A song of hope and encouragement for those who live impoverished lives.
Stoneman wrote and performed everything on this song.

I just love to write and produce songs that inspire people to keep striving to reach their dreams. I love to see the underdog achieve things when the odds are all stacked against him. Positivity is reflective and contagious.

Rising up, rising
Oh.... Rising up, rising up
Haters say you'll never make it
Just because you're from the hood
Grab reality and change it
Man the truth is mighty good
We are more than conquerors, more than ghetto dwelling folk
We are strong because we stood the test of fire
We are reaching for the sky and don't listen to their lies
We believe we can do anything within our hearts desires
Oh.... Rising up rising up
Oh.... Rising up rising up
There is nothing you can't do
If you always keep believing
In your heart you know its true
Choose a dream and then a achieve it
Just because you're from the hood, it doesn't mean that you won't rise
To the top of anything that you pursue
Keep on striving everyday overcoming till they say
You are champion of everything and anything you do
Oh.... Rising up rising up
Oh.... Rising up rising up
One day at a time, fight for your life to be changed and your obstacles conquered.
Always on the grind, you must believe that the odds and results can be altered.
Haters always talking smack, just keep on winning while their flapping their yaps,
In the hood they say only strong folks survive, but the ones with faith keep rising to the highest high.
Keep rising to the top, don't let nothing in life ever defeat you.
You never will be stopped cause you already know nobody can beat you.
Just keep on pushing on, stay in the zone and give it all that you've got.
Keep trusting in yourself and the man up stairs, keep rising and you don't stop!
Oh.... Rising up rising up
Oh.... Rising up rising up
