NF - Wake Up lyrics
[NF - Wake Up lyrics]
You spend your life in a
Dream that you can't escape
'Cause you live your life in a coma
You're never awake
If you'd open your eyes then maybe
You'd see what's at stake
You're sleeping, you're sleeping
You make a lot of money and
You live in a mansion
And pretty much got everything that
You could ever imagine
But, you feel like even though you
Got everything in the world you got nothing
So what you do then is
You start going backwards
You runnin' in a direction
And you lookin' for something that isn't real
And all you know is that
You just gotta have it
What you're doin' is sleepin'
And thinking that you're awake and you're not
And the problem is that you
Don't know what you're after
So you put everything that you
Have into what you do
Hoping that one day maybe you don't
Have to feel like you're empty
But as you get older a lot of
Weight on your shoulders is getting heavy
Then you look back and you
Start to regret things you only get one life
And every time you lookin' at yours
You feel like everything you have is a waste!
And the problem and the reason you could
Never fill a hole in your life
Is because you were never awake
You spend your life in a
Dream that you can't escape
'Cause you live your life in a coma
You're never awake
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
You wake up in the morning
But, you feel like you never got
Up and go to work
And you feelin' like you ain't got a purpose
And you tryna get motivated but everything
You do turns into a mess
Like you ain't nothing but worthless
And, yo, you look around
A lot of these other people you lookin' at
To you, you describe as perfect
So you point a finger at God and
Tell Him to do His job
And fix ya life up 'cause nothin' is workin'!
And you will try to hide it and
Make it seem like it's nothin'
But really you feel like everything
Is crashin' around you
And you developed a problem in
Trusting in other people
Which later became an issue that
Would mentally pound you!
You only get one life
But every time you lookin' at yours you feel
Like all you ever see are mistakes
And the problem and the reason you
Could never move forward in life
Is because you were never awake! Wake up
You spend your life in a
Dream that you can't escape
'Cause you live your life in a coma
You're never awake
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
You spend your life in a
Dream that you can't escape
'Cause you live your life in a coma
You're never awake
Dream that you can't escape
'Cause you live your life in a coma
You're never awake
If you'd open your eyes then maybe
You'd see what's at stake
You're sleeping, you're sleeping
You make a lot of money and
You live in a mansion
And pretty much got everything that
You could ever imagine
But, you feel like even though you
Got everything in the world you got nothing
So what you do then is
You start going backwards
You runnin' in a direction
And you lookin' for something that isn't real
And all you know is that
You just gotta have it
What you're doin' is sleepin'
And thinking that you're awake and you're not
And the problem is that you
Don't know what you're after
So you put everything that you

You spend your life in a

'Cause you live your life in a coma
You're never awake
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!

'Cause you live your life in a coma
You're never awake
