(Hook)
It's another dawn, it's a new day, gotta wake up, gotta get paid
It's another dawn, it's a new day, gotta wake up, gotta get paid
It's another dawn, it's a new day, gotta wake up, gotta get paid
(Verse 1)
Woke up in the morning, out blessed feeling fresh, at my best
Gotta send prayers to the Lord while stressed
And my quest got me in between living a dream
Hoping to fulfil promises before I'm deceased
Carry all my fury whilst raised in the belly of the beast, what's peacе?
We got blood stains, in every cornеr of the street
I'm questioning reality whilst these demons try to haunt my dreams
Now do I live a live surrounded with risks?
Or cold regrets letting life put me to the edge?
I'm truly blessed, embodies with God's gift, blossomed since we were kids, seen glimpses of making it
It's a new dawn, new day, I gotta survive in this world full of craze, God bless our souls to the dying days, from the cradle to the grave
I gotta get paid
(Hook)
It's another dawn, it's a new day, gotta wake up, gotta get paid
It's another dawn, it's a new day, gotta wake up, gotta get paid
It's another dawn, it's a new day, gotta wake up, gotta get paid
(Verse 2)
Living life as a sinner, balling as a winner
Living everyday like it's the beginning, fulling, till time's finished
Dreams of getting paid, it's like, looking back, words, work, rhymes
Ageing like fine wine
Look around these blind eyes, feared to live, scared to die
Every new dawn is a point to thrive
I'm 17, chasing dreams, avoiding traps in the street, but ashamed, lack connectivity to our brains
Made some mistakes, I had to retrace, erasing to shape
Rectify a path to make way, sometimes
I try too hard to find what I'm looking for
Every minute banging on the door, on the floor, looking to plead
Hoping these angels protecting me, fifty feet deep
Release my fury before the ground swallows the evilness in the street, complicated thoughts, drowning in shadow, numb from my figure till I find my power
(Hook)
It's another dawn, it's a new day, gotta wake up, gotta get paid
It's another dawn, it's a new day, gotta wake up, gotta get paid
It's another dawn, it's a new day, gotta wake up, gotta get paid
[Prelude]
Ain't nobody telling where we gonna be next year (you know), when we ride to the very end...yeah, where will I be this time next year, will I survive or die, or break through throughout the years?
(Verse 2)
Days of grey clouds and rain, soaking in the pain
Shedding tears from the hard knocks, milking moments up top
Life, a rollercoaster it doesn't stop, writing rhymes, entertaining ears, listen closely to a conflicted soul
This cruel place can make a good man feel evil, whilst greed and breed continues to kill my people
Feeling hot in a cold world as I observe, to see who's concerned
Take a moment to look around, appreciate and change, it's a new day, when the sun rise its our time, we gone shine
Represent to the fullest, young black males shoot knowledge not bullets, put down the weapons, pick up a booklet
Do your parents proud, and love who you are
Every brother is a star
(Hook)
It's another dawn, it's a new day, gotta wake up, gotta get paid
It's another dawn, it's a new day, gotta wake up, gotta get paid
It's another dawn, it's a new day, gotta wake up, gotta get paid
