lyrics

Awake

Papa don’t worry I will make it
Papa I was born with your dreams
All I remember are stars shining
And how much I needed to shine too

I remember day after day
He hustlin’ and raising babies
Dreams had to take a break
Dreams he never would chase

So begins me papa’s new dream
1 2 3
And just like that magic
Life goes on
Woah
So he raised me and he taught me
To keep runnin runnin runnin
Like all is at stake here is the world
I am awake

And I know most of us won’t get there
And I still wonder if I want to
Born with a dream or is it an illusion
Once I am there it’s not what I thought

But no matter day after day
We all have to earn our way
So if I’m gonna spend my life
I will spend it in pursuit
I will push until I can’t
I will work until I’m broken
I will master my own world
Be the ruler of my fate

So begins me papa’s new dream
1 2 3
And just like that magic
Life goes on
Woah
So he raised me and he taught me
To keep runnin runnin runnin
Like all is at stake here is the world
I am awake

I am awake
I am awake
I am awake
