[Verse 1]
Yeah, I’m nothing short of a miracle
Reality rap music is in your stereo
If winner’s eat a fresh bowl of Wheaties or some Cheerios
It’s gonna take a whole lot more than some cereal
Yeah, to compete with a phoenix
I rise from my own ashes, if it’s heat nigga bring it
100 % solid and discrete and that’s meaning
I’m one of the missing pieces that the street’s really needing
Cut from a cloth, most of you niggas have not worn
Come from an era, most of you niggas were not born
I'm from the place, most of you niggas cannot soar
Playing a game, where all of you niggas have not scored
The game getting boring, admit to that
It won’t take a rocket scientist to admit to that
Every real nigga listening can admit the fact
That the industry sleeping on me, I’ma just sit back and say
[Hook]
Wake up, time to rise and shine
Go on and get to stretch on and clear your mind
Wipe the cold from your eye, let your ears reflect
Time to focus on a nigga you ain’t hearing yet
I’m saying
Wake up, time to rise and shine
Go on and get your stretch on and clear your mind
Wipe the cold from your eye, let your ears reflect
Time to focus on a nigga you ain’t hearing yet
I’m saying
[Verse 2]
2 time MVP, Strange Music INC
Top 3, independent record label, I am he
World respected from the state of Maryland, to Wyoming
West Coast to down south, you better keep your eye on me
Yeah I’m the best you never heard about
From a small city that murder you for the murder clout
Love you then hate you, especially if you heard about
Word around the industry, niggas is getting nervous now
Wanna know my motives, learned about my resume
Now they wanna politic, don’t want me to delegate
Conditions of the state hip-hop is in to the present day
They ain’t got a choice, I’m here now and finna set 'em straight
Yeah, they prolly hate I’m on the radar
'Cause now they gotta deal away with skinny jeans and gay bars
Ha, and by bars I mean rapping
I’m pulling back the covers on those who’ve been napping, yelling
[Hook]
Wake up, time to rise and shine
Go on and get to stretch on and clear your mind
Wipe the cold from your eye, let your ears reflect
Time to focus on a nigga you ain’t hearing yet
I’m saying
Wake up, time to rise and shine
Go on and get your stretch on and clear your mind
Wipe the cold from your eye, let your ears reflect
Time to focus on a nigga you ain’t hearing yet
I’m saying
[Verse 3]
The closest to Pac you gon get and you know it
The closest your block is gon get to a poet
Stay close to your watch
'Cause time will tell how I show to peep the weakness in this rap game again and sew it
I’m the last of a dying breed, father forgive me
In the presence of my enemies I'll swallow 'em simply as the last supper
Knowing Judas’ over my shoulder
It’s time to alleviate, I’m excluding you motherfuckers
I do this 'cause I’m going on the limb
For my niggas in the hood or locked down in the pen
And this will be the last time you ever can begin
With the start of something new
'Cause I expropriate, expropriate, expropriate the trend
Yeah, I got a message for the rap game
I’m the best thing smoking since the crack came
Yeah, and so you're knowing just who said it
