There is so much we complain about
Today, tomorrow, it's not promised
We should be grateful it's time to wake up

So much you wanna get done, uh, oh
Here comes another setback, oh
One thing after another, oh
Then you're getting in your own way, oh
Crying, complaining won't make it better
You just got to get out your head
You gotta get up and don't look back
It's time to wake up

Stand up, wear your crown (Stay up)
Whatever goes can't come back around
(yeah, wake up)
Look up, don't look down (Mmm, stay up)
Stay up high, they gotta see you now (M-m-m)
Wake up

Why you standing 'round? Whatcha waiting for?
You're the key you choose to do it your way
Making your own fate
Oh, and don't you blame the world, oh no
Mmm, and if you never give it a go
I know 'cause that person used to be me
Until I finally opened my eyes
It's time to wake up

Stand up, wear your crown
(Wear your crown, stay up)
Whatever goes can't come back around
(Can't come around here no more, wake up)
Look up, don't look down (Oh yeah, stay up)
Stay up high, they gotta see you now wake up

They say the head wearing the
Crown is the heaviest yet
But I ain't never had fine
Metals or a bezeled baguette
I was the last born scion
To an empire of regret
Came with an armored plate of steel
And tears outlined on the crest
Grew up in a place with
Dope boys and Tolstoy intersect
With war and peace fighting for
Primetime control of the set
See, innocence was a luxury
Only the luckiest get
And the odds were never in our favor
So we was stuck with the debt
But I fought to come a long way
From dark days and lost hope
They told me all it takes is one
Lil' spark and we all toke
So I stay looking for the light
Keep them watts on a hundo
'Til my ambition catch a fire like
A Wailer and Bob quote
And I know every win come with
A lil' skin in the game
My scar tissue a roadmap
Through the harsh terrain
Might've never got the lesson if
The testing me caused refrain
Made the old me no match for
The warrior that I became, roc

Stand up, wear your crown
(You got to stand up, yeah)
Whatever goes can't come back around
(Can't come back here no more)
Look up, don't look down
(Don't you look down, no, stay up)
Stay up high, they gotta see you now
(Stay up) wake up (yeah)
(Remember who you are) Wake up, up, up
Wake up, y'all, yeah
(You're a king) Wake up now, come on, uh
(You're a queen) Wake up, up, up
Ah ba da ba (Da da da da) , ah ba boo da boo
(Never compromise) Wait on it
You just wait for it (Wait for it)
You just wait on it, you just work harder
(Wake up) They might sleep on you
Wait for it you just work hard and
(Work hard) , you just wait on it
Wait for it (Wait for it) , wait for it
Wait on it
(It's gonna come, it's gonna come, y'all) 
You just wait on it wait for it
(Hold on) , they might sleep on you
(Wake up) You just work hard and
(Work hard now, work hard, work hard)
Wait for it, wait for it (Wait for it)
Stay up, up, up
Stay up, up, up, up (Stay, stay)
Stay up, up, up, up
Stay up, stay up (Stay up)
You just wait on it, wait for it
Wait on it, you just wait, wait
Work harder, work harder
W-w-work harder, you just wait for it
(Underestimate me if you want to, but)
(There's more to me than meets the eye)
(There's more to me
Underestimate me if you want to)
(But there's more to me, yeah, more to me)
(You know, then you'll see, baby)
