Lyrics
Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writings on the wall,
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall [x2]
I always said that I was gonna make it,
Now it's plain for everyone to see,
But this game I'm in don't take no prisoners,
Just casualties,
I know that everything is gonna change,
Even the friends I knew before may go,
But this dream is the life I've been searching for,
Started believing that I was the greatest,
My life was never gonna be the same,
Cause with the money came a different status,
That's when things change,
Now I'm too concerned with all the things I own,
Blinded by all the pretty girls I see,
I'm beginning to lose my integrity
Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writings on the wall,
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall
I never used to be a troublemaker,
Now I don't even wanna please the fans,
No autographs,
No interviews,
No pictures,
Endless demands,
Give into vices that was clearly wrong,
The type that seems to make me feel so right,
But some things you may find can take over your life,
Burnt all my bridges now I've run out of places,
And there's nowhere left for me to turn,
Been caught in comprimising situations,
I should have learnt,
From all those times I didn't walk away,
When I knew that it was best to go,
Is it too late to show you the shape of my heart,
Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writings on the wall,
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall
Now I know,
I made mistakes,
Think I don't care,
But you don't realise what this means to me,
So let me have,
Just one more chance,
I'm not the man I used to be,
Used to beeeeeeeeeee
Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writings on the wall,
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall [x4]

Worst year of my life, Im taking a beating like no other...

I will never forget this time of my life. I was a kid, about 9 or 10. My mum had a nervous break down and was admitted to a Psych hospital. This song just came out and it would play on our local radio station almost every night. We lived with my gran and she helped raise me. My mum was a single parent. When I hear this song, it flashes back to that very very dark time where I barely understood what was happening. I look back now and I am so incredibly proud of my mother. Years on and she has never relapsed, in fact - she came back so much harder! My rock and my everything. My gran is late - 6 years now. Life - as an adult myself, is incredibly difficult, I commend my mother for how she tackled life! Rise & Fall ONLY to rise again!
God bless you
Stay Strong❤
Wow, your story brought tears to my eyes. Stay strong brother/sister never make the same mistakes and hate the things that brings you no benefit and give value to every morning!!
So sweet this comment. I hope the best for you and your lovely mum ❤️
Wishing you and your mum all the best
I recall being a little girl in the early 2000's and driving around in the car with my mum blasting Craig David. Some of my most treasured memories...
Here in 2021 listening to this legend of a tune! Who's with me?! :D Update... Its 2022 now, who's still with me!? 👀
It's pretty addictive!
@@yehabon eee

❤️
🙏🏽
Power to you
@ There is no "legal" war.
I used to be his house keeper in London. Craig David is very humble guy. I can't believe it. Very polite and very appreciative.
Most people in drug recovery are, 1 of the 1st things you're taught in recovery is to be humble
Craig David is from my home city of Southampton would love to meet him
@@imahappycamper2022 You know alot about the subject I see ;)
@@urbnctrl Yes I'm a recovering addict myself and I also work in the field
@@imahappycamper2022 I am proud of you 🙏🏽💪🏾❤
This wasn't song, it was poetry to our ears.
2023 and we still going strong with craig’s songs🔥
Craig's songs? This is Dominic Miller's riff - and him and Sting already knocked it outta the park with 'Shape Of My Heart.' All Craig did, as all rappers do, is find a great riff and rap over it. He gets kudos though, because he got Sting's blessing.
@@freddybeer wtf you cryin about 😂😂😂
@@johndoesha9599 - Can't you read? This is NOT one of Craig's songs. This is Dominic Miller and Sting's song. They allowed Craig to rap over it. That's what I'm 'crying' about. Fucking internet.
👍👍👍
same borther same
Craig David songs never die
Same goes for Sting, even more
It’s true
Lol the one he made with big nasty is dead
timeless
Where is he now?
Life is really difficult. Thats why i come to listen to this good old songs when i fall and i rise to fight again. No giving up
Amen to that!
@@RuhDolu its true but life is not always bright. There are also dark days
You and sting best
the places are different but we have the same feeling
@@abdoulabdoul3358 for real jah man
XG thanks for re-introducing me to this classic
Still get goosebumps when I listen to this work of art❤
Takes me back when the world was normal! Damn!
alan1234595 100% agreed.
No 1 can take away the feeling that this music gives,i love old skool
The world never was normal :D
Taylorgang Queen it was never crazy like this
facts!
I remember my dad used to play this song in the car when I was little. Definitely brings back memories
Same
This is completely copied from khaled siddiques rise and fall
@@RoronoaZoro23706 lmao check the release date of the song
wow am I that old,I was almost finishing university when this song came out
Cool Dad 😮
Thanks XG for bringing me back here💙❤🐺
Glad I'm not the only one still listening to this definitely one of his best songs and one of the best songs to come out of the UK 😊
0% Drugs 0% Naked Women 0% Brag about money 100% Talent, emotions and skills Monsta x brought me here . Btw i love this song thanks to monsta x memeber
I really miss this kind of music :( Today all we see in videos is 85%porn 15%music) This reminds me of my childhood ♥
Detty Németh you are more than 100% right,didnt see this coming 😁
That brought back my "good old childhood", but thats life☺,it goes on
Detty Németh well said
U r quite right , good memories , good music never die !
Detty Németh 👍👍
Before so many today there was this legend! Definitely deserves his flowers!!
Craig David is a Legend 🇬🇧🏴❤️
2022 and still love that song 🥰
This isnt his song
@@RoronoaZoro23706 Its from Sting - Shape of my heart
idem
The best songs are the old ones for sure ❤️🥰
Same
It's crazy how people think Craig David is underrated, they have no idea how big he was in the early 2000s🔥🔥🔥
Personally, i don't think he's underrated. But some might think he is underrated because they never heard of him before.
People on KZhead think everything is underrated
How is that carzy? This song is literaly about that situation. Wtf
Yes! He was huge!
I didn't know that
Even if you like rap, rock, metal, house, trance, whatever, you know this is one of the greatest songs of all time!
This song is so deep, his lyrical content is just unbelievable ❤👏
I love this. Their voices together are bloody brilliant.
Lies again? Black Jesus
Excellent collaboration ) You’re right !😀
Yes..
❤❤❤
We will never hear such amazings songs again. So let’s appreciate those little diamonds a little more.
Music has sure changed but i think we make mistakes comparing older music with new music. I believe that if we learn to appreciate new music we could still enjoy it and see these newer artists' talents. Music is not dead. I still hear new music that sounds good
@@felixgichanga9109 80 per cent of new music they're songs are empty and everyone looks like the same. Not to all there's some good music but never will be like those years ago. Sorry for my bad english
@@i88387 I totally agree with you, back then music had content. Nowadays 90% is pure trash.
YOU RIGHT AKON (SMACK THAT)
I don't believe you when you say wont. But I understand that you mean that music is piss at best in these times. That's at least the popular music. If you search you'll find very good songs that get overlooked. It's just what's being fed in the media to the ppl. You have to chose what you listen. Great songs are being made still today, it's just not being highly pushed.
Shape of my heart ♥
The background is like "Shape of my heart", beautiful song.
It is shape of my heart.
Yadriel Ramírez García wrong , your singer is مروح
Yes, Shape of my heart with a hint of soul. Both wonderful songs.
I already make it hundred 100 like 😂❤
It is❤
Craig David voice are perfect for this song, mesh perfectly well with Sting. Gave me chills. The lyrics goes straight to my heart. It hit me different when it's been a long time since not listening to this beautiful composition.
Rise and fall + shape of my hearth=💖👏❤
Wow what the song 🔥🔥🔥🔥
When r&b was REAL!!
@Jezo timuri R Kelly?
This one has such 90s vibes I can't get over this kind of music....... you don't find such these days
fact!!!!
Now it’s just mumble rap 😭 the only one who is listening to them is fucking teenagers
I agree :(
it's 2002
90s vibes? it sounds like 00s af
I will forever love this song.
Old good days
Completely 🙌🏾
😊
My dad used to wake me and my sister up with this song when we were kids. Today I had a dream about him and came to listen to it again.
❤️🌹
🥰
Daaamnn 😊♥️
Funny like that, I used to wake up to this song just like you.
oh my god. i cant believe. same thing.. my dad always used to listen this song. he woke me up with this song. he died 3 years ago. now i’m sleeping with this song everyday with the wish not waking up for tomorrow
So it took me a decade or maybe more, and a musical career to really understand that Craig here was askin' for advice about the music industry and life from the more experienced Sting. And its all real talk and accurate these days.
thank you for this. I've always wanted to understand the lyrics beyond surface level, for years.
Wow, you're right. I always thought it was a strange collabo but now it makes perfect sense.
Word! I just realized that from reading your comment
Wenn du das Lied verstehst ❤
he borrowed stings shape of your heart melody,same thing with seven days
This is my favourite song of Craig David ❤
Time flies…i was a teenager when i first heard this song
so now with quarantine I get to sit down and remember all the good music xD
Double x hahha same
It really shows how times changed haha.... music was music back then
Me too 😢😢😢
Double x same when there was talents
Same and still dreaming in all the good old times and music xD
Craig David's music takes me back to my university years. We're from the same generation. He's one of my favorite singers and one of a very small % of singers with an angelic voice. His voice is extremely soothing, beautiful & angelic. His voice & songs always lift my spirits and soothes my anxiety. What a gem of a singer. AND he's so handsome!
Bonjour enchanté peut être qu'on mais de la même génération qui sait
This man knows the way to a girls heart ❤️
Craig David... You are and will forever be, one of the greatest R'n'B artists the world has ever seen. You should have reached greater heights but the real people that consumed your music know. One of the greatest.
I guess every man in life has a Rise and Fall situation!! Great composition by Craig David and Sting!!
one of the realist songs to ever come out .. man real music
Still an all time classic ❤
This song hit differently 🤭🔥
Shape of my heart is playing on the background. İ love this.
All time Craig David favourite. Thanks Craig David for this!!! Greetings from Kenya.

Thanks dad for making me listen to 00s R&B
Craig David has such a beautiful voice 🤩🤩👏👏
Congrats Craig David on the MBE... Legend, always and forever... Your music was my whole childhood and we never actually gave you the credit or flowers you really deserve. Your music is timeless.
