Wide Awoke Lyrics

Peace to the Gods

The true and living

With the clearest vision

The chosen ones who chose themselves

Suntruth

And I won't sleep no more

I'm wide awoke, wide awoke

I'm wide awoke, wide awoke

And I won't sleep no more

I'm wide awoke, wide awoke

I'm wide awoke, wide awoke

Gleam in my eye

Holding my gun

Feeling bold inside

Mark, get set, run it

Tryna fill this hole inside

Devils told a lie

Had me convinced

That being a man

Was to get on some ol gangsta shit

So through the bars I've burned

In his Hell on earth

But through my scars

I've learned to build up self-worth

Though, pray tell

How can a man heal in Hell

Fighting for his life

Pray they don't seal the well

The prey they don't see well

Caught lacking by the jackals

And I ain't gon' cap, duke

In the past I might of jacked you, too

But that's in the past

And I'm a changed man

And now I'm thinking long range

I got a whole new game plan

And if you only do the same

You get more of the same man

Raise your frequency

Let's take a brain scan

Want to Make a difference

Be different, see differently

I had an Epiphany

Got the Knowledge of Self

And from the bondage it lifted me

Now I won't sleep no more

I'm wide awoke, wide awoke

I'm wide awoke, wide awoke

Now I won't sleep no more

I'm wide awoke, wide awoke

I'm wide awoke, wide awoke

Ancestral spirits looking over my shoulders

Whispering words of Wisdom

Asking me to push forward

Throughout the trials and tribulations

Slavery, suffering, and death

I'm empowered by their strength

That I inhale through each breath

In my mind's recess

I reach depths unknown

And, Lo, I struck Gold

Found the Philosopher's Stone

Your Karma's your own

I paid for mine in the dark

Swimming with sharks

Majored in the Criminal Arts

See, I played that part

But that's not the shape of my heart

Change up my thoughts

A Call of Duty

I had to respawn

But life is like a game of dice

Seldom though

Do you have a chance to play it twice

So make sure you play em right

No ass-betting

Understand your Culture

Roll with God

It's I Self Lord and Master, like Farad

I stood on the front lines

Of a spiritual war

And I'm still here ten toes

I build with the Gods

I said I stood on the front lines

Of a spiritual war

And I'm still here ten toes

I build with the Gods

And I won't sleep no more

I'm wide awoke, wide awoke

I'm wide awoke, wide awoke

And I won't sleep no more

I'm wide awoke, wide awoke

I'm wide awoke, wide awoke

And I won't sleep no more

I'm wide awoke, wide awoke

I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
