Awake Lyrics by Big Hit

Free Big Hit

2025

[Intro: Big Hit]
\nHow long you think niggas gon' be sleep?
\nLike this God speakin', nigga
\nParkin' the bell, nigga
\n
\n[Chorus: Big Hit]
\n(Awake)
\nIt's not beauty and the beast
\nIt's beauty in the beast
\nNiggas no longer blink (Awake)
\nEvery man of Allah
\nEvery soldier on the yard
\nBloods, Crips, GDs, Vice Lords (Awake)
\nFrom Chicago to Cali
\nFrom New York to Miami
\nIn every hood, block, and alley (Awake)
\nWe no longer set blippin'
\nA new king has risen
\nWith strength and enrichment
\n
\n[Verse 1: Big Hit]
\nTime to lay down a demonstration, yeah
\nHit-Boy been laced him, 'bout to rude awaken 'em
\nHahaha, tables done turned, bridges done burned
\nOnce that window is closed, it's over, you heard?
\nThrew up my hands like, "Blood, I'm through"
\nTired of throwin' the bags, runnin' from the boys in blue
\nTired of wonderin' if this next car gon' shoot
\nTired of these watered-down Damus hollerin' out, "Whoop"
\nCome on, lil' homie, I heard it all before
\nAll them killer stories, shit really bore me
\nWho could be against me if Jehovah is for me?
\nI did my homework, you workin' with authorities
\nReliable source exposin' paid informants
\nBut I'm ballin' with Hit-Boy, I knew it was one for me
\nKnew I was destined for greatness, on me
\nIf we don't get the respect we deserve, we gon' take shit
\n
\n[Chorus: Big Hit]
\n(Awake)
\nIt's not beauty and the beast
\nIt's beauty in the beast
\nNiggas no longer blink (Awake)
\nEvery man of Allah
\nEvery soldier on the yard
\nBloods, Crips, GDs, Vice Lords (Awake)
\nFrom Chicago to Cali
\nFrom New York to Miami
\nIn every hood, block, and alley (Awake)
\nWe no longer set blippin'
\nA new king has risen
\nWith strength and enrichment
\n
\n[Verse 2: Hit-Boy]
\nSo many tears on a hard face, they tattoo it
\nWhen I create from a dark place, that's black music
\nG's dance to it, bang and stack to it
\nGang signs in the daytime
\nCould be motivatin' if we all push the same line
\nMaybe they'll get it one day
\nOr is it way too late? Shit, I don't know
\nAnd you could never understand the shit we go through
\nThey ain't gotta know your name, niggas'll still smoke you
\nToo many complex con artists, they want you to stop ballin'
\nMy driver reversed in, he keep the Maybach started
\nI pursued my calling, so how could you hate on me?
\nAnd make me feel like this red beam gotta stay on me?
\nMy own kind, take some time to get to know God
\n'Cause knowin' God is knowin' yourself
\nI really had to do it dolo, homie, no help
\nSo you could do it too, dreams only come true if you awake (Awake)
\n
\n[Chorus: Big Hit]
\nIt's not beauty and the beast
\nIt's beauty in the beast
\nNiggas no longer blink (Awake)
\nEvery man of Allah
\nEvery soldier on the yard
\nBloods, Crips, GDs, Vice Lords (Awake)
\nFrom Chicago to Cali
\nFrom New York to Miami
\nIn every hood, block, and alley (Awake)
\nWe no longer set blippin'
\nA new king has risen
\nWith strength and enrichment\n\n
