Way Up

Gotta elevate your mind
Look to the future man, never rewind
Better pay your dues in time
Cuz soon you'll leave what lies ahead far behind
In the present you better be gracious
Thank God for the people that stick by your side
If you can't take the time to be patient
You'll never reap all of the fruits that are sowed in the grind

Wake up
Way up
So we go
Way up
Waaaay up
Wake up way up
So we go
Way up

Said mary jane is the main reason that I wake up
Spendin every minute tryna get my cake up
Just to spend some time with my baby so delicious
Wrap her every night in a blanket made of swishers
Netflix and chill she's the homie for real
If you don't know the deal know my heart she did steal
Back in 2001 riding with training wheels
I was chiefin on blunts between sips of warm milk

Wake up
Way up
So we go
Way up
Waaaay up
Wake up way up
So we go
Way up

I took down so many Ls I already lost count
Spit on my name never fuck with my clout I know one day they'll say
I'm the hottest around
Talkin, money and power the things I threw out
A chess game I hit up a pawn shop with you
Went and grabbed us some tacos on Avalon too
It was that day that I traded my silver spoon
For a lifetime of blunts that'll never canoe
And we were cruisin northbound
Boomin dope sounds
If we stop at the bodega we can roll up some loud
Might smoke a pound every week or so
My lungs ain't gettin weaker tho
Been on my feet for weeks but don't mistake me for no tweaker ho
The back alley view might be gritty
Still I prefer my backwoods right here in the city
When it comes to that wood, girl you're sitting pretty
Now keep your body movin on me while I nibble on your titty
Wake up

Listen, up mothafuckas got to, love one another
I ain't, ta-lking bout your blood know that we all sisters and brothers

Ubuntu's what I'd like to teach you
Realize there isn't a soul that's beneath you
We're all interconnected, independent, sometimes irreverent, human specimens
Ergo I am, therefore I am
Because of you, my fellow man
So I cannot turn a blind eye on injustice
That's wearing on people all over the land you see
My sista always crying
My daddy always cheating
My brother always dying man
The cycle keeps repeatin'
The teachers always teachin'
The pastor always preaching
But nothin ever changes
What's the motherfuckin reason
Man fuck that shit
Pessimism better buck that bitch
I think it's time that we
Flip the script and trump can call it treason
I'll go down for causes I believe in
This is for the mother who is grieving
Loves her son she only wants to feed him
I don't care what type of life she leadin
If she got rights, then why the fuck she needin
Bless her heart she's thoughtful often lost in
Thoughts of loss it's got be exhausting
Always wondered what his life would cost if
He were white would he be in the coffin
Flip the script and some will call it treason
I'll go down for causes I believe in
Trump is on my mind I hear him breathing
So I rolled one up and started chiefin
Like November 8th you can bet your ass I rolled a blunt up
November 9th I was steady smokin to the sun up
November 9th I had to keep my head above the crumblin state
So I rolled a paper plane to lift away
It goes pack it in, roll it up, take a hit, take a puff
My homie prefer a bowl but i hit a blunt
Yo I'm going so crazy I burn my lungs
But i don't care cuz my president Donald Trump
Wake up
