Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
College ball is like a job but no 9 to 5
The industry making billions while we just survive
Look ya got study hall, go to class and then practice too
Training room, position meeting just to aim you
Towards success to chase the check cause it's just wins and losses
Coaches win for that Benz pulled into they office
In reality you hit them weights, more than them books
Slack in any two and watch your position get took
Second team, scout team and next you off the team
Back home with city blues cause you done lost ya dream
They call us, gladiators, child warriors, field niggas
They say your education free you better learn this here boy
You better hush your mouth and play this ball
You bet not get no job
Boy I'll take everything and send you back home with your moms
You bet not make no money off them talents you got
You bet not be staying at nobody but your family spot if you're just
18 with a dream
Go to college, hit the league and ball how I seen
Them Saturday lights bright but it ain't all that it seems
Cause yea they say you tight, but then unravel ya seams
I was just 18 with a dream
Go to college, hit the league and ball how I seen
Them Saturday lights bright but it ain't all that it seems
Cause yea they say you tight, but then unravel ya seams
Some people be like switch since your life is so hard
I'll trade all of my freedom to live life like a star
Free flights and tuition and the TV time?
Study hall, nutrition table, where's the dotted line
All the girlies know your name the campus like your castle
So what you're feeling slighted boy that's worth the hassle
You think you're king, stunt for IG but we know that's a joke
Scholarship you nigga rich but your spirit is broke
You can't trust them females cause they hide they intentions
But you're just tryna, Ahh, so you gone directly mention
All that playing time you get and how you're league bound
It's some sharks in that water, they gone help you drown
See this a message to my brothers out there on that field
I pray you looking out for you cause all that hype ain't real
It's 'bout them dollars, it's 'bout them wins and losses, uh
Them coaches tell you one thing and switch it up in they office
Loose minds, bad habits over liquor nights
Chasing women, tryna kick it, tryna live life
It ain't all bad, it ain't all good
But shit we ain't trippin', at least we out the hood
We get to chase that check, we gotta get that bag
But what about your brain, I think we need that
I got up off that field, and did a little reflecting
I really turned my head, into a lethal weapon
And I was just
18 with a dream
Go to college, hit the league and ball how I seen
Them Saturday lights bright
But it ain't all that it seems
Cause yea they say you tight, but then unravel ya seams
