Young Gliss - Awake lyrics

[Hook:] I finally see the beauty of everything And my imagination gives me wings here With every breath that I take, that's when they flap Yeah, I feel it I'm awake now I feel it I'm awake, how much longer will it take Now, now (now, now, now) [Young Gliss] I was raised by a single mother, always had my back though Pops was around but he never could connect so I was on my own, looking for that third option That was always my thoughts while we're hot boxing Just me and my n***as reminiscing about the old times Like how the hood stick together through hard times How the hood could take you as a body here From walking such a thing line while we're here Living life so close to d**h Could leave you emotionless until there's nothing left If you let it, that sh** will bring you under But you can use it just to make you stronger 'Cause struggle is what's going to feed your hunger [And no matter?] how it shows When you come from the bottom, they think you can't grow Sometimes I close my eyes and just let it go 'Cause we're dealing with feelings that they'll never know [Hook:] [Verse 2: Shane Chris] I grew up, doing a lot of stuff, marijuana not enough I had it good, it s**s if you had it rough Can you find her hard to love, Our special place is over stars above With pearly gates, a feast awaits that's where I'll meet my love You know those stories that everyone thinks are made up, they're real Straight up, and I never gave in or gave up If you got something to say you might as well speak up Speed up, past the speed of life Nothing can keep up, I reach up, and grab the mic ripping the beats up That's something lite, you know music is my life I don't abuse you like a narcotic, I do this 'cause it's right And everyone knows that I'm white, but I don't give a f** They treat me like their brother, and say man grab a cup It's alright [Hook:]
