Big K.R.I.T. - The Alarm lyrics
[Big K.R.I.T. - The Alarm lyrics]
(Do you believe) they could
Call you the greatest
So you pay your bills but you barely made it
(Do you believe) that it's
All on your shoulders
And everything would seem clear
If you stayed sober
(Do you believe) that your heart
Is really in it
When you know most these folks
Ain’t impressed with your vision
(Do you believe) that this pep talk
Will keep you in top form
When so many fell off
(Do you believe) that the
World feels your pain
It's kill or be killed
Can you keep what you claimed
(Do you believe) that you really can sustain
This lifestyle, Sky Miles
Ballin' in the chains
(Do you believe) that these niggas
Really fuck with you
When you hit rock bottom
Look how many stuck with you
(Do you believe) that the devil's all around
If he knocking at your door
Have strength to turn him down
(Do you believe) they can barely
Hear the real shit
In a world of fantasies, can you be a realist
(Do you believe) that
The governments concealing
Their true intentions
Apprehending those that won't be pillaged
(Do you believe) that doin' right
Will make you richer
And just because you paid these White
Folks still won't call you nigga
(Do you believe) that you
Can sacrifice it all
When the ball's in your court and
Your time has been called
(Do you believe) that God will forgive you
For those times that you didn’t
Let Him steer you
For those times that you up and lost faith
Cause you swore He couldn’t hear
You and nothing ever changed
(Do you believe) that screamin' out His name
When you lost your best friend is
What really helped the pain
(Do you believe) that you never loved fame
And you wouldn’t miss a dime if
You lost it all today
Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!
Call you the greatest
So you pay your bills but you barely made it
(Do you believe) that it's
All on your shoulders
And everything would seem clear
If you stayed sober
(Do you believe) that your heart
Is really in it
When you know most these folks
Ain’t impressed with your vision
(Do you believe) that this pep talk
Will keep you in top form
When so many fell off
(Do you believe) that the
World feels your pain
It's kill or be killed
Can you keep what you claimed
(Do you believe) that you really can sustain
This lifestyle, Sky Miles
Ballin' in the chains
(Do you believe) that these niggas
Really fuck with you
When you hit rock bottom
Look how many stuck with you
(Do you believe) that the devil's all around
If he knocking at your door
Have strength to turn him down
(Do you believe) they can barely
Hear the real shit
In a world of fantasies, can you be a realist
(Do you believe) that

Apprehending those that won't be pillaged
(Do you believe) that doin' right

Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!
