Ledisi Wake Up (feat. Sa-roc)
There is so much we complain about
Today, tomorrow, it's not promised
We should be grateful
It's time to wake up
So much you wanna get done, oh
Here comes another setback, oh
One thing after another, oh
And you're getting in your own way
Crying, complaining, won't make it better
You just got to get out your head
You gotta get up and don't look back
It's time to wake up
Stand up, wear your crown
Stay up
Whatever goes can't come back around
Wake up
Look up, don't look down
Stay up
Stay up high, they gotta see you now
Wake up
Why you standing round? What you waiting for?
You're the key
You choose to do it your way, making your own fate
Oh, and don't you blame the world, oh no
Mmh, and if you never give it a go, I know 'cause
That person used to be me
Until I finally opened my eyes
It's time to wake up
Stand up, wear your crown
(Wear your crown)
Stay up
Whatever goes can't come back around
(Can't come around here no more)
Wake up
Look up, don't look down
(Ooh, yeah)
Stay up
Stay up high, they gotta see you now
Wake up
They say the headwear, the crown is the heaviest yet
But I ain't never have five medals or embezzled baguette
I was the last born Saiyan to an empire, regret
Him with a armor plate of steel and tears outline on the crest
What better place with no boys and a toy store getting sacked?
War and peace fighting for prime time control of this set
So get a sense, why's the luxury gone to the lucky as it get
And the odds were never in our favor so we would step with the debt
But afford to come a long way from dark days and lost hope
They told me all it takes is one little spark [?]
So I stay looking for the light, keep them watching [?]
Till my ambition catching fire like a well-aimed [?]
[?] everywhere and come with a little skin in the game
My scar tissue will roll map through the harsh terrain
But I never got the lesson [?] calls refrain
Made the old me no match for the warrior that I became, right
Stand up, wear your crown
(You've got to stand up, yeah)
Stay up
Whatever goes can't come back around
(Can't come back here no more)
Wake up
Look up, don't look down
(Don't you look down, oh)
Stay up
Stay up high, they gotta see you now
(Stay up)
Wake up
