall, still I rise Been through spiritual bankruptcy, still I rise Experienced emotional downturn, still I rise Tell the devil he has tried, but still I rise Don’t go down looking for me, because still I rise
