2 - Rise And Shine (Featuring Javier Starks)

Rise and Shine

Waking up

Feeling good

Time to Grind

Put that work in

Either 9 to 5

Or get your hustle on…

CM Verse:

I got my mind all focus mode, no falling for the okiedoke

I feel so bless, no need for a drink or a smoke

Trying to be my best, so it’s all about the positive

Vibes don’t click with mines, cant mess with the opposite

Not today, nope… I’m trying to be productive

Ain’t no way, cant let you touch my data and corrupt it

Usually I be like duck it but today is a new day

Been doing it this so long, time to try out a new way

Nothing that last long come easy, learn that the hard way

But I’m still breathing, so the experience has always been our way

To make a situation better, think about the outcome

Before any action been taken, no need to ask how come

I already know the difference from a distance, humbly persistent

Gotta keep the gears grinding, that’s a personal commitment

Having a job been my job, this music been my mission

Been sick with it and I ain’t even got no symptoms

Put that work in, put that, put that work in

Put that work in, gotta put that work in

To all street corner survivors, stay at home providers

All my 9 to 5ers, stay putting that work in

Put that work in, put that, put that work in

Put that work in, gotta put that work in

To all the child support payers, bench to all star players

High society daters, stay putting that work in

Javier Starks verse:

I rise like simba, everything the light touches mine

Aint no hyena gon take I thank the lord every time

Like big ben they clockin but I move in silence

Settin the standard, inspiring the hood stenographers

Jot this down, make a note in your memory

My struggle written in golden caligraphy

Beautiful even though it’s hard on me

Success breed divine enemies and false homies

I dodge them, they judge me like juries

Then turn around lie bout what they see in the mirror like bloody mary

That’s just how the world work tho,

You gotta be a beast to make the cut and get your literal furlough

Me? I had a vision, build it from the ground up

Funny how the ones who wasn’t down now keep in touch

And those who doubted wanna be on the team

Turn on they morning news and see me on the screen

Put that work in, put that, put that work in

Put that work in, gotta put that work in

To all street corner survivors, stay at home providers

All my 9 to 5ers, stay putting that work in

Put that work in, put that, put that work in

Put that work in, gotta put that work in

To all the child support payers, bench to all star players

High society daters, stay putting that work in

Rise and Shine

Waking up

Feeling good

Time to Grind

Put that work in

Either 9 to 5

Or get your hustle on…
