Verse 1
Daylight
I wake up feeling like you won’t play right
I used to know, but now that shit don’t feel right
It made me put away my pride
So long
You made a nigga wait for some, so long
You make it hard for boy like that to go on
I’m wishing I could make this mine, oh

Pre-Chorus
If you want it, yeah
You can have it, oh, oh, oh
If you need it, ooh
We can make it, oh
If you want it
You can have it

Chorus
But stay woke
Niggas creeping
They gon’ find you
Gon’ catch you sleeping, ooh
Now stay woke
Niggas creeping
Now don’t you close your eyes

Verse 2
Too late
You wanna make it right, but now it’s too late
My peanut butter chocolate cake with Kool-Aid
I’m trying not to waste my time
