[Verse 1]
Yeah
A#m
I've been thinkin'
G#
Or all my thoughts
been creepin'
F#
It's the weekend,
all the
homies drinkin'
Feelin' distant 'cause
this isn't me
A#m
And I hate to be
that guy,
   G#
and I know it ain't
                   F#
that deep, but
What's the point of
life if you waste
it all on sleep?
             A#m
I've
Always been the type
G#
to just tell you
                   F#
how it is
F#
Maybe that's the reason
why on Chirstmas 'ain't
a lot of gifts
A#m
Maybe that's the reason
why I
   G#
got a circle, not a list
  F#
Thanking God inside my
chambers and
that's why the bullets
miss, uh
Gotta take a break 'cause
the trust I givе is
killing me
Take my words to heart,
but you
won't takе accountability
Wasting time to see no
change is
something that's
offending me
Now my head in
silence, like I'm
good, like I pretend
to be
Choices that I'm makin'
Ain't the greatest
If it's easy takin'
Probably vacant
Talkin' 'bout the feelin’
where you force it,
where you chase it
Trust me when I say this,
if it's for you,
nothing can replace it

[Chorus]
Wake me up at sunrise
'Cause I'm givin'

You not giving me
enough

[Verse 2: Ivan B]
Cut 'em off, 'cause
I need
somethin' more, yeah
Cut 'em off, left my
heart outside
the door, yeah
I can't put it on my
shoulders 'cause
you feelin hurt
No more second
guessin' on
the days I put me
first, uh
I ain't changin',
I'm just
changin' what's
around me
I'm impatient 'cause my
head is feelin'
crowded
Out in Vegas, losing
hundreds
maybe thousands
At a table thinkin'
when's the last time
that I really took a
chance
Took a look, I know
most
only take a glance
At yourself, I suppose
when
it's out your hands
Losin' focus, out of
touch
The come ups hit harder
at the
bottom comin' up, and
I
Took for granted
what I had
Now I don't know what
I have
And the saddest
part of that
What you love ain't
lovin back
Gave my shirt to
everybody who would
never have my back
Ain't it funny that
I'm chasin' dreams '
moment that I ask?

[Chorus]
Wake me up at
sunrise
'Cause I'm givin'
up on you and I
I've had enough
Of you not giving me
enough
You not giving me
enough
Wake me up, I'm not
alright
'Cause I'm givin'
up on you and I
I've had enough
Of you not giving
me enough
You not giving me
enough

[Outro]
No, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no
You ain't giving
me enough
No, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no
Woah
Woah
