“Wake Up” is NF’s message to people who are struggling with life. People can’t appreciate the good in life or fix the mistakes that they have made because they’re “sleeping”. This “coma” separates happiness from the life we have been given by God. The song, with the help of producer Tommee Profitt, gained the eyes of Capitol CMG, getting NF a spot as an artist, and Profitt a spot as a producer. This song was featured in a promo for NBC’s Chicago P.D.
