Slumber

[Chorus: Mick Jenkins & Sean Deaux]

And tell your niggas

“Wake up, wake up, wake up, we can’t sleep too long,”

Way too long

Ain’t no TLC, boy, we can’t creep too long

Creep too long

We finna put you on some shit though

Shit though

THEMpeople make you wanna get low

But tell em

“Wake up, wake up, wake up, we can’t sleep too long"

Wake up, wake up

We got bread to break up, we can’t be too long

Can’t sleep too long

We finna put you on some shit though

THEMpeople make you wanna get low

(Get low)

[Verse 1: Mick Jenkins]

Brush you teeth after the wake and bake

Drink more water, watch your fake intake

Don’t ever be scare to make mistakes, thats how you grow

And avoidin’ the same mistakes you made is how you know

You movin’ forward, its bout progressin’, I’m learnin’ lessons

Most of this shit is really perception, its no perspective

Most of my niggas is the exception, the water keep us reflective

Thats why I gotta repeat it, pearls of wisdom repeated

I’m chiefin’ with people that I can trust, rolling, burning,  ’til they depleted

Leave the ashes its dust

They sayin’ cash is a must, I beg to differ

I take the little dipper, as long as the ladle full

I wanted to be an actor but I couldn’t play the fool at all

Miseducated, could give a fuck about no school of thought, if you hate it

Food for thought, regurgitatin’ what they played it for me

Cookin’ faded, look what we created, then we catered for free

[Chorus: Mick Jenkins & Sean Deaux]

And tell your niggas

“Wake up, wake up, wake up, we can’t sleep too long,”

Way too long

Ain’t no TLC, boy, we can’t creep too long

Creep too long

We finna put you on some shit though

Shit though

THEMpeople make you wanna get low

But tell em

“Wake up, wake up, wake up, we can’t sleep too long"

Wake up, wake up

We got bread to break up, we can’t be too long

Can’t sleep too long

We finna put you on some shit though

THEMpeople make you wanna get low

(Get low)

[Verse 2: Saba]

Wake up, woke up to another 24

Some my brothers still in slumber, thank the lord

We was just dreamin’ about makin’ it easier

The little things in life, you know the tedious

Well oh he was teachin’ us, he workin’ while the goonies hate

Real nigga in the same thing too they straight

I can’t complain I was able when they was painin

Ain’t had cable but had a radio and a brain

Put two and two together in the ghetto

And thats how I came up off my hoover thought a lil not

Mick even brought the water, I swear its a fuckin’ potluck

Give us this day our daily bread and thats more than a dollar bill

Had to cope with a lot of bull but ain't fold cuz I’m smart again

Look, they no longer recognize you

You once did a show iced tonic and didn’t impress anybody

Now look at you, you acquire, your pussy rate has sky-rocketed

You came a long way since high school, you stepped out of your comfort zone

[Outro: Sean Deaux]

I think I used to sleep so long, cause I ain't ever want to stop dreamin'

Count my blessings like sheep, this real life just won’t let me be

Wake up, wake up

Wake up, wake up, it’s time to wake up my niggas

Wake up, wake up

Wake up, wake up, it’s time to wake up, right now

I think I used to try too hard, cause now everything comes easy

Open your eyes and trust yourself, and let the world see who you are

Its all yours

Its all yours

Its all yours
