Apollo Brown, Locksmith - Wake Up lyrics
[Apollo Brown, Locksmith - Wake Up lyrics]
Good morning new world, good morning America
No warning, no fear, no mourning, no cryin'
No tearin' up
No Crescent Park in the news and
No cousins that's gearin' up
No mother's weepin' and reason for
Grievin' we veering up
I'm clearin' up any past assumptions
I navigated the path you
Raided and allocated my
Space from the trap you brung us
I clung to the aspirations and goal
But the passive aggressive passion
That niggss be
Passin' off is an act of laymen
I'm layin' my mark in the sand
I don't wanna play no part in the plan
I don't wanna say what was
Underway you can never
Understand what's in the heart of a man
I manually manufacture my own trajectory
Still petrified if I step and slide
Nobody's catchin' me
Catch me after I cuff a million
I used to stand in the mirror and merely of
The moment I would ever touch this feelin'
I'm feelin' my light is a
Part of a larger scope
If you garnish hope then it ain't just
My art that you bargain for wake up
Yeah I mean I'm not wastin' a minute man
Y'all motherfuckers can play
Around ayo Apollo, yo
Rise and shine, get on top of your grind
Follow your heart and don't ever
Stop 'til you fly
Follow your passion, fuck if they askin'
They stay down I "wake up"
Then get down I "wake up"
This is just a fraction of his
Compassion but it isn't cash
And cashin' a check that my ass
Wrote when I dipped in rappin'
This distraction can never fix the past
How do I switch the caption? Switch the track
Niggas be sniffin' ass just to get a laugh in
Why would I ever rationalize when
Niggas be hashin' out lies
And it just so happens I'm after
Somethin' but I'm draggin' this pride
And it's like the baggage you have
To claim when the package arrives
Or passenger flies and you have to comply
I've been up, I've been even lower
Even though I've seen 'em grow
I've seen 'em blow
I've seen 'em sew up scenes
Even though it's so obscene
I know it, but I took those bruises in stride
And I’ve pushed that noose to the side
And it ain’t just you I confide
I’ve been up the creek, but the weight is off
Swimmin’ upstream withthe hate I’d scoff
I don’t wanna say what’s on the way, you
Could never understand what I had to take
I fought
I bought a piece of America’s nightmare
Sold it back inside a Rap
The highest price that you can bare wake up
Yeah y'all motherfuckers wanna
Procrastinate yo while
Y'all motherfuckers waitin' on that
Rise and shine, get on top of your grind
Follow your heart and don't ever
Stop 'til you fly
Follow your passion, fuck if they askin'
They stay down I "wake up"
Then get down I "wake up"
No warning, no fear, no mourning, no cryin'
No tearin' up
No Crescent Park in the news and
No cousins that's gearin' up
No mother's weepin' and reason for
Grievin' we veering up
I'm clearin' up any past assumptions
I navigated the path you
Raided and allocated my

But the passive aggressive passion
