[Chorus: Andra Day]
And I rise up
And I rise up
And I rise up
And I rise up
I rise up
[?]
I rise up

[Verse: Lil Wayne]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, and so I rise
The news on TV, I roll my eyes
The good and the bad, it's do or die
Like a snake with two heads saying "Blow out mines"
Lord knows I'm trying, I just hope I'm fine
If I live to see tomorrow, Lord you're too kind
And I know in due time it'll be the end of time
So if I buy some time that's some expensive time
Until my time is up I'm in the sky's above
My eyes may be closed but I'm alive enough
My eyes may be red, I seen a lot of bloods
Started from the bottom, now it's bottoms up
Got a couple questions, no response to one
That's live for who? And that's die for what?
I know I'm the guy that only God can judge
I'ma rise up til I rise above, yeah
Tunechi

[Chorus: Andra Day]
And I rise up (Tunechi)
And I rise up (Mula baby)
And I rise up
And I rise up
I rise up
[?]
I rise up

Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr., better known by his stage name Lil Wayne, grew up in the Hollygrove neighborhood of New Orleans, Louisiana.

At the age of nine, Lil Wayne joined Cash Money Records as the youngest member of the label, and half of the duo, The B.G.‘z, with B.G.. In 1997, Lil Wayne joined the group Hot Boys, which also included rappers Juvenile, B.G., and Young Turk. Lil Wayne gained most of his success with the group’s major selling album Guerrilla Warfare, released in 1999. He has been listed in the 2012 Guinness Book Of World Records for the record of Most US Hot 100 Hits By A Rap Artist with 64 hits between 1999 and 2010.

Wayne is famous for his command of slow, witty lines and metaphorical jokes. His discography includes a slew of successful mixtapes, including Dedication 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6; No Ceilings; and Da Drought 3. His albums consistently garner acclaim, with Tha Carter series all platinum hits. Tha Carter series has been a work of Wayne’s for 13 years and continues to grow with the fifth installment, Tha Carter V released in 2018 (however, it was initially supposed to be released in late 2014). Wayne keeps a regular recording schedule, with studio booths in his tour bus, home, and following him everywhere.
