Awoke Lyrics by KillaTooma

Vision Builds Kingdoms

2021

[Hamilton Lavity Stoutt]
Even the sleeping dead will arise and say, “How come?”

[Intro]
Ah hah, I am
Ah hah, I am

[Chorus 1]
I’m awoke (ah hah)
I’m alive (I am)
I’m awoke (yeah ah hah)
To the lies (I am)
I’m awoke, I’m awoke, I’m awoke, I’m awoke, I’m alive (I am)
I’m awoke, yeah (ah hah)
To the lies (I am)

[Verse 1]
It’s unfortunate just to see how hard it is
The disenfranchised with fully loaded cartridges
With nothing to lose, ain’t nothing they fear, nothing
It start from, fighting in school to getting expelled
And then they, turn to the streets
They wasn’t prepared, for how it feel to have a dot on their head
To hеlp guide the lead
That’s why I pray thеy seek knowledge instead
But the youth act like their hearing impaired
Next thing you hear is they’re dead
Hopefully Jah forbid
Let’s cease the cookie-cutter thinking
That we got to rid
Authorities don’t recognize the problem is amid
All for a seat at the corner stone of the pyramid
I ring a thunderous voice, I know they’re hearing it
Forbidden philosophies, they’re mad I sharing it
I bring a harmonious poise, I know they’re fearing it
With intellectual properties, nobody nearing it
While your ears I serenade

[Chorus 2]
I’m awoke (ah hah)
I’m alive (I am)
I’m awoke (yeah ah hah)
To the lies (I am)
I’m awoke, I’m awoke, I’m awoke, I’m awoke, I’m alive (I am)
I’m awoke, yeah (ah hah)
To the lies (I am)

[Verse 2]
I just can’t accept the stories that they try to sell us, nah
So they label me a heathen and deemed me rebellious, ugh
They control with propaganda
We must understand that
Know that the system is a snake
The biggest anaconda
Got a million questions I know they could never answer
They just want us to comply so they could feed the monster
But knowledge is the master
Be careful what you ask for
Dark ages, we past that
The truth I going plaster
Now I floating while I toking on this hydro spliff
The meds I holding while decoding ancient hieroglyphs
While they feeding ‘em with helium’s the medium
It’s only five-percent see the oblivion
Open your eye and see the genocide
Nowadays they ain’t even trying to hide
Cause now we know that it’s a lot of lies

[Hamilton Lavity Stoutt]
Even the sleeping dead will arise and say…

[Chorus 3]
I’m awoke (ah hah)
I’m alive (I am)
I’m awoke (yeah ah hah)
To the lies (I am)
I’m awoke, I’m awoke, I’m awoke, I’m awoke, I’m alive (I am)
I’m awoke (yeah ah hah)
To the lies (I am)

[Gwendolyn]
JaCoy got my full attention one evening when he had a high fever
He began to behave erratically
He ran out of the house, picked up a piece of stick
And started to play a beat
The beat sounded as if it was of African origin
And he also sang along to the beat
I had never heard it before
But it seemed as if it was being composed on the spot
All this while, we had assume that he was awake
JaCoy was sleepwalking

I’m awoke
