Awoken Lyrics

Expectations out the window

Aspirations to become the hero

My intricate thoughts will crescendo

As I keep moving across the page with my pencil

Foundations laid out as I tell my tales

I promise to speak the truth and to never fail

When I create these images that peaks their interests

Ideas so endless, my work so rigorous I

Don't want to fall flat, but try to evolve

Work on new formats, stray from default

Like it's my last chance, I want to resolve

Any dilemmas with others involved

Before something happens and I'm gone forever

Like I was a shot to 450 dead center

But know that I'm trying to take on the pressure

And know that I'm trying not to surrender

Focus on the Knowledge placed Above All Nonsense

So I'll rise like a Phoenix with a heightened sense

By taking inspiration from the Kaancepts

That were laid out by a stellar performance

With great importance, that worked in accordance

With thoughts enormous, provided reinforcement

To my words recorded, that weren't supported

By positive rewards and left me distorted

I'm Fragile minded hoping they get the message

Should've listened to the N9ne, they want me in wreckage

But I worked so hard it's critically obsessive

Until the finished product is something I can relish

Like the pyramids it's not my time to crumble

I'll live on for millennia and beat the struggle

There were plenty of times where I screwed up and stumbled

But those moments have always kept me so humbled

Deeply devoted and staying focused on the prize at hand

As I climb the ladder and make a mark where I stand

While my goals expand, don't expect me to hesitate

I will only elevate, just give me a second to acclimate

The element I'm residing in and now fully fighting for

Reaching the pinnacle position is leaving me wanting more

Of what I've been longing for, one final opportunity

To prove wrong the scrutiny, and strengthen my immunity

From doubt and debate as I find my fate in my craft

The spot I lay and time I take to perfect each draft

So I can break off the chains that held me in the past

That have kept me detached from being able to surpass

Negative perceptions that are kept frozen in time

So I'll take new directions that will keep me in line

With the way I'm reinventing myself, I will be sublime

With my state of mind and the image that I designed

Back in business better believe I'm busting down

Every locked door til it's all shattered on the ground

So you can hear the sound of me completing what I vowed

Until I finally succeed and I take that final bow

I put a hundred percent effort just wanting to be noticed

For my ability to focus on my effort to become potent

To the point where I'm no longer my greatest opponent

With a new mindset to know that I now must control what

I think, I've been on the brink far longer than I should

But it made me stronger knowing I actually withstood

Everything I could before it became too much to handle

But I channeled that energy into something substantial

Imma make sure I don't act solely on my emotion

So I've chosen to block out everything that would leave me broken

But many don't care about a single word that I've spoken

But talking myself through this, I'm finally awoken

King
