Wake Up Kid

I got poor mans dreams
Tryna make it out from the fiends
Out of the streets
Tryna bag an ounce of the
Used to be all that i need
Darkness
When youre blind thats all that you see
In my prime now they all wanna preach
When you're down no they never need a reason
Ridicule the shallow in the deep end
On the week end
Nightmares in these streets no dreamin

So Wake up kid
Wake up
Wake up kid
Wake up
Wake up kid
Wake up
What you tryna hide thru the make up
I used to trip till I laced up
Always come a time gotta face up
So Wake up kid
Wake up

I'm not a nice guy when the sun rise
Chill laid back when the sun set
A lot of things changed I must say so
Remember days in a rave with the half step
Had a bag of fun but that don't last
Looking up to the stars
Conditioned by the land that we stand on
Repositioned I'm a man with a plan on
Yea trust me you gon
Pay a price
If you cut corners
In the long run
Never any luck for us
See it how it is so I say it
Next life could be bliss or it could be torture
We can never know
We really all together in the same boat
No one's the same
At the same time
Get the fuck off of your high horse
Every day feel long but this life short
Open your eyes
Who created divide
Yeah it's on us
Used to tip tip toe round my problems
I can't do that no more
Can't do that no more
Had to wake up

Kid wake up
Wake up kid
Wake up
Wake up kid
Wake up
Wake up kid
Wake up
What you tryna hide thru the make up
I used to trip till I laced up
Always come a time gotta face up
So Wake up kid
Wake up

Pain is the essence
Life is a lesson
I got a lot questions up in my head
Got a lot of questions deep in my dome
Why do I feel comfort when it's me alone
Do I stay or go
Do I stay or go
Where do I feel at home
Why do I need to know
Big man no fight left to give
Open your eyes ignorant
Live the best life you can live
Two worlds collide delicate
When I get high reminisce
Uh
Yeah
A part of me died in a trip
I couldn't wake up

Fuck that
You weren't there when I'm down now I'm up and you back I can't trust that
