Wake Up
August Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Я просыпаюсь ночью, снова видел сон (е)
Еду, V12 и я еду за горизонт (о)
Деньги с неба и я закрываю зонт (о)
Но ущипнул себя и говорю им стоп (стоп)

Я хочу в жизни, да, запрыгнуть в эту lambo
Я хочу прыгнуть выше головы, на небо
Ты спрашиваешь что со мной не так, но все нормально

Я говорил с деньгами, говорю им делать сальто

Воу - мешаю Faygo со льдом
Просыпаюсь ночью, чтобы деньги делать днем
Воу - очередной брэйншторм
365 на мне свэг на целый год
Я на свободе до сих пор, на мне удачи на джекпот
Если я курю с гэнгом gas на нас дерьма на целый корт
Бро не качался, но он посадил ее жопу на спорт
Бро собирает season-харвест, но он растил аутдор

Я проснулся, ты не знаешь сколько время?
Я проснулся, ты не знаешь какой сейчас год?
Не могу уснуть, это все из-за тебя
Но я вышел из сна лучшим, чем я был до

Я просыпаюсь ночью, снова видел сон (е)
Еду, V12 и я еду за горизонт (о)
Деньги с неба и я закрываю зонт (о)
Но ущипнул себя и говорю им стоп (стоп)

Я хочу в жизни, да, запрыгнуть в эту lambo
Я хочу прыгнуть выше головы, на небо
Ты спрашиваешь что со мной не так, но все нормально
Я говорил с деньгами, говорю им делать сальто

Я кидаю транк, мешаю его с алко (о)
Мешаю с faygo и я пью все это залпом (окей)
Голодный парень получает свое тако (е)
Мешают мысли о том, что я сделал с тобой (е-о)
Без сна пятый день, я вижу сны как Сальвадор
Почувствовал это, еще когда был далеко
Иду на свет, я иду через этот коридор
Багровый океан и этот codeine в мою кровь
Я не забираю ее, если она не bad bitch
Еду на юго-запад, на мне эти голубые птички

Два года, как дропаут, но я кидаю тем людям спич
Мое сердце изо льда, я пробудился будто король-лич
