dawn
D.A.W.N Lyrics

We've come so far
We've made a lot of progress and achieved a lot

To not be who we are
But we're not being true to ourselves

And it seems to me
From my perspective

If people see us badly
If people have a negative view of us

Then they're wrong
Their opinion is incorrect

And So I'll stand strong
I will remain resolute

And fight for the right to stand right up to all
And defend my right to be myself

All of those who try
Anyone who makes an attempt

To criticize and say
To find fault and express it

Say that I ain't lit when I still try anyway
Claim that I am not good even though I keep working hard

It'll be any day now that's what I always say
I believe it will happen soon

But its not everyday that I get up so great
But I don't feel great every day

It's not everyday that I can get up right
I don't always start the day feeling positive

I got night by my side but sometimes darkness tries
I have the night to keep me company, but sometimes I struggle with negativity

To overcloud my light but on the ground I still fight
My emotions can bring me down, but I keep pushing forward

Spit up blood and kick up stuff to wipe off the dust
Metaphorically speaking, I am enduring hardships and fighting through them

And say
And declare

We're living it up
We're enjoying life

Maybe we're living it wrong
Perhaps we're not doing things exactly the right way

But tonights my night
But tonight is my night to have fun

I been at work all day long
I've been working hard all day

I've been taking out the trash
I've been doing menial tasks

But even I gotta relax
But even I need to unwind

I'll have a blast 'till dawn
I'll have fun until the sun comes up

So now I'm doing things my way
Now I am taking control

Now I'm cleaning my act
I am improving my behavior

Work Monday until Friday and when it's over I'll laugh
I work during the week and enjoy my weekend

Some say they admire me and some say I'm on crack
Some people appreciate me, while others think I'm crazy

But I'm finally going my way living it up at last
But I am finally living my life to the fullest

And say I'm still here
And declare that I have not given up

Yah I've survived
I have made it through tough times

I'm alive re-ignited with a fire like
I feel alive and motivated

I'm Dynamite
I am filled with explosive energy and power

I've got all kinds of might
I possess strength and capacity

I got god on my side
I have faith and trust in a higher power

And that's enough for me to be
And that is sufficient for me to feel

More than alright
Better than okay

So it sing like
So let it be expressed

The lyrics that your hearing are your only source of light
The words you are listening to can guide you

If you need more alright
If you require further inspiration

I swear I swore I'd write
I promised myself I would write

Till the day that I die
Until the day I pass away

I'm here stay and so I'm
I am still here and committed

Living it up
Enjoying life to the fullest

I'll never live this down
I will always remember this amazing experience

Yah I've built this thing up
Yes, I have developed and built something incredible

No way it's gonna go down
It will not fall apart

Its gonna stay this way for days
It will remain like this for a while

So make way for day and say
So let's prepare for the next day and celebrate

That your living it up just like me
That you are also enjoying life to the fullest like me

Work Monday until Friday when it's over I'll laugh
Work during the week and appreciate the weekend

So sit back and just watch this track take off
Sit back and observe this venture successfully launch

Yah kick back relax lets see this thing off
Relax and enjoy the journey

Like a bottle I've popped off
Like a bottle that's been uncorked

Full throttle I got lost
I took off at full speed and got lost in the moment

Like they told me
As people warned me

But won't stop now at all costs
But I won't give up no matter what

I got lost like a kid in a large waterpark
I completely lost myself in a thrilling experience

And this thing ain't parked it just pulled out the garage
This venture is not stagnant, but just began

And no it ain't garbage
And it is not worthless

You can say what you say but you'll pay homage
You can have your opinion, but you will acknowledge the achievement

Pause
Wait a moment

So you can criticize my vibe
So you can judge my style

But let me try to explain
But allow me to elaborate

I've pried and tried to say what I say
I have put in effort to express myself

Without formulating parts that may make your brain pop
Without using overly complex language

But I'll still stay sweet just like a cake pop
But I will remain likable and enjoyable

So just pause let me please say what I have to
So pause and allow me to express myself fully

I've been trying so hard to make a song go bar down like Matthews
I have worked tirelessly to create a successful song

Yah Auston Matthews
Referencing popular athlete of the same name

It's not cause I want to
It's not because I strive to do so

It's cause I kind of have to
It's because I feel obligated to do so

I've got to prove
I need to demonstrate

That I can stay in a groove to
That I can consistently create quality work

A bunch of people that believe I can't move smooth
A group of people who doubt my abilities

But I showed 'em
But I proved them wrong

When I got my song on Apple and Spotify
When my song was featured on popular platforms

Amazon Music and even Youtube
And was even available on other digital music channels

So please
So I plead

You best believe
You should have faith

You better get used to
You should get accustomed

Me
To me as an artist

Hip hop and R&B
The genres of music I create

Some pop and I use blues
With some pop influence and blues inspiration

To create my rhythms
To craft my music and beats

And make words that stick to 'em
And write lyrics that connect with the rhythms

Like clay and play dough
Like molding clay or play dough

So you can play them long so listen
So you can enjoy them for a long time and truly hear them

Just one more time
One more chance to show what I can do

Let me kick this flawless set of rhymes
Allow me to perform this perfect verse

But we ain't wrong
But we are not mistaken in living our life to the fullest

Yah tonights my night
Tonight is my night to shine

I been at work for so long
I have been working hard for a long time

But now I finally can relax
Now I can finally take some time to unwind

And kick back 'till dawn
And enjoy myself until the sun comes up

So now things have gone my way
Now things are working out for me

Now I've got a brand new act
Now I have a fresh, new approach

I Worked Monday to sunday and its time for my laugh
I worked hard all week and it's time for me to enjoy my weekend

Some guys say they admire me and some say I'm on crack
Some people appreciate me, while others think I'm crazy

But I'm finally on top living it up at last
But I am finally living my life to the fullest
