lirik lagu awake (god is good) – ben hilly

[intro]
good morning!

sound beautiful, don’t you agree?
i appreciate ya taking timeout… to getting this
and listening to it
’bout to take you on a ride
into something different
yeah!

it’s coming!
it’s coming! huh!

[verse 1]
god is good , god is great
glad to be alive on this very day
so i’m thinking of better ways to make that pay
but the people of the world got something to say

they say the truth hurts so it’s hard to tell
and you gotta dumb down if you really wanna sell
cos they don’t wanna swim if it’s too deep like a well
so mediocrity seem the best place to dwell

but i’m on the thin line dumbing it down and telling the truth
relating with the youth
like i’m from another school
and i’m tryna fit in and be cool like a ice cube
and i’m tryna get use to it like ice cube
but then i ask where are the intellectuals?
cos if all that exists be m-sses who don’t pay attention
then i’m no exception
cos this is my generation
and there has to be some form of communication
like common sense or no relation
cos i pen lyrics according to situation
so what’s the occasion?
are we gonna have a party all day long
and act like everything’s fine
cos if we’re never sobered up then something’s not right

are we gonna sell out to be fly like a kite?
give up on a fight?
or we gon’ remind ourselves
we gotta reach for the highest highs?

[hook 1]
god is good! god is great!
god is good! god is great!
god is good! god is great!
god is good! all the time!

god is good! god is great!
god is good! god is great!
god is good! always!
god is good! that’s why i keep my head up high!

[verse 2]
and i hope that today is a good day
and the sun also rises like hemingway
and no young dreams get brought to a halt today
cos i ran through blocks dodging bullets yesterday
it must be hard for neo in the matrix
tryin’ to fit in a world of lies and everything plastic
so i gotta protect my sp-ceship
for a safe flight to zion and that’s it!

in this generation of adhd
i make music for those who dare to listen

i’m tryna break barriers with music that’s necessary
to feed imprisoned minds like commissary
plus i bring that love that got you taken
so be awaken and vibe to this creation
this’s dedicated to kids without scholarships
sailing ahead through college in hardships
to single parents who play both mama and papa
working extra hard to make sure they kids live proper
and to those who are born superstars
hated for no reason
or maybe cos you shine through every season

[hook 2]
god is good! god is great!
god is good! god is great!
god is good! always
and here’s a reminder you’re special

god is good! god is great!
god is good! god is great!
god is good! always!
feels great to be made in his image!

[outro]
yeah!
if you’re wondering
it’s the renaissance man – ben hilly
signing off with love

call me the black socrates
i bring rap philosophies
on a day to day
huh!

so you made it this far?
wanna say i appreciate that

it’s kinda fly ain’t it?

it’s early in the morning
going to work?
going to school?
or you’re going home? ha ha!
have a great day!
peace!
