[Chorus: RoZe]
Sometimes, yeah, sometimes
It gets hard tryna reach my goals (hard tryna reach my goals)
Sometimes, yeah, sometimes
I pretend like I'm real close (pretend like I'm real close)
Sometimes, yeah, sometimes
I have to put my life on hold (to put my life on hold)
Sometimes, yeah, sometimes
I can't dream because
I'm still woke
Woke, woke, woke, woke
Woke, I'm still woke
Woke, woke, woke, woke
Yeah, I'm still woke
I'm-I'm still woke
Woke, woke, woke, woke
Ayy, I'm still woke
Woke, woke, woke, woke
Yeah, I'm still woke

[Verse 1: Abstract]
My life is music; when I hit that mic, I gain control
Speakin' purely through my soul when my mind's in overload
For so long I was cold, I mean, my heart was froze
Treadmillin' emotions, how the fuck was I supposed to grow?
But how the fuck were they supposed to know that my ambitions had me dissing those creating distance from me and my goals?
I was so bitter
Feeling like I was the runt of the litter
But now I deliver like Domino's dinner
Go call me whatever, but can't call me quitter
I'm stuck in my work, they all wanna be eatin', but then they desert
Wasn't here in the kitchen, I ate and did dishes; why they here for dessert?
They tryna wife the game, but all they ever do is flirt
I give my heart, I give my soul, I swear I really put in work
Now they look up to me; we see from the same height on the same earth
Walk the same ground through the same dirt, live the same love and the same hurt
'Cause I'm still woke, but my dreams keep teasin' me
They ask when I'm gon' blow up, but that ain't up to me
[Chorus: RoZe]
Sometimes, yeah, sometimes
It gets hard tryna reach my goals (hard tryna reach my goals)
Sometimes, yeah, sometimes
I pretend like I'm real close (pretend like I'm real close)
Sometimes, yeah, sometimes
I have to put my life on hold (to put my life on hold)
Sometimes, yeah, sometimes
I can't dream because
I'm still woke
Woke, woke, woke, woke
Woke, I'm still woke
Woke, woke, woke, woke
Yeah, I'm still woke
I'm-I'm still woke
Woke, woke, woke, woke
Ayy, I'm still woke
Woke, woke, woke, woke
Yeah, I'm still woke

[Verse 2: Abstract]
Still woke, screaming, "What the hell I gotta do?"
Where the hell I gotta take it just to get it through to you?
Switching states, constant moves, I even been switching crews
That's the way it happened, but it's not what I wanted to do
Remember talkin' bout the top, talking how we'd make it earthquake
And when we hit the ground till the day we make it
Kept it concentrated while they watered down, that's why they hated
Till I make it, learn to simulate it, Neo in The Matrix
Struggle rappin', not by choice—for where I'm at, I should rejoice
Rollin' through the city with the crew screaming, "We 'dem boys!"
We up next like we with Khaled, called it, feelin' we the best
Girls want me signing theirs by gettin weight up off my chest
'Cause God and I may disagree, but these days I've been feeling blessed
Pretty crazy how this life is mine
Still woke but I'll get my shine
Bored, broke, you know I still grind
Maybe one day I'll wake up, find I was dreaming the whole time
[Chorus: RoZe]
Sometimes, yeah, sometimes
It gets hard tryna reach my goals (hard tryna reach my goals)
Sometimes, yeah, sometimes
I pretend like I'm real close (pretend like I'm real close)
Sometimes, yeah, sometimes
I have to put my life on hold (to put my life on hold)
Sometimes, yeah, sometimes
I can't dream because
I'm still woke
Woke, woke, woke, woke
Woke, I'm still woke
Woke, woke, woke, woke
Yeah, I'm still woke
I'm-I'm still woke
Woke, woke, woke, woke
Ayy, I'm still woke
Woke, woke, woke, woke
Yeah, I'm still woke
