jah huey - rise lyrics
[verse 1]
just fighting for tomorrow
tryna make sense in this world full of sorrow
tryna make cents, maybe i can hit the lotto
lookin’ for sobriety in a bottle of moscato
tryna speak to ya in the simplest way that i know
that’s why i scribble rhymes on the notepad of my phone
n-gg-s always talking like they got it
brotha please stop it
i’m tryna make a mill before i drop this
not really into benz’s with the benefits
walking through my hood
and i’m treated like an immigrant
admitted it
sometimes i feel alienated
like i don’t know what’s what
please correct if mistaken
but i’m a—
human being just as much as the next n-gg-
but back to the premature checks and figures
what am i gonna tell my little boy when he ask me
was this world meant for me?
yo, will the piggies blast me?
how can i look him in his cocoa b-tter face
look him in the eyes and tell him that it’s gonna be okay?
and i wanna fly from state to state
and use my rhymes in time to decrease crime rates
but wait man—
these n-gg-s too fake man
these n-gg-s too fake
i take the motherf-ckin’ cake! (x2)
[bridge]
and i know i gotta make it
and it’s all up to me
won’t be overcome by corruption and the greed
i’ve been given soil
now it’s time to plant the seed
get up, lil n-gg- and go follow your dreams—
wake up!
wake the f-ck up cause it’s been too long (wake up)
wake the f-ck up cause it’s been too long
[verse 2]
wake up, wake up
cause it’s been too long
left behind the old me
then write out my wrongs
we all got our own struggles so we gotta be strong
take the highs with the lows
like a f-ckin’ seesaw
with no malice i’m balancing
with the light that’s inside of me
keep challenging fallacy
till the truth is surrounding me
ooh
then, i take it to the booth
when i wake up
been slackin’ but i’m back in
so this verse is just make up
spit it from the heart
so you know it’s never made up
just tryna stay a straight and narrow like a f-ckin’ tape up
keep ascending to the stars we can all be the savior
absorb it in your soul then
save that sh-t for later
later (x4)
wake up, wake up (x3)
wake up
