Yeah
Six in the morning
Hunger pains

He was a small time hustler with no name
No shame, just a product to the cocaine, old stains
Seen him walkin' in the cold rain
With no brains for a profit he would go slang
He was hungry, he do crime just to do it, doin' lines
He'd abuse it then his mind would consume it
He didn't know that he was burying his own grave
'Cause all he ever wanted was those Jordans and the gold chain
A typical teen, wicked, hittin' the street
In the cypher he was always spittin' and kickin' them frees
He never had incentive, he was sniffin' off keys
A drug addict, age twenty, money clip in his jeans
Girls loved him 'cause they seen he had a heavy wallet
Steady fallin', never ready for the debt he got in
All this misconception had him so delirious
So here he is, completely unaware that this is serious

He don't think he need help
'Cause he's livin' in the dream right now
(Awake dreaming)
He was hungry, now he's got a bit of money
He's awake when the lights go out
(Awake dreaming)
He ain't used to these feelings
So he's runnin' from the demons
(Awake dreaming)
He ain't used to these feelings
So he's runnin' from the demons
(Awake dreaming)

Life was easy, he was livin' like he had it all
He didn't realize to walk it first you have to crawl
So every night he sniff at least another half a ball
Too scared to answer, held at ransom when it's casket calls
He laugh it off and pour a shot and chop another up
Like what the f*ck are you doin' stupid, you out of luck
How abrupt? Now he notices, and now it's tough
And half of time he doesn't realize the powder's cut
Completely out of it, he lays there with a nose bleed
His heart's beatin' but his brain is at a slow speed
With no sleep, he doesn't function 'cause he won't eat
He's so weak, he's on the verge, about to OD
Where does he turn to when he needs a fuckin' helping hand
No ones there to save him now because he's less a man
They seen him go from top to bottom, then they stopped carin'
And now he's dyin' all alone because he lost awareness

He don't think he need help
'Cause he's livin' in the dream right now
(Awake dreaming)
He was hungry, now he's got a bit of money
He's awake when the lights go out
(Awake dreaming)
He ain't used to these feelings
So he's runnin' from the demons
(Awake dreaming)
He ain't used to these feelings
So he's runnin' from the demons
(Awake dreaming)

Get up, fool

Yo, someone pass the phone, man
