Got Up to Get Up

Ay boy, had to, had to, uh
One time for the winter
Ay boy, uh

I come alive right between midnight and dawn
We won't survive if we keep on waiting on the sun
I got up to get up (got up to get up)
I got up to get up (got up to get up)
Don't wanna die before we can show em what we be on
No time to lie, can't lay up
I stay up tryna fix whats wrong
I got up to get up (got up to get up)
I got up to get up (got up to get up)

Life, peppered with inconsistency
I feel like I know all of my goals and dreams intimately
Woke up to soak up, put foot on the gas infinitely
Talking bout drive
Talking bout a nigga had to run red lights
Gotta get to the soiree
Gotta meet at the Barclays
Taking meetings at Flatbush
Jumped out the door, had to ask how the cash look
A lot of questions, a bag on the table
I can't sleep, I ain't stable
Eye lids on open
Sometimes my mind ain't on focused
But if a
Nigga
Stamina slip up
I pick up where I left off
I been up, been kicked down, I been lost
Pissed off
Gotta drop a chick off
At 3:35 AM
Love how that girl frame bend
We nocturnal, what's the message in the hieroglyphics?
It's in my blood to get up and go get it
I try to make my grind a pattern
They asking "what happened?"

I come alive right between midnight and dawn
We won't survive if we keep on waiting on the sun
I got up to get up (got up to get up)
I got up to get up (got up to get up)
Don't wanna die before we can show em what we be on
No time to lie, can't lay up
I stay up tryna fix whats wrong
I got up to get up (got up to get up)
I got up to get up (got up to get up)

Ay boy, we do this everyday, don't be so shocked
Enjoy the presence of some grinders on your block
Slumber... cut short, rolled out of bed, rolled up with rolling papers
Ain't tryna ask for favors
Vengeance for how they played us
And I promise we'll be cool, yeah
Learning to forgo your rules, yeah
Sweating enough to fill up a pool, yeah
I'm hot right now, but I'm finna improve
Been evolving, bi-pedal, standing on the sofa
Cameraman snapping close ups
Think they know us, but you can't control us
We're all faltering, if it's all or nothing, never let it go
We on the verge, yeah we getting close
Been preoccupied with this lap dance
In first class
Need to pay attention, stay driven, no tap dance
Ain't no chuck and jive
Hold on to your pride
Soul ain't up for purchase
But I'm moving music like a merchant

I come alive right between midnight and dawn
We won't survive if we keep on waiting on the sun
I got up to get up (got up to get up)
I got up to get up (got up to get up)
Don't wanna die before we can show em what we be on
No time to lie, can't lay up
I stay up tryna fix whats wrong
I got up to get up (got up to get up)
I got up to get up (got up to get up)
