The Wake Up
(Verse1 )
I probably could’ve chose something a little more stable
A simpler life
Food on the table
Grow old if I’m able
Come home from work, i kiss my wife and then call for my seeds
Ask how was school sit on the couch
Then watch some TV
A simpler life, with Honda Civics
And no Benzes and shit
I’d hate my job
But least some day I’ll get my pension and shit
This not the life I dream about but least I dream about it
Would love to travel I don’t know
One day we’ll see about it
I could’ve chose a simpler life
Where everything is fine
Like fuck a Rolex all these watches tell the same time
I could be on the side watching the ones who’s doing it
I could’ve been content with less, like those I grew up wit
Instead I’m out here balling
getting money, ducking laws,
Don’t know who’s praying on my downfall
But fuck em all
Quarter million on the wrist
We from the bottom cuz
Instead I’m up at booby trap throwing these dollars up
You are seeing a man of many skills
A rare combination !
(Verse 2)
Riding round in my city nigga I’m the one
Nigga I’m the Don
I be in design district going dumb
I’m just getting started I ain’t even done
Broke niggas want me going back and fourth
I just told my P.O I ain’t going to court
Too much trauma back when I was poor
Bitch I just Apple paid em for the Porshe!
Im on a jet, I could’ve been broke and depressed
I could’ve settled for less but instead I just threw up the dice and I hoped for the best
I know I met her five minutes ago but I gave her five thousand to cover her breast
I could’ve just kept my head down and just been a regular nigga nobody respect
I could’ve just worked at Target
But this Money done made me a Target
911’s in Condo garages
And my wifey like having menages
Could’ve been broke, could’ve been rich
Bitches would’ve been on me regardless
Cause I saw this when nobody saw this
But I guess that’s all part of the process
(Spanish Arguing)
(Verse 3)
But then again man I don’t know if I can handle it
Tired of subscribing to these dreams think I should cancel it
Fifty thousand in the club man thats some Manson shit
Madness, plus alcoholics man I got plenty in my fam and shit
So ill just force myself content I got a picket fence
Im grateful for my Rav 4 fuck it forget the Benz
Aint get the girl I loved but least shell stick it to the end
What you gone choose the Rolexes?
Or time with them?
