I Woke Up by Giselle Bellas Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2017

All I've known was the power of my art and not myself
Let it consume my free will and it pushed me to hell
Loved it like my only friend as you told me to
I trusted you, follow through
Don’t question my religion
Your empathy's a lie

All I had, cause I was to scared to speak
And now I'm screaming
Can’t you hear it

I woke up
I've changed
Not guilty for being angry
I'm not the same

I woke up
I've changed
Put myself first
I'm not ashamed that
I woke up
I woke up
You can't take away my power
I promise, you can try
I've got a lot to say
And I mean it, I promise
No time to cry

Used me 'til it crippled me
And it threw me away
You fall down, get up again
Smile through the pain
All I had ’cause I was too scared to speak
And now I’m screaming
Can you hear it

I woke up
I've changed
Not guilty for being angry
I’m not the same
I woke up
I've changed
Put myself first
I'm not ashamed that
I woke up
I woke up

(Raydar Ellis)
Get knocked down 8 times stand up 9
You could fall for anything by folks with no spine
I don't dance with the devil he don’t stay on beat
Projecting on me like I got two left feet
I may scuff knuckles, pull muscles, even bleed
But when spotlights shine my grind is pristine
My pain was a pawn I sacrificed kings
Remixed the game strongest on the board is the Queen
The game ain't over when he say so
The reign ain't only for the pay roll
The under estimators better lay low
I ain't come this far for me to take no
For an answer get with the times like Seiko
Used to believe when they said I wasn't made for
This craft now I've come back and got the KO
Belt on the shoulder for the one they over looked
Now the devils wanna trade in they horns for some halos
I woke up
I've changed
Not guilty for being angry
I'm not the same
I woke up
I've changed
Put myself first
I'm not ashamed that
I woke up
