Awake lyrics

by

MF DOOM


[Verse 1]
Listen I’m here to change the game
Like Grandma had changed my name from the very first stage
I started the revolution from my very birth place
It’s Hasan Tanveer Ahmad that’s my name in the essence
But it could get altered like the words in my flow
I'm a universal message
I’m standin’ at the alter with a Bible and a blessing
Smooth, like my words came without effort
Well I wish I could say that
My words carry questions from across the globe
That’s hardly laid back
My soul in a flux between worlds like you say Jesus is
But I found it in the
Depths of the well where prophet Yusef hid
Some say that I’m new to this
But I rap like I spat fluids out the uterus
Listen close and one spec of my light
Will crack souls open like Eucharists
I’m strummin’ in the key of life tryna dodge a path of regrets
But they say, “it’s useless kid”
Still I push on, no I never fret, I'mma
Hammer on till I’m nailed in the crucifix

[Bridge]
Awake From Hibernation
Eyes closed chakras open
Chakras open

[Verse 2]
The flow’s been conducted since the Earth was a virgin to the knowledge of God’s existence
My nervous system’s been abducted by the amazement
In the midst of his creation I’m just a vestige
Witness to the progression of the message
See the challenge is, giving the human species evidence
In balance with the challenge of finding faith in its essence
You see faith is a funny thing it’s quick to slip if you ain’t restless
So I’m constantly reminded by the talents I was left with
I got a, vivid image of hell as a death bed
Where I failed to make the most out of whatever
I was blessed with
If we all in the Lord’s hands I just pray he’s ambidextrous
So I take my next step in the right direction
When I send an emcee down the walls of my intestines
Deliver smooth as the
Dexterity of this wack artist digestion
I’m just suggestin’
You and your favorite rapper better be cautious of the danger
Mic skills been refined in the hyperbolic time chamber
365 days of week, basically I’m
Holdin’ it down my words got enough weight to multiply gravity
It’s mastery of Haas wielding the mic saber see I
Anguish beats while reviving a species
Of conscious rapper that’s endangered
So I level the playing table when I
Leave a couple un-conscious rappers unconscious
So they label me a convict
Though I constantly remind ‘em I’m on a divine mission
Don’t get it twisted ain’t saying “God need me”
Just deserve to see me untap the mind I was given
I’m on another world where the mic is all I need
I’m livin’ the dream, woke up on my spaceship
Still it’s hard to reach the portal to the mind of
These Homo sapiens sayin’ “That Haas kid insane to think he can do it”
But if I do, my thoughts will become immortal
That’s why I’m tryna go global and chase it
But the simple minded get blinded
Before I even enlighten my nation
So tell my homies stay patient
I know the forte of vocab is a hurdle but they
Surely know the godly rhythm’s universal
The more we think we know, the faster the universe
Will adapt and evade it
Funny how ignorance is bliss and I miss the peace held by cavemen
But f*ck it I got my curiosity untamed
That’s how I speak bad words with heavenly connotations
Sorry if I don’t keep this sh*t clean but it’s just a sound
And what society makes it
Understand that language is makeshift
Recognize what’s coming off the tongue is a weapon you can mold brains with
Unleash the potential of your, young brain and enable it
To shine a light on the path of what you truly have faith in
Understand that no mind was created inferior
You got the power to battle any given exterior
So ecstasy or tears you shed
Overcome your fear in men with no hesitation
Let the crowd go deaf, as I awake from hibernation

[Outro: Jay-Z]
It’s poetry in everything
It’s poetry in how someone does an interview
Ya know, how you deliver it, the words you choose
And how you segway to the next subject
So it’s poetry in everything if you look for it
