Wake Up

Ride with me
Walk a block with me
Pull a heist with me
Represent with me
Ride with me
Walk a block with me
Pull a heist with me
Represent

When I wake up in the morning
When I get up out of my bed
At all times I remain a hustler
At all times I be chasin my bread
Since this one's for my people
I'ma make sure you hear what I said
Daddy say speak loud and clearly
Daddy say aim for the head
I think we all too cool to lose it
I say we all stay leveled instead
I say still we tame the hookers
I know we still eluding them feds
We made this one for the negros
And for the caucasians who care
They say they treat us like we equal
I say they treat us like we just don't care

When I wake up in the morning
When I get up out my bed
I will always be a hustler
I will always chase my bread
Since this one's for my people
I'ma make sure you hear what I said
I'm gon' speak so loud and clearly
I'm gon' aim straight for your head

I wake up late but still got currency dreams
Snooze button, yo I'm tryin to sleep
I got bills and the ends ain't been tryin to meet
So I'm pressed for cash and I'm outta my league
You see, times ain't the greatest and I ain't Ali
So my hours are 9-to-5 and my job's the streets
I'm in a low position tryin to hold these missions
Crenshaw and Exposition fillin holiday wishes
We block the west at 'em, in the spot we sho' had 'em
Rallies on Manchester, Inglewood on Saturday
Days turn to night, Shay'd always been the type
To show love to those who I'm always doin right with

When I wake up in the morning
When I get up out my bed
I will always be a hustler
I will always chase my bread
Since this one's for my people
I'ma make sure you hear what I said
I'm gon' speak so loud and clearly
I'm gon' aim straight for your head

Yo, it don't matter where you from, not knowin how where you been
Can't go to sleep a child and expect to wake a man
Yo, life is a lesson, niggas who don't study end up failin tests
And blame it on me, but see, Shy's only is what he claimin to be
A real quiet motherfucker with his heart in the streets
Heart in these beats, flows sell a lot in a week
So even Billboard couldn't chart my highest of peak
I'm with the ranks so you knowin what they sayin of me
I'm impressed how many people end up hatin on me
Like a disease, Shay hit 'em with a new vaccine
I leave 'em comatose, fallin asleep

When I wake up in the morning
When I get up out my bed
I will always be a hustler
I will always chase my bread
Since this one's for my people
I'ma make sure you hear what I said
I'm gon' speak so loud and clearly
I'm gon' aim straight for your head
