Awake Lyrics

Haven't seen him since July

I guess the fireworks they left

Went through summer heartbreak

I can't do that all again

I ain't trynna hate

What would it take to understand

Know that there's a boss ass woman

Behind every boss ass man

He borrowed my heart and

He returned it broke to me

Exchanged it in for his

So done carrying his B

I'm so done with staying up

And losing so much sleep

And writing songs about the man

Sleeping on a dream

Got to wake up, wake up

Stop wasting my time

I got a full day ahead

And I stay on the grind

Although he left, I'm blessed

Done chasing Mr. Right

I'd rather be the one right in my life

And I'm like

Okay, okay, okay

Right now I'm staying true to

My ways, my ways, my ways

Remember who I was

Before all of the pain

Before I carried all his weight

Yeah

And I'm like

Okay, okay, okay

I'm just so done with

Hearing your name, your name, your name

Dreamed that you could be my Big Sean to Jhene

Couldn't be Twenty88

But I'm awake now

And I need features

I've been eager

Wanna step in the booth

These waves have been getting deeper

Feel prone to sink very soon

I gotta practice my freestyle

Trying to swim to my roots

Produce my own songs and lyrics

I don't just sing to these tunes

But these beats on YouTube

Set a baseline

Used to

Be all acapella

Downplayed my talent

Wrote bars in this cella

Drinkin up all of this tea

He said that we could be together

Broke my heart at 18

Gaslighted me like Cinderella

And I'm like

Okay, okay, okay

Right now I'm staying true to

My ways, my ways, my ways

Remember who I was

Before all of the pain

Before I carried all his weight

Yeah

And I'm like

Okay, okay, okay

I'm just so done with

Hearing your name, your name, your name

Dreamed that you could be my Big Sean to Jhene

Couldn't be Twenty88

But I'm awake now

I'm awake, I'm awake now

I'm awake, I'm awake now

I'm awake, I'm awake now, yeah

I'm awake, I'm awake now
