awaken
• Written by daboyhenry
Verse 1:
Eyes wide open, but I'm still in a dream
Caught up in this world, it's not what it seems
Ain't no sunshine, just a constant night
Tryna find some peace, but it's outta sight
I'm lost in this maze, feeling so alone
My heart is heavy, but it's made of stone
This city's a jungle, and I'm just a prey
But I won't back down, I'm here to stay
Chorus:
Awaken, awaken, from this endless slumber
Gotta fight for my life, gotta break from this slumber
No more hiding, no more fear
Gonna rise up, and make it clear
Verse 2:
Every night, I hear the sound of sirens
Another victim, another soul they're takin'
Gotta keep my head down, stay outta sight
But my mind's racing, can't sleep at night
I see the pain, I feel the hurt
It's time to speak up, it's time to assert
Gonna use my voice, gonna make a change
No more silence, we gotta arrange
Chorus:
Awaken, awaken, from this endless slumber
Gotta fight for my life, gotta break from this slumber
No more hiding, no more fear
Gonna rise up, and make it clear
Verse 3:
They tryna bring me down, but I won't fall
Gonna stand my ground, gonna break through this wall
The world's so cold, but I'm on fire
Gonna keep burning, gonna rise up higher
I see the light, shining in the dark
A beacon of hope, in this world so stark
Gonna follow it, it's my only guide
Gonna break free, from this side
Chorus:
Awaken, awaken, from this endless slumber
Gotta fight for my life, gotta break from this slumber
No more hiding, no more fear
Gonna rise up, and make it clear
Outro:
I won't be silenced, I won't be ignored
Gonna break these chains, gonna soar
This is my awakening, my time to shine
Gonna leave my mark, in this dark cinematic rhyme.
