Songs Title:wake up[00:00:01]
They say he was a monster from birth so[00:00:02]
F**k it I'll just a lean warn-os them hoes[00:00:04]
I suppose O took on the street life[00:00:05]
Even though my mother told me I could be otherwise[00:00:07]
Wasn't the school type I was too cool[00:00:09]
My agenda wasn't general education nigga[00:00:12]
Generalizing Obie's expectations[00:00:15]
It was like a cucoo in twenty-twos[00:00:18]
Bad news my nigga pass the brew[00:00:20]
Cause in a week we be pouring a glass for you[00:00:22]
So rapidly homies become causualties[00:00:26]
We was just playing Madden[00:00:27]
Now a nigga sad for his family that's how it happens[00:00:28]
Dudes get blasted another casket[00:00:33]
Another child becomes a fatherless bastard[00:00:35]
Make a nigga wanna grab this rachet[00:00:38]
It's so tragic and Obie can't get past it[00:00:41]
And you wonder why a nigga'll flash it[00:00:43]
Just to show these demons that I ain't having it[00:00:45]
Put 'em beneathe the grass in a flash[00:00:48]
Homie I'm from the craft[00:00:49]
And to make it where I'm at that's called Soldierism[00:00:51]
Real niggaz notice em they wanna flow with 'em[00:00:54]
Wanna do major shows with 'em[00:00:57]
Get the f**k out the ghetto wit 'em[00:01:01]
Heavy metal leave a nigga twisted don't fret[00:01:03]
This is the set we live in[00:01:06]
But I ain't crying or whining about my enviornment[00:01:08]
Even though black folk is dying constant[00:01:09]
Niggaz'll shoot you unconscious[00:01:13]
Wit no conscience until you lose conscience[00:01:17]
Conscious and pompous white folk think I'm just rhyming[00:01:20]
Just designing lines just for the sake of shining[00:01:24]
Like I just speak violent applying to the business I'm in[00:01:27]
Rewind and find him in a dirty ass hood with no sight of climbing[00:01:31]
Moving on up was just The Jeffersons[00:01:35]
Rest of us watching the tube got less then them[00:01:37]
So why you vexing him Why you stretching him out [00:01:41]
He got the weapon all because his whereabouts[00:01:43]
Born and raised mental slaves[00:01:45]
And I don't see change before I'm seeing the grave[00:01:47]
All I see is my homies corpse decay[00:01:51]
Crying at his wake can't recognize his face[00:01:53]
Face it you not identifying with me[00:01:55]
My identity distorts ya visibility[00:01:58]
So you can't see me peep what he's achieving[00:01:59]
You recieve information from TV[00:02:03]
I'm in the hood I live it you read about it[00:02:07]
Rest in peace Peezy[00:02:09]
Please believe Obie eyes've seen The Wire[00:02:10]
Prior to what you seeing on the screen[00:02:13]
I done been in and out of the bing[00:02:16]
Lost niggaz to unfortunate things[00:02:18]
That's why praise the Lord I'm still on the scene[00:02:19]
Praise the Creator who made human beings[00:02:23]
Just for creating a nigga like me[00:02:26]
A nigga that put the umph in G yeah[00:02:28]
Wake up[00:02:30]
I try to reach out but you won't[00:02:32]
Wake up[00:02:34]
My brothers and sisters we got to[00:02:34]
Wake up[00:02:36]
'Fore you stuck in the system and then ya[00:02:37]
Wake up[00:02:39]
Reality hits ya before you can[00:02:39]
Wake up[00:02:41]
