Hook

Waking up about 8 in the morning
Went to sleep at 5 wipe the sleep from my eyes
Long days Long nights tryna get it right
Long days Long nights tryna get it right
Sleep when you die take a nap when you can
God wouldn't put you through anything you couldn't stand
Long days Long nights tryna get it right
Long days Long nights tryna get it right

Verse 1

When you got a destination
Determination kicks in
Do whatever get the cheddar
Ain't no time for sittin
Sleep when you die
Take a nap when you can
God wouldn't put you through anything you couldn't stand
I had helping hands, just to help me fall
I needed that go grow you won't catch me stall
Gotta fail to succeed but the task is to skip greed
For anybody watching I hope that you lip read
This me, the same brotha that constantly spit heat
Formulate a verse to compliment this beat
In a home studio like hustle & flow
Gotta work with what we have add the hustle and go
In the summer time it's hot it be burning up
In the winter time it's cold gotta cover up
It's good work through tryna get it right
I see the bigger picture so I'm up all night
Let's go

Verse 2

I'm up late nights working tryna figure this out
Different ways on how to make it how to get myself out
Hit the road I'm on the go
I got rid of the couch
Another show a different state
That's what life is about
Gotta get it to the people, let the people be the judge
Every time I hit the stage everytime they show me love
I'm really plottin on the under, devising a plan
To take this music shit global get em waving they hands
From the Bay to LA New York to Japan
Tryna hear the crowd screaming beat shaken the stands
In different places of the world Kritta making a stamp
So I'm putting my work in there's no rubbing the lamp
It's just KMI here be apart of the camp
Help me spread the word tell whoever you can
Momma said boy "Why you got them bags under your eyes?"
If she knew what I was doing then she wouldn't be surprised

Bridge

If you up late nights and you working on your craft
I'm on the same shit y'all I'm here with you
If it's 3 in the morning and your still making moves
I'm on the same shit y'all I'm here with you
If it's been a long day and you bout to roll up
I'm on the same shit y'all I'm here with you
If you down to put the work in and never give up
I'm on the same shit y'all I'm here with you

Repeat

Yea
