Sleeping Lyrics by Scott Simms

David

2018

[Chorus]
You been sleeping on me oh
You been sleeping on me oh
Wake up, wake up
Wake up wake up
You been sleeping on me oh
You been sleeping on me oh
Wake up, wake up
Wake up wake up

[Verse 1]
I been thinking lately yeah
And it drives me crazy there's
Somethin' that I gotta do, I'm feeling like it's major
Somethin' like a calling, that I got from my Creator
I was moving, You did everything said You would
And who is foolish enough to think that they could look over what You said I could do and who You said I was (Do and who You said I was)
In You I put all my trust
I'm about to take my place
Droppin' giants with my faith
They don't wanna hear me cause I write to make em' think
And I got a big soul, but I'm only 5'8
Guess I'm too small, but it doesn't matter I'ma do all
'Cause He gave me power and I'm overtaking every single thing in my way
And there's no mistaking who I'm 'posed to be

[Chorus]
You been sleeping on me oh
You been sleeping on me oh
Wake up, wake up
Wake up wake up
You been sleeping on me oh
You been sleeping on me oh
Wake up, wake up
Wake up wake up

[Verse 2]
No apology (Yeah)
Everything I need (Yeah)
In You I believe (Yeah)
My strength when I'm weak (Yeah)
I cannot deny it, even when I'm going through it Ima give You, every thing I got to try to prove it
When I'm losing, You give everything You said You would
And who is foolish enough to think that they could look over what You said I could do and who You said I was (Do and who You said I was) in you I put all my trust
Ima give it all away
So that I can see your face
Your mercy and Your grace, I think about it every day
And if I can't attain it, I would probably fade away guess You're too great
But I promise I'ma find You today
And I won't deny You cause You're overtaking every single thing in my way and there's no mistaking who I'm 'posed to be yeah

[Chorus]
You been sleeping on me oh
You been sleeping on me oh
Wake up, wake up
Wake up wake up
You been sleeping on me oh
You been sleeping on me oh
Wake up, wake up
Wake up wake up

[Outro]
You been sleeping on
You been sleeping on
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
You been sleeping on
You been sleeping on
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
