The Alarm(Explicit) - Big K.R.I.T.

They could call you the greatest
So you pay your bills but you barely made it?
That it's all on your shoulders
And everything would seem clear if you stayed sober?
That your heart is really in it
When you know most these folks ain't impressed with your vision?
That this pep talk
Will keep you in top form when so many fell off?
That the world feels your pain?
It's kill or be killed, can you keep what you claimed?
That you really can sustain
This lifestyle, Sky Miles, ballin' in the chains?
That these n*ggas really f*ck with you?
When you hit rock bottom, look how many stuck with you
That the devil's all around?
If he knocking at your door, have strength to turn him down
They can barely hear the real sh*t?
In a world of fantasies, can you be a realist?
That the governments concealing
Their true intentions, apprehending those that won't be pillaged?
That doing right will make you richer?
And just because you paid these white folks still won't call you nigger?
That you can sacrifice it all
When the ball's in your court and your time has been called?
That God will forgive you?
For those times that you didn't let Him steer you?
For those times that you up and lost faith
Cause you swore He couldn't hear you and nothing ever changed?
That screaming out His name
When you lost your best friend is what really helped the pain?
That you never loved fame
And you wouldn't miss a dime if you lost it all today?
Wake up Wake up
Wake up Wake up
