Dead Faces II Lyrics by Isaiah James

Phases, Vol. 3

2021

[Verse 1]
I got big dreams, grip the mic and rock the stage
Creating rhymes for a living
Yeah, that’s how I’d be paid
But instead I got these growing pains that come with my age
Making the most of what I got, you know that minimum wage
Now I done had a lot of privilege, you could also call it blessings
But now I gotta make it happen I tell you I been stressing
Nothing popping with my checking
So now I can’t be resting, no more carefree adolescence
Man, adulthood be depressing
If you don’t get some change then it’s hard to make the change
Know the Lord only thе way to peace of mind that’s sustained
But it’s hard to havе faith I got these worries that drain
This junk a category 5, the devil pitching that ‘cane
No, I ain’t married to currency but this state I’m in currently
Yeah, it got me down and out I need a money tree to sprout
No, it ain’t everything but it helps with a lot of things, man
I told y’all ‘bout them, ‘bout them dead faces
[Chorus]
Gotta wake up, wake up, wake up, yeah
Gotta get my cake up, cake up, cake up, yeah
‘Cause I’m sick of being broke
But I’m tryna have hope
That the Lord gonna guide me wherever I go
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I’m down for the moment but I will bounce back
Man, I love it when you got it then you give it right back
‘Cause that’s gon’ make this world a better place
That poverty mentality is toxic
That there, no, I never embrace
Tit for tat, no, never that I believe in the radical
Though my funds is collapsible, man, I still be adaptable
These conditions can be switching
But my faith ain’t ever flinching, man, working with these kids
Their love I never forget it
That remind me what’s important, not the money we be hoarding
Even if we got a lot, this life can be still so boring
Who you loving? Who you serving?
How you making a difference?
Step outside yourself, expand your scope
Don’t let yourself be ig’nant
[Chorus]
Gotta wake up, wake up, wake up, yeah
Gotta get my cake up, cake up, cake up, yeah
‘Cause I’m sick of being broke
But I’m tryna have hope
That the Lord gonna guide me wherever I go
Wherever I go
Wherever I go
Wherever I go
[Outro]
