Wide Awake

I just wanted to say thanks for all the love that I get
For the people in the crowd who really vibe with the shit
For the ones convinced they never had the promise to fit
For the artist with the passion but the fear to commit I'm here
Made an album from my passion but that's last year
Here to switch gears bring cheers stop these tears
But I'm only getting started on the grind again
Do a couple shows cause I'm only here to entertain
If you ever feel like you're not worth it
I apologize I really do but you are so fucking wrong
I'm a boy that had a dream that wanted more than anything
To have a minute of your time for me to share my song
I just wanna say to kids the words they never said to me
Growing up is only painful if you never learn to be
I don't have a lot of answers but I'll leave you with the key
Being sad is but a step in trying to be happy

I know the pain is deep but is it really worth your fall
When standing on the edge of entropy the demons call
I made good friends with darkness so that when it takes me whole
I won't have given up yet I have almost reached my goal

So don't ever say you're wrong
Put your pain inside a song
You know I have always said
It's what we tow that makes us strong
When I was a little boy
No one ever saw me for
The ideas in my head
That made me differ from the norm
I know that the tables turn when you supply the elbow grease
I've been waiting way too long to leave this place so ergo peace
I've been silent all my life I speak with no apologies
I just want to have the courage necessary to achieve
Everything I've ever wanted is for me to be accepted
But I grew up I don't need it anymore it's overrated
As a kid I would imagine I would grow to be a star
Still a couple miles away but homie that ain't really far sing

We judge our bodies and ourselves from what we see online
I'm here to be the voice to tell you don't give up this time
I long to see a world where everybody's doing fine
So when you look Into yourself I hope it's peace you'll find

I know the pain is deep but is it really worth your fall
When standing on the edge of entropy the demons call
I made good friends with darkness so that when it takes me whole
I won't have given up yet I have almost reached my goal

Work on the things that you can today
And tomorrow will be different in a better way
Excuses fade away
When the reason of your mission leaves you wide awake
And work on the things that you can today
And tomorrow will be different in a better way
Excuses fade away
When the reason of your mission leaves you wide awake
