Awake Lyrics by Awon

Soulapowa

2019

Intro: Awon
Yeah, yeah, Dugga, Awon, Anti, Don't Sleep

Verse 1: Awon
I'm awake now, top of the morning gotta get it
Blue collar nigga, clocking in for the digits
On my day off, the Mac's on I'm recording
Amplifying game, around the world they hear my story
Niggas got bills, and we got kids that gotta eat
No excuses, you get it legally or streets
Stay on hot shit, the block in sunburnt for months
Jeff Sessions and Trump, talkin shit on the stump
So whether you rollin the blunts, or just to somethin to bump
Be ready to run like Gump, when them sirens are in front
I'm awake now, I know my niggas they are hunted
Police forces are funded by private prison corruption
These political pundits blind descended and puppets
They sorry like they say fuck it, I watch em and can't help jumpin
I'm awake now, I know my niggas they are hated
And now I'm calculated with every move that I'm making
I'm never faking the funk, this never laced with the junk
For some do what they told, and some do what they want
It's whatever's on my mind, that I'm putting in my rhymes
If you conscious you may find a tulip to up in these lines

Hook: Awon
I'm awake now, top of the morning getting cake
I'm awake now, cuz if you sleeping you are late
I'm awake now, talking that shit niggas relate
I'm awake now, runnin a marathon you race
(x2)

Verse 2: Anti Lilly
Awake now, awake now, Anti, awake now, Don't Sleep
Sitting on the top of the world, top of the morning
I'm from the bottom of the bottle where my niggas surrounded by sirens
Dividing just like violins
All we hear is the sounds
Where my surroundings orchestrated through sound
Coming down like rain from the clouds
Feel the weight of the crowns
Since the day that I was born
It was no thorns but my papa warned me
They hate my people like they hated Jesus (like they hated Jesus)
They got me reading tryna understand the reason
Why my brother gotta die just cuz you ain't fit for your life (rip)
You offend the Devil's appetite
In the hope ain't getter fatter
Too many black bastards, we moving backwards faster
Than a flash too many of our papas held captive
For laying in a casket, we slayed other, they make us hate each other
Fighting for scraps when we worth the Earth
They gave us service instead of soil to raise each other
The soul of a black man made to withstand the wrath of the wicked man
So we keep pushing forward cuz that's the only way we know
Hey, when I sow my seed I just pray that it grow
Cuz I'm awake now, I was dreaming for way too long nigga
A dream don't mean nothin if your spirit asleep

Hook: Anti Lilly
I'm awake now, cuz it's a brand new day
I’m awake now, it's time to get this cake
I'm awake now, cuz you won't eat if you late
I'm awake now, run this marathon everyday
(x2)

Outro: Anti Lilly
Don't Sleep nigga, my big bro Awon, whole family
