Hey yo I woke up this morning feeling like a new man you are This song sings itself, I ain’t say a word No more wasting my time in this world I gotta get that gwap, I gotta make this work
Woke up this morning knowing I’mma shine Yo I woke up this morning knowing I believe Yo I woke up this morning knowing who I am Yo I woke up this morning a new man
[Verse 1]
Yo I wake up every morning, it’s raining but sun’s shining I’m fine and my attitude on life reflects how I’m rhyming, I’m climbing Trying to be better, the music my only endeavour But at times I feel weak like I’m under the weather Find myself telling myself I can do it At the same time I question my aspirations in music It’s all like a hallucination every rapper to do it Get a little shine and they think there ain’t nothing to it I’m guilty myself for feeling the same way But then I analyze my favourite record the same day And understand I got a long way to go before I’ll be real I can finally afford to purchase the house on the hill Two car garage studios full of analog gear Rec room, hot tub, steak, and expensive beer I know I’m dreaming but I woke up this morning with hope Knowing if I do myself there ain’t no way that I can choke
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Yo I first approached this game with ambition to stay street I could never walk the shoes of Tru-Life or Mobb Deep I ain’t saying I ain’t real, just saying that ain’t me And it took a long time to decipher who I be Rappers talking how they killing and shit they ain’t never seen The ? to anybody who purchasing their CD I’m just trying to stay positive, teach the kids we can conquer this Thing we call life where the struggle is dominant And I ain’t trying to preach, I’m trying to speak an opinion If you ain’t feeling my perspective then you ain’t gotta listen But listen, if I can leave you with something let be known You gotta believe in yourself, do yourself to hold your own I’m trying to put it to practice and make my moms proud Independently tour the world and reach every crowd I know I’m dreaming but I woke up this morning with hope Knowing if I do myself there ain’t no way that I can choke
