[Verse 1]
Don't crease your air forces
Just stay inside tonight
You know what's happening outside
You say it's okay
But you tucked your chain
Like if they take it
I won't see you for a while
And I tell you how I feel
In case it's the last time
You know the odds, you know the flaws
It's all by design
[Pre-Chorus]
And you'll go anywhere, though it ain't safe
Just know that I care, I'll always care
And I'll be awake
[Chorus]
I'll be awake
I'll be awake
I'll be awake
[Break]
[Verse 2]
And all these intersections
Where we've been kept and left in
I wonder why God keeps us alivе?
To what are we evеn destined?
Where we have wives and children
Or is that not written for you and I
You know they want what's yours
And they want what's mine
And if we're too holy, they think we're phony
They don't want us to climb
[Pre-Chorus]
And you'll go anywhere, though it ain't safe
Just know that I care, I'll always care
And I'll be awake
[Chorus]
I'll be awake
I'll be awake
I'll be awake (I'll be)
I'll be, I'll be awake
I'll be awake
[Break]
[Outro]
You see a couple kids runnin' around, playing games
The dope boys ridin' around, ridin' bikes
Then you see obviously mans comin' over at the green box
Just crackin' jokes, kickin' up
