Rooster Crows ft. Zues Lyrics

I wake up before the rooster crows

I wake up before the rooster crows

I got a lot on my mind, can't seem to let it all go

I been thinking this life isn't ready for me

I been creeping around all the zombies I see

I keep praying to God, he continues to guide

Never had a role, model or hero

Just people I didn't wanna be, don't wanna be a zero

My demons keep on hunting me, I never feel safe

Done playing keep up, I'm sick of this game

Tryna navigate the battlefield that's laying in my brain

Making visits to the liquor store, there's whiskey in my veins

I been hurting for a minute, wishing for them better days

Knowing that I gotta be patient, this ain't minute made

It's been feeling like forever since I seen a sunny day

So something's gotta give or they gon' feel my rain

Lord, forgive me for making my own way

I know I'ma pay the price, so I'm ready for that day

They put dirt on my coffin and fill up my grave

Gotta load up my pistol and watch for the snakes

Cause tomorrow ain't promised, I know what they say

Tryna find a way to release all my rage

So I pull out my pen and put ink on the page

I ain't never had a verse, they ain't feel what I say

They hear Zeus on the track and they hit the replay

I wake up before the rooster crows

I got a lot on my mind, that's what the booth is for

Not into wasting time, sleep in the studio

I got a family to feed, that's who I do it for, you know

On my mind is this grind every day

On my grind, Tony Hawk, Pro Skate

All these records like I'm taking PEDs

All the sudden they been talking bout me

Gotta have tough skin, but I need emotion

When I sharpen up the pen in these bars like the pen

I got scars open, on these beats I been bleeding

With my demons I been pleading

Lord, forgive me for making my own way

I been tryna get paid off the words that I say

Straight from my heart, they can't keep up with my pace

Set myself apart, only me on this race

Sun hitting on my phone, it's got a glare

Ain't a blink in my eyes as I stare

Social media just make us all compare

Ain't nobody ever say that shit was fair

They go pay for the streams, then go brag on IG

Take a peek behind the curtain, ain't shit in life free

In this game, I heard them say that perception is key

But you lying to yourself and it's pretty clear to see

Yeah, it's pretty clear to see, but I ain't tripping no more

I'm just worried bout me, if it ain't in my control

Had to learn to let it go, hold my temper gotta grow

Rolling up, I gotta smoke

Feel like I lived twice in this one

Lord willing, I ain't close to done

But I'm closer to God with every flow I got

And this right here, this right here, this the holy one

This right here, this right here, this the holy one
