Lyrics
Peace to the Gods
The true and living
With the clearest vision
The chosen ones who chose themselves
Suntruth
And I won't sleep no more
I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
And I won't sleep no more
I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
Gleam in my eye
Holding my gun
Feeling bold inside
Mark, get set, run it
Tryna fill this hole inside
Devils told a lie
Had me convinced
That being a man
Was to get on some ol gangsta shit
So through the bars I've burned
In his Hell on earth
But through my scars
I've learned to build up self-worth
Though, pray tell
How can a man heal in Hell
Fighting for his life
Pray they don't seal the well
The prey they don't see well
Caught lacking by the jackals
And I ain't gon' cap, duke
In the past I might of jacked you, too
But that's in the past
And I'm a changed man
And now I'm thinking long range
I got a whole new game plan
And if you only do the same
You get more of the same man
Raise your frequency
Let's take a brain scan
Want to Make a difference
Be different, see differently
I had an Epiphany
Got the Knowledge of Self
And from the bondage it lifted me
Now I won't sleep no more
I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
Now I won't sleep no more
I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
Ancestral spirits looking over my shoulders
Whispering words of Wisdom
Asking me to push forward
Throughout the trials and tribulations
Slavery, suffering, and death
I'm empowered by their strength
That I inhale through each breath
In my mind's recess
I reach depths unknown
And, Lo, I struck Gold
Found the Philosopher's Stone
Your Karma's your own
I paid for mine in the dark
Swimming with sharks
Majored in the Criminal Arts
See, I played that part
But that's not the shape of my heart
Change up my thoughts
A Call of Duty
I had to respawn
But life is like a game of dice
Seldom though
Do you have a chance to play it twice
So make sure you play em right
No ass-betting
Understand your Culture
Roll with God
It's I Self Lord and Master, like Farad
I stood on the front lines
Of a spiritual war
And I'm still here ten toes
I build with the Gods
I said I stood on the front lines
Of a spiritual war
And I'm still here ten toes
I build with the Gods
And I won't sleep no more
I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
And I won't sleep no more
I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
And I won't sleep no more
I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
I'm wide awoke, wide awoke
