Mick Jenkins, Nico Segal, Sean Deaux, Saba - Slumber lyrics

And tell your niggas
"Wake up, wake up, wake up
We can’t sleep too long, "
Way too long
Ain’t no TLC, boy, we can’t creep too long
Creep too long
We finna put you on some shit though
Shit though
THEMpeople make you wanna get low
But tell em "Wake up, wake up, wake up
We can’t sleep too long" wake up, wake up
We got bread to break up
We can’t be too long can’t sleep too long
We finna put you on some shit though
THEMpeople make you wanna get low (Get low)

Brush you teeth after the wake and bake
Drink more water, watch your fake intake
Don’t ever be scare to make mistakes
Thats how you grow
And avoidin’ the same mistakes you
Made is how you know
You movin’ forward, it's bout progressin’
I’m learnin’ lessons
Most of this shit is really perception
It's no perspective
Most of my niggas is the exception
The water keep us reflective
Thats why I gotta repeat it
Pearls of wisdom repeated
I’m chiefin’ with people that I
Can trust, rolling, burning
’til they depleted leave the ashes it's dust
They sayin’ cash is a must, I beg to differ
I take the little dipper
As long as the ladle full
I wanted to be an actor but I
Couldn’t play the fool at all
Miseducated, could give a fuck about
No school of thought, if you hate it
Food for thought
Regurgitatin’ what they played it for me
Cookin’ faded, look what we created
Then we catered for free

And tell your niggas
"Wake up, wake up, wake up
We can’t sleep too long, "
Way too long
Ain’t no TLC, boy, we can’t creep too long
Creep too long
We finna put you on some shit though
Shit though
THEMpeople make you wanna get low
But tell em "Wake up, wake up, wake up
We can’t sleep too long" wake up, wake up
We got bread to break up
We can’t be too long can’t sleep too long
We finna put you on some shit though
THEMpeople make you wanna get low (Get low)

Wake up, woke up to another 24
Some my brothers still in slumber
Thank the lord
We was just dreamin’ about makin’ it easier
The little things in life
You know the tedious
Well oh he was teachin’ us
He workin’ while the goonies hate
Real nigga in the same
Thing too they straight
I can’t complain I was able
When they was painin
Ain’t had cable but had a radio and a brain
Put two and two together in the ghetto
And thats how I came up off
My hoover thought a lil not
Mick even brought the water
I swear it's a fuckin’ potluck
Give us this day our daily bread and
Thats more than a dollar bill
Had to cope with a lot of bull
But ain't fold cuz I’m smart again
Look, they no longer recognize you
You once did a show iced
Tonic and didn’t impress anybody
Now look at you, you acquire
Your pussy rate has sky-rocketed
You came a long way since high school
You stepped out of your comfort zone

I think I used to sleep so long
Cause I ain't ever want to stop dreamin'
Count my blessings like sheep
This real life just won’t let me be
Wake up, wake up wake up, wake up
It’s time to wake up my niggas
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, it’s time to wake up
Right now i think I used to try too hard
Cause now everything comes easy
Open your eyes and trust yourself
And let the world see who you are
Its all yours its all yours
Its all yours
