Woke up late (E106)

Yeah… Pling plong… Alarm goes off, man the chaos is on Cold city morning but I’m still moving strong Turn mistakes into bars, every loss into song Started all wrong, now we vibe all night long Pling plong, left my jacket at home Pling plong, wallet in it, now I’m broke and alone Pling plong, day started going all wrong But I turn every problem into words in a song Woke up late, hit snooze way too long Threw my sneakers on fast while humming a song No breakfast, just stress and my heart beat loud Like the whole damn city trying to swallow the crowd Ran to the bus but the doors shut tight Driver saw me running, still he rolled out of sight I said damn… watched my morning go wrong Like confidence fading before the day got long Put my hand in my pocket empty, no cash Then it hit me hard like a memory crash Wallet, keys, all at home where I’d been In the jacket I forgot hanging there by the pin No metro card, no coffee, no backup plan Just me and bad luck doing all that it can But I said nah, I won’t let this day win If life throws chaos then I rap through the spin Pling plong, left my jacket at home Pling plong, wallet in it, now I’m broke and alone Pling plong, day started going all wrong But I turn every problem into words in a song Walked to work, rain soaked through my shoes Pants full of mud but I ain’t got time to lose Storm in the sky but I move like a king Even when life gets heavy I still make it swing Boss said “late again?” I said “call it fate” He laughed and said “bro you were born too late” Then the lunchroom started tapping beats on the wall And my bad luck turned into a vibe for us all Pling on the table, plong in the cup Freestyle in the break room, whole squad lit up What felt like disaster in a quarter past ten Turned into a legend we were rapping again Life is a cypher, gotta stay in the rhyme Fall down today, tomorrow you shine From a lost damn jacket to a beat so strong Sometimes all your failures become where you belong Pling plong, hear my life like a gong Every little mistake turns into a song Pling plong, when the whole world bends I just rap through the chaos till the struggle ends Night falls down and I’m walking through lights Neon signs dancing through the city nights Thinking ’bout the morning and I start to grin Cause what felt like defeat became a place to begin Mama called laughing “lost your jacket again?” I said “Ma, this mistake made a hit in the end” My boy sent a beat said “drop one more rhyme” Now we in the studio turning struggle to shine Bass so heavy make the whole wall shake Crowd scream “Pling plong!” every move that I make Started as stress in a hallway alone Now it’s an anthem everybody claims as their own Who ain’t felt lost with no path in sight? Missed the right turn but kept walking all night Everybody got flaws in the pockets they hold Sometimes those flaws turn your story to gold Pling… when you losing control Plong… when the world takes a toll Hold the rhythm, hold your soul Turn everyday chaos into something whole Pling… when you stumble and fall Plong… make the setback your call From hallway floors to a stage so strong We make every failure become sing-along Now the crowd jumping hard when the bassline drops From forgotten jackets to the top of the charts Missed buses, dead phones, no money to spend Still we make those hard days feel legendary in the end Next time life hits and your plans go wrong Remember this beat and keep moving along Could start as a mess, end iconic and strong Turn pain into rhythm and make trouble a song Pling plong, left my jacket at home Pling plong, wallet in it, now I’m broke and alone Pling plong, chaos turned into art Now the whole damn city sings it straight from the heart Pling plong, hear my life like a gong Every little mistake turns into a song Pling plong, we all lose sometimes But we turn our problems into powerful rhymes Pling… plong… From forgotten jacket to a worldwide song Pling… plong… When life goes wrong make a banger and move on.
