wake up ft. Prodbyone Lyrics

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up, yeah

I see the sadness around me

I hate that it's so confounding

I simply wish I could turn off my brain, for real

You know this madness ain't stopping

We out here afraid to go shopping

Along with weapons

There's trauma that we conceal

I hit this blunt with the quickness

Cuz I be hoping and wishing

I don't go numb cuz life's better when you can feel

I leave the house on the daily

Praying the cops they won't spray me

Just wanna make it home safely

No getting killed, please

But I'm so thankful I'm breathing

I'm always changing like seasons

You know the money's the reason I'm working hard

I guess I know my potential

Want treatment so presidential

To love your life is essential to going far

Leave that resentment behind you

Things in the past don't define you

So happy that I could find you

Along my way up

Ain't sleeping recently

I been daydreaming frequently

And now my demons crying and screaming

The way they plead with me to

Wake up

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, yeah

Scary scenes on the TV

Of children running and screaming

The country's broken and bleeding

I think we doomed

They said the worst of the worst

It won't come second, but first

And all the pain and the hurt's

More than we'd assumed

So tell your family and friends

You'll always love em

And if your grandparents alive

Hug both of em

Time's racing, it's crazy how much we lose track

Wishing lottery tickets could buy the time we lost back

Future looking bleak

Playing hide and seek with my depression

I'm just hoping that it doesn't find me

Things is hard enough, going gets tough

But I be aight, it's in my blood

It's pumping like an IV

So when it's over and I'm dead and I'm gone

Play this song and sing along

Relieved as my spirit's on its way up

I can rest for eternity

God just wasn't sure of me

But them angels is greeting me as I wake up
