[Intro — spoken, low and focused] Every day is a choice. And you chose to be here. That already says something. Let’s work. [Verse 1] Sun ain’t even up but I’m already moving Feet on the floor before the world starts proving That the grind is real and the real don’t stop I been at the bottom now I’m climbing to the top Not for clout not for the crowd not for the noise For the feeling deep inside that never destroys The version of me that shows up every single day That’s the one I’m building every time I play [Pre-Chorus] Nobody clocks in for me Nobody punches my card The only person responsible For how far I go is me and God [Chorus] Every day I rise Every day I grind Every day I sharpen what I leave behind Every day a choice Every day a chance Every day I move like this is my last dance Every day Every day Every day I rise [Verse 2] Third set in and my body’s talking back But I don’t negotiate with tired — that’s a fact Push through the wall find the second wind Find the version of yourself hiding deep within Dribble left crossover right pull up mid Feel the ball release and feel the rim respond Sweat in my eyes but my vision’s still clear Because everything I want is on the other side of here [Pre-Chorus] Nobody clocks in for me Nobody punches my card The only person responsible For how far I go is me and God [Chorus] Every day I rise Every day I grind Every day I sharpen what I leave behind Every day a choice Every day a chance Every day I move like this is my last dance Every day Every day Every day I rise [Bridge] You think champions wake up ready You think they don’t doubt You think they don’t have mornings Where they want to sit it out They do They just show up anyway And the showing up is the whole thing The showing up is everything [Verse 3] Last lap last set last shot of the day Make it count make it clean make it mean something Make it the shot you’ll remember when the lights come on When the crowd gets loud and you’ve been here all along This is not a workout this is who you are This is not a session this is building your star Every rep every drill every bead of sweat Is a deposit on a debt the game hasn’t called yet [Extended Chorus] Every day I rise Every day I grind Every day I sharpen what I leave behind Every day a choice Every day a chance Every day I move like this is my last dance Every day Every day Every day I rise Rise Rise Rise [Outro — spoken fading out] You showed up. That was the hardest part. Everything else is just work. And work is what you do. Every. Single. Day.
