Awake is AV's new single off of his 3rd solo album entitled "Blessed", which will be released on October 2021.
Awake is one of the many songs on the album that features a special guest, in this case, the in-house RRR artist "Your Friend Esteves" . The song is about waking up from or overcoming troubled times, from a state of self-doubt, victimism, and aggressiveness. All of this is conveyed through the delicate yet incisive voice of Your Friend Esteves and the raunchy, rocky, and in-your-face singing style of AV.
A song for synth, pop, and rock lovers, which will have everyone on their feet at the first listen!
lyrics
VERSE 1
Bright lights on the iris of my eyes
Curtains down,Looking out
a window that connects me
Every thought blinking energy
Cruising, unrobotic
Sentient of their liberty
DROP 1
Not a trick, not illusion
CHORUS
I was asleep but
Now I’m awake
A dawn, a sun
Rising, ascending
VERSE 2
I'm walking in a fantasy
A dream perpetuated
Energy flows in my veins
Reaching higher today
Blooming, the gardens
Of every day’s moments
BRIDGE
Verses for my birth
The first time
Breaking the loop
Of slumber, I’m awake
Chanting, whispering
ChOrus
