Awake (feat. Westside Boogie)

Ahead of the game, only nearin' my prime

I still need some time, guess it was destiny, me and the rhymes

Had to comply, couldn't rely on my talent

Working all day nearly cost me my balance

That shit was bitter but cleaned off my palette

I rose through the challenge, the fingers are calloused

A gallant combatant, tippin' the scales when I throw off some ballast

Days I've been absent, been laying the bricks for my palace

Tryna live bougie, eat dinners in Paris, like I'm established

Starting a war in the lobby, that's Enies

I couldn't fail, I drank felix felicis

Increasing the gears and the demon unleashes

Dominant realness inside of my sequence

Know I'm a vibe, so don't fuck up frequency

Don't introduce to none of them freak friends

They only trying to find out my weakness

Bags under eyes, can't you tell that I'm sleepless?

Turn to a wolf in the night, call me Remus

You ain't my dawg, man, you cannot be Sirius

Life is a game, you just gather experience

Trust the wrong guys, they gon' hit you with treason

They turned into rats like they Pettigrew

Laugh in my face my like, "What can he do?"

But I'm bouncin' right back, this an alley-oop

Now they look at the boy be like, "Damn, he grew"

I haven't forgotten, your debt, it grew

Nah, fuck the skeptics who layin' traps that I won't fall into

Don't put a wolf in a petting zoo

When I pull up the wrecking crew, trust even Christ won't be saving you, ah!

Been struggling for long nights, awaitin' the day

Time for fun in the sunlight, absorbin' the rays (oh, oh, oh)

Our blood, sweat and tears combined sharpened our blades

Our lives is a movie, our hearts on a tape (oh, oh, oh)

Working hard with no break, not starting today

Our bars hold this weight 'cause we're all now awake (oh)

We got what it takes, we not from this place

If you still wanna play, you's a goddamn disgrace (oh, oh, oh)

Despite of your beliefs, huh (despite of your beliefs)

I know that your dreams

Ain't coming to you while you sleep, whoa (while you sleep)

Cool if you win, it's more impressive you repeat, huh

To tell you 'bout my stories on the ground

'Cause I been beat, huh (whoa, whoa)

This shit get deep, you tell me not to be so worried (huh, be so worried)

Gotta stay locked in, I know this process gon' get blurry

These **** scary, got this hunger in my stomach, huh

You feel the tension 'round the **** who don't want it, I know, yeah

Thankful, yeah, that I ain't a bitch, I know that I'm able (know that I'm able)

Thankful that I could be calm when this shit ain't stable (shit ain't stable)

Thankful, yeah

Can't let 'em bait you, can't let 'em break you

You got a breakthrough, saying they made you, no

You think you won't need, help how much hours you gon' give?

How much you keeping for yourself?

There's things that I done felt that I won't never get to say, huh

Maybe I will, I save it for another day (whoa, whoa, yeah, yeah)

Been struggling for long nights, awaitin' the day

Time for fun in the sunlight, absorbin' the rays (oh, oh, oh)

Our blood, sweat and tears combined sharpened our blades

Our lives is a movie, our hearts on a tape (oh, oh, oh)

Working hard with no break, not starting today

Our bars hold this weight 'cause we're all now awake (oh)

We got what it takes, we not from this place

If you still wanna play, you's a goddamn disgrace (oh, oh, oh)

We came a long way from the bottom

Still on the chase and the problems keep hauntin' me

Tryna escape from the horrible feelin'

That what I'm tryna take on a run from me

Won't hit the brakes when they humble me

I gotta escape from that company

They hate from the back, but have fun with me, come with me

They cool as long as we winnin' to some degree

Foolin' around on the hill 'til we underneath

Rulin' from clouds, we'll be kings, we will run these streets

Sip on a Summersby, chillin' and feelin' the wind like a bumblebee

Throw a lil' party, write a new summary

With a new harmony, y'all sing the song with me

Harvestin' all of the shit that we sowed, that's what karma be

Two man anomaly, L's, we don't normally do 'em

Look at how calm we be when we recruitin'

Ain't got a gun with me, still we be shootin'

Shuttin' 'em down 'til a **** rebootin'

Poppin' a frown at the fact he a nuisance

Front of our pen game, you sound like a doofus

Run from our rampage, you know what the truth is

The pillar is manmade, the builders are ruthless

Go figure yourself if your **** can do this

Time to awaken these dreamers

Ain't no debatin' with genius

We on our way to the greatest arenas

Our seniors, the latest MCs never seen us

Ready for war like I'm Mars and I ain't met my Venus

You don't like my style, suck my penis, then beat it

Repeat it, I mean it, next time you should remain seated

Unless you tryna risk another beatin'

Been struggling for long nights, awaitin' the day

Time for fun in the sunlight, absorbin' the rays (oh, oh, oh)

Our blood, sweat and tears combined sharpened our blades

Our lives is a movie, our hearts on a tape (oh, oh, oh)

Working hard with no break, not starting today

Our bars hold this weight 'cause we're all now awake (oh)

We got what it takes, we not from this place

If you still wanna play, you's a goddamn disgrace (oh, oh, oh)
