​wide awake Lyrics by SonReal

i can’t make this up

2021

[Verse 1]
I try to write you how I feel, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
But I been runnin' out of space on a full page, so
I'll try my best to show you still (Show you still, yeah)
I'll hold your hand when I'm too old to walk on stage

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm wide awake (Wide awake, wide awake)
To the moment we have right now
'Cause tomorrow's just a day
Yeah, I'm wide awake (Wide awake, wide awake)
To what we have and what we've made
Yes, with me you're always safe

[Chorus]
If I just tell you thе truth
Then I got nothin' to lose
I don't want nothin' but you (Ah yeah, ah yеah, ah yeah)
Give me that good déjà vu
No candles, you light my room
I don't want nothin' but you (Nothin' but you)

[Verse 2]
Yeah, ayy
You brought a daughter to my arms (To my, my arms, yeah)
And when I look at her, I see you and your ways, so (Yeah, yeah)
No one gets out life unscarred (Life unscarred, yeah)
But I'll be by you when this road becomes unpaved (Hey, hey)

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm wide awake, yeah (Wide awake, wide awake)
When we eight-five, I'll look at you
And love you just the same
Yeah, I'm wide awake (Wide awake, wide awake)
To what we have and what we've made
Yes, with me you're always safe

[Chorus]
If I just tell you the truth
Then I got nothin' to lose
I don't want nothin' but you (Ah yeah, ah yeah, ah yeah)
Give me that good déjà vu
No candles, you light my room
I don't want nothin' but you (Nothin' but you)

[Verse 3]
When I never had a dollar on me, ain't nobody followin' me
You would always pick me up when I had no one callin' on me
Wide awake to everything, even when it's pourin' rain
You give me so many things, so I gave you a wedding ring
It's somethin' I'll never explain (Oh no, no)
It's somethin' I'll never explain (Oh no)
If things fell apart and I was wishin' on stars
I know you'd still be ridin' the same, same

[Chorus]
If I just tell you the truth
Then I got nothin' to lose
I don't want nothin' but you (Ah yeah, ah yeah, ah yeah)
Give me that good déjà vu
No candles, you light my room
I don't want nothin' but you (Nothin' but you)
