When I Wake Up - Jill Scott

Too much on my mind

Too much on my mind

Too much on my mind

Too much on my…

Here I am thinking again

All lost in my brain

But I know I should get up and get out of it

I gotta keep moving

But here I am lost all up inside my brain

Can’t stop thinking, reminiscing

Can’t stop, can’t let go

But when I wake up

And one day I will do it

I have let you go

And everything I went through was beautiful

I have let you go

And everything I went through was beautiful

Maybe I, right now, can’t see the forest full of trees

So lost behind hurt

But I’m trying everyday exponentially

To move forward

Ohh do you know how it feels to be lost?

But when I wake up

Everything I went through would be beautiful

When I wake up

And I will wake up

It’s gonna be beautiful

Down to to my left side (last cry)

Feeling I could fly

All day, up high

Sweeter than the sugar on a cinnamon treat

Or an ice cream

That was me

But I’m feeling like I’m in a nightmare

Fear of loving somebody everywhere

Oh Lord I need this confirmation

This affirmation

That when I wake up

When I wake up

Everything I went through will be beautiful

When I wake up

Everything I went through will be beautiful

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Everything I went through will be beautiful

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Gotta wake up

Everything I went through will be beautiful
