To live the dream you need to wake up
You can stay asleep but trust in me it ain’t much
I don’t negotiate with chance I only say what
Is the next step to take and then I take them

Opportunity was knocking, you didn’t get up
Said you had a valid reason but that it isn’t enough
It rang the doorbell too, you’d rather sit on your thumb
It even tapped upon the window but the blinds you just shut

How you think it’s supposed to happen?
It just falls into your lap while you’re just fucking off and relaxing?
Like your reward for being passive
Is some massive success cause your laziness is attractive?

Are you listening to this madness?
Cause I’m talking about your life and how you’ve pissed away these chances
Yeah you had a valid excuse
And everybody would agree but what the fuck did they lose?

They didn’t miss the opportunities, shots at success
How do you sleep knowing that you didn’t give it your best?
How do you wake up content to be mediocre?
I’d rather suffocate to death in someone’s body odor

To live the dream you need to wake up
You can stay asleep but trust in me it ain’t much
I don’t negotiate with chance I only say what
Is the next step to take and then I take them

To live the dream you need to wake up
You can stay asleep but trust in me it ain’t much
Why you negotiate with chance that’s insane bruh
I only ask the next steps and then I take them

Soon you will arrive, but who’s in command?
Is your destiny designed by someone else’s hands?
Are you working to fulfill somebody else’s plans?
How much longer will you tolerate it take a stand

Or stay seated, it’s your choice believe it
Either way you are responsible if you’re defeated
You also get the credit whenever you are succeeding
So are you going to wake the fuck up or go back to sleeping?

Cause fortune is a woman
Who will let herself be won by those bold enough to pursue her
She don’t respect the cautious
Nor does she give the time of day to any timid offers

So what’s your plan stand idly by
While your pathetic life passes like hello and goodbye?
You can do it but it ain’t that fun
You see decision weighs ounces but regret weighs a ton

To live the dream you need to wake up
You can stay asleep but trust in me it ain’t much
I don’t negotiate with chance I only say what
Is the next step to take and then I take them

To live the dream you need to wake up
You can stay asleep but trust in me it ain’t much
Why you negotiate with chance that’s insane bruh
I only ask the next steps and then I take them
