Lyrics Rooster Crows (feat. Zues) - David Lopez

I wake up before the rooster crows
I wake up before the rooster crows
I got a lot on my mind, can't seem to let it all go
I been thinking this life isn't ready for me
I been creeping around all the zombies I see
I keep praying to God, he continues to guide
Never had a role, model or hero
Just people I didn't wanna be, don't wanna be a zero
My demons keep on hunting me, I never feel safe
Done playing keep up, I'm sick of this game
Tryna navigate the battlefield that's laying in my brain
Making visits to the liquor store, there's whiskey in my veins
I been hurting for a minute, wishing for them better days
Knowing that I gotta be patient, this ain't minute made
It's been feeling like forever since I seen a sunny day
So something's gotta give or they gon' feel my rain
Lord, forgive me for making my own way
I know I'ma pay the price, so I'm ready for that day
They put dirt on my coffin and fill up my grave
Gotta load up my pistol and watch for the snakes
Cause tomorrow ain't promised, I know what they say
Tryna find a way to release all my rage
So I pull out my pen and put ink on the page
I ain't never had a verse, they ain't feel what I say
They hear Zeus on the track and they hit the replay

I wake up before the rooster crows
I got a lot on my mind, that's what the booth is for
Not into wasting time, sleep in the studio
I got a family to feed, that's who I do it for, you know
On my mind is this grind every day
On my grind, Tony Hawk, Pro Skate
All these records like I'm taking PEDs
All the sudden they been talking bout me
Gotta have tough skin, but I need emotion
When I sharpen up the pen in these bars like the pen
I got scars open, on these beats I been bleeding
With my demons I been pleading
Lord, forgive me for making my own way
I been tryna get paid off the words that I say
Straight from my heart, they can't keep up with my pace
Set myself apart, only me on this race
Sun hitting on my phone, it's got a glare
Ain't a blink in my eyes as I stare
Social media just make us all compare
Ain't nobody ever say that shit was fair
They go pay for the streams, then go brag on IG
Take a peek behind the curtain, ain't shit in life free
In this game, I heard them say that perception is key
But you lying to yourself and it's pretty clear to see
Yeah, it's pretty clear to see, but I ain't tripping no more
I'm just worried bout me, if it ain't in my control
Had to learn to let it go, hold my temper gotta grow
Rolling up, I gotta smoke
Feel like I lived twice in this one
Lord willing, I ain't close to done
But I'm closer to God with every flow I got
And this right here, this right here, this the holy one

This right here, this right here, this the holy one
