Lyrics Wake Up - Derek Minor

Wake Up

Yeah, a new year, new me, and all that
You know what I’m saying
Ain’t really no smoker that’s just how I’m feeling right now
You feel me?
Yeah, yeah
Yeah 2019 I’m free, no more slaving me (Nah)
Dirt all on my cleats (My cleats), I run through these beats (These beats)
I’ve been living too low key, never mind, don’t mind me (Don't mind me)
I don’t want no glory, cut my check and let me leave
I woke up, the plan in motion I sleep with both eyes open
I got the glow I’m focused, I see your plan and you looking for change (Looking
for change yeah)
I found a way to call on His name (I found a way, I found a way)
I turned from my ways and you do the same (You do the same)
They say I’m outta my mind, I get it all of the time
I live a life that’s sublime since I been dodging a lot
Ain’t no more begging we off that (Off that)
Upliftin' sistas no killing our brothers they hatin' the coonin' we off that
(Off that)
Gaining the world, dying in vain we off that
We off that
Ooh, yeah I know you look like Christ (Like Christ)
I feel alive, I feel alive
Wake up, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Wake up, yeah
Wake up, yeah
Wake up, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Wake up, yeah
Wake up, yeah
Wake up, yeah
Wake up, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I remember last December that I might just end it all
I had just got off a tour full of arenas in the Fall
They had told me I keep going I could be the next Deval
I almost ate the fruit of Adam, I was bout' to take the fall
Switched the direction accomplished
Now I got executives calling
The kings and the kingdoms not drawing
Maybe they empire falling
I had to look at myself, maybe my God money or wealth
Is supposed to be all, I’m cool with this Benz and all
I’m cool with this Gucci that rep on my drawers (Woo)
But what is it worth, this luxury God could turn to a hearse (Yeah)
If I’m overly medicated driving off of the road when I swerve
I guess what I’m saying is I am the problem
I’m out here battling me and you out here battling you
Just look in the mirror for proof
Ooh, yeah I know you look like Christ (Like Christ)
I feel alive, I feel alive
Wake up, yeah
Wake up, yeah
Wake up, yeah
Wake up, yeah
Wake up, yeah
Wake up, yeah
Wake up, yeah
Wake up, yeah
