wake up
i need to learn to be me again
to read to discern to see me again
for my past and my present to meet again
then to see it all burn and be free again
wake up
wake up
i need to learn to be me again
to read to discern to see me again
for my past and my present to meet again
then to see it all burn and be free again
wake up
wake up
i was in need of some shoulders
higher than me on the totem
down on your knees what they told me
man i get on my knees for no one
ain’t no man good enough here to rule over man
pain ain’t enough to stop you from your plan
to maintain that nugget of truth in your hands
can’t n0body f+ck with you why would they f+ck with you
talk to myself cus there’s no one
who’d walk through my h+ll with a cold one
can’t n0body tell you i owe them
but many could tell you i’ve owned them
wake up
wake up
i don’t idolize the timid
or the coddled minds or the flippant
the cons and the liars they’re all compromisers
to young to retire to this sh+t
the fire was made for the willing
to perspire is to state that we living
you can take these two l’s right between your two eyes
why? cus we making a k!lling
wake up
if opportunity won’t call you again
and you stuck with blood suckers who call themselves friends
and the doors are all locked with the walls closing in
just go knock down those f+ckers like where have y’all been
i need to learn to be me again
to read to discern to see me again
for my past and my present to meet again
then to see it all burn and be free again
to see it all burn
y’all were asleep acting honorary
like f+ck what you think i don’t want a penny
you was puffing on dragons and strawberry’s
maybe your short on that cake cus your aura lazy
now i’m robbing peter to pay some paul and mary
how’am i caught in the weeds without smoking any
i don’t talk i believe and i’m more than ready
to get the f+ck out of this ordinary
i be dreaming even when it’s seeming impossible
keeping demons from defeating that powerful will
in dealing with these feelings as obstacles
contemplate consummate gospel the probable
cosmic the countable objects surmountable
compliment mouse holes and mountains tall
problems you gotta solve just enough to compound it all
and make something phenomenal
f+ck it
i don’t idolize the timid
or the coddled minds or the flippant
the cons and the liars they’re all compromisers
to young to retire to this sh+t
the fire was made for the willing
to perspire is to state that we living
you can take these two l’s right between your two eyes
why? cus i’ma be making a k!lling
