E.N.I. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I need you to wake me up yeah
I've been sleeping way to much yeah
Inside my head it got me stuck yeah
Cause imma weird lil thug yeah
Yeah I need you to wake me up
I don't drink but pour my cup
I'm so stuck ran out of love
Talk to me lord
I wanna walk to you lord
Yeah you changed my life by showing me the light it really got me learning to record
And I ain't gone fake but I be wide awake but I don't ever listen till I'm bored
And they think that I'm fake when I be out of space but I can never hide from you lord
I'm stuck on my old sins
Losing all of my old old friends
These the same ones in my old benz
Got a heart it's so broken
Where to start I don't know it
Imma star and you know it
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord
Wake me up
It's too much
Wake up
Taking you somewhere you can't go
Play with your heart like some play doe
I started killing like kratos
That was a dragon I slayed it
I might just go super saiyan
I gotta song better play it
Holes in my heart got me feeling so open
When I wake up man I know that I'm chosen
Wish I could love you I'm already broken
Talk to me lord
I wanna walk to you lord
Yeah you changed my life by showing me the light it really got me learning to record
And I ain't gone fake but I be wide awake but I don't ever listen till I'm bored
And they think that I'm fake when I be out of space but I can never hide from you lord
I'm stuck on my old sins
Losing all of my old old friends
These the same ones in my old benz
Got a heart it's so broken
Where to start I don't know it
Imma star and you know it
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up
Ohh lord just wake me up




Ohh lord
