Eshon Burgundy
Wake Up
[Intro]
Philadelphia, wake up (welcome)
On behalf of my Savior
On behalf of 7M (He has a purpose)
Eshon Burgundy
You know my reason
You gotta do it for yourself, man
Check it

[Verse]
Welcome to the home of brotherly love with temporary thugs
Clutching, busting dreams from them chrome machines, one
Hour away from the precinct
And about two hours away from them cell block screams
What do we think in the heart of the city
Sometimes it feel like I got the only heart in the city
Like I'm the only one walking with the Spirit of God in him
Searched the corners for the love but I couldn't find any
Look past the material souljas, looking for the spiritual soldiers
With the bloody fights in they holsters
Or sights with the insight ripe for the takeover
Like ice in your windpipe, bite like a Sprite soda
The breath of life is in the hood like rice in strollers
And the nights are colder but the blocks is hot
Young kids whistle for the cops 'cause somebody got shot
I'm praying for you when they rip through your shoulder
See I'm right there with you like a brother's supposed to
And I won't forsake you, I'm near 'til it's all over
All over, youngsters quick to applaud over
Without the job prefix, this concludes my thesis
Everybody reaching for a reason and I can't be speechless in this season
My words cast doubt in demons
[Outro]
