Slumber
(And tell your niggas), "Wake up, wake up, wake up, we can't sleep too long," (way too long)
Ain't no T.L.C., boy, we can't creep too long (creep too long)
We finna put you on some shit though (shit though)
Them people make you wanna get low
(But tell em), "Wake up, wake up, wake up, we can't sleep too long (wake up, wake up)
We got bread to break up, we can't be too long (can't sleep too long)
We finna put you on some shit though
Them people make you, wanna get low (get low), hmm"
Brush your teeth after the wake and bake, uh
Drink more water, watch your fake intake, ah
Don't ever be scare to make mistakes, that's how you grow
And avoidin' the same mistakes you made, is how you know you movin' forward
It's s 'bout progressin', I'm learnin' lessons
Most of this shit is really perception, it's no perspective
Most of my niggas is the exception, the water keep us reflective
That's why I gotta repeat it, pearls of wisdom repeated
I'm chiefin' with people that I can trust
Rolling, burning, 'til they depleted, leave the ashes its dust
They sayin' cash is a must, I beg to differ
I take the little dipper, as long as the ladle full
I wanted to be an actor but I couldn't play the fool at all
Miseducated, could give a fuck about no school of thought, you hate it, food for thought
Regurgitatin' what they played it for me
Cookin' faded, look what we created, then we catered for free
(And tell your niggas), "Wake up, wake up, wake up, we can't sleep too long, (way too long)
Ain't no T.L.C, boy, we can't creep too long (creep too long)
We finna put you on some shit though (shit though)
Them people make you wanna get low"
But tell 'em, "Wake up, wake up, wake up, we can't sleep too long (wake up, wake up)
We got bread to break up, we can't be too long (can't sleep too long
We finna put you on some shit though, uh, uh
Them people make you, uh, wanna get low (get low)" (ooh)
Wake up, woke up to another 24
Some my brothers still in slumber, thank the Lord
We was just dreamin' about makin' it easier
The little things in life, you know they tedious
Well, oh he was teachin' us, he workin' while the goonies hate
Real nigga in the same thing too, they straight
I can't complain, I was able when they was painin'
Ain't had cable, but had a radio and a brain
Put two and two together in the ghetto
And that's how I came up off my hoover thought a lil' not
Mick even brought the water, I swear its a fuckin' potluck
Give us this day our daily bread, and that's more than a dollar bill
Had to cope with a lot of bull, but ain't fold 'cause I'm smart again
Look, they no longer recognize you
You once did a show Iced Tonic, and didn't impress anybody
Now, look at you, you acquire, your pussy rate has sky-rocketed
You came a long way since high school, you stepped out of your comfort zone
I think I used to sleep so long, 'cause, I ain't ever want to stop dreamin'
Count my blessings like sheep, this real life just won't let me be, uh, uh
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, it's time to wake up my niggas
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, it's time to wake up, right now, hey, yeah
I think I used to try too hard, 'cause now everything comes easy
Open your eyes and trust yourself, and let the world see who you are
Its all yours
Its all yours
Its all yours
Ain't no T.L.C., boy, we can't creep too long (creep too long)
We finna put you on some shit though (shit though)
Them people make you wanna get low
