Wake Up Songtext
von Tee Grizzley feat. Chance the Rapper

Want to hear all their preaching, man, look
It′s a difference between preaching and speaking from experience (we give 'em hope)
We the one′s moving around them trenches man (we give 'em hope)
I got them niggas woke, man (we give 'em hope)
I give them niggas hope, man (we are the hope)
Make sure you tell them (tell ′em)

Wake up (wake up), wake up, pray up (pray up), stay up
Wake up (wake up), wake up, pray up (pray up), stay up
Wake up (wake up), wake up, pray up (pray up), stay up
Wake up (oh), pray up (oh)
Motivate the trenches (motivate the trenches)
We got ′em woke (we got 'em woke)
Street niggas winnin′ (street niggas winnin')
We give ′em hope (we give 'em hope)
Motivate the trenches (motivate the trenches)
We got ′em woke (we got 'em woke)
Street niggas winnin' (street niggas winnin′)
We give ′em hope (we give 'em hope)


We live in the days where niggas do shit without even thinking about it (thinking about it)
But who am I to talk? Blew 50k without thinking about it (thinking about it)
Beefin′ with niggas about shit so stupid, we shouldn't be beefing about it
If you in high school, I encourage you, go try to make it to college (go try to make it)

Got niggas in prison
Your body locked up, don′t let your mind be
Daydream, make a plan, write it out, don't forget that your mind free
Don′t let that wasted time be a waste of time, that's how niggas get back in chains
Bro only 5'8" but he run up and bang on you like he ′Bron James

Fuckin′ up the money, steady buying chains (buying chains)
But this what I wanted
Bust down Rollie, AP, shit feel good and look good, don't it?
I got the ball, got hit, fumbled
Picked it back up, scored six on ′em
Did a field goal with the Louis kicks on 'em
Said I would lose, got the win on ′em like


Wake up (wake up), wake up, pray up (pray up), stay up
Wake up (wake up), wake up, pray up (pray up), stay up
Wake up (wake up), wake up, pray up (pray up), stay up
Wake up (oh), pray up (oh)
Motivate the trenches (motivate the trenches)
We got 'em woke (we got ′em woke)
Street niggas winnin' (street niggas winnin')
We give ′em hope (we give ′em hope)
Motivate the trenches (motivate the trenches)
We got 'em woke (we got ′em woke)
Street niggas winnin' (street niggas winnin′)
We give 'em hope (we give ′em hope)

I'm in the trenches (I'm in the trenches)
I give ′em hope (hope, hope)
I get ′em books (I get 'em books)
I get ′em coats (coats, coats)
They fuck with the kid (fuck with the kid)
I'm the adult
Bitch, I′m the father figure, nigga the coach

Fuck a result, I want revolt
You want the bow ties, well, you need a co-sign
And I'm at your bowtie, since you let Bettie Jones die
Gotta go hit up COPA, then I go hit the folks (huh)
Then I go hit up Sosa, gotta hitcha from both sides

Get the Zulu and Xhosa and I gotta ride shotgun
Ain′t no fun when you ghost ride, tell the mayor I'm gon' slide
And the city my co-pilot, nothin′ but a lil′ more mileage
You don't want the type of smoke I lift (huh! Huh!)
Shake this bitch open with both eyelids

Wake up (wake up), wake up, pray up (pray up), stay up
Wake up (wake up), wake up, pray up (pray up), stay up
Wake up (wake up), wake up, pray up (pray up), stay up
Wake up (oh), pray up (oh)
Motivate the trenches (motivate the trenches)
We got ′em woke (we got 'em woke)
Street niggas winnin′ (street niggas winnin')
We give ′em hope (we give 'em hope)
Motivate the trenches (motivate the trenches)
We got 'em woke (we got ′em woke)
Street niggas winnin′ (street niggas winnin')
We give ′em hope (we give 'em hope)
