Dezirae Schalice - Wake Up Lyrics

"Gotta get it in, gotta get... whatever
IG verified, what could be better
Every day makin money moves
Writin catchy tunes
Hustlin hella grooves"
Shit aint even clever

Is that really all we think about
Lovin money over bitches
Nigga shut ya mouth
Babies dying every day in Chicago's south
And f*ckin hoes is all f*ckin we think about

I tune in into the news just to tune it out
Cuz it makes me sick
But we learn to blow it over maybe too quick
Hey, we learn to blow it over too quick
Oh

Same story on the news, different day
Another one of ours is at the pearly gates
After a time desensitized
Demoralized, immobilized
And we're... generalized

But we choose not to see it
We turn a blind eye so we can disbelieve it
In our ears we can hear mommas "Don't shoot!"
We could address but we got shit to do

"Gotta get it in, gotta get... whatever
IG verified, now what could be better
Every day makin money moves
Writin catchy tunes
Hustlin hella grooves"
Shit aint even clever

When being woke comes down to the wire
But this injustice don't tire
When we have spent our little bit of fight
It's easier to look to that white light like
Woah

Hustlers never sleep but
Somehow you still ain't woke
You're too concerned with the smoke and the stroke and
Not being broke and
Being outspoken

Instead we'll dream all day
Dream that pain away
Them sufferin babes won't know
We chose to let them go

Gotta get it in, gotta get... whatever
IG verified, what could be better
Every day makin money moves

Shit aint even clever
