Wake Up Lyrics

I want to turn the whole world on

Just for a moment

If only

Uh

Wake up

Uh

Wake up

Wake up

Let's talk about homicide

Why do hominids

Want they momma crying

Over wars that they ain't even start

But dying

Heard a thousand kids

Nan one alive

I know

I know they father tired

Of a gruesome scene

I ain't one to lie

Why do European mass administration

Love to kill the land

And the ones that saved it

Know my people grand

Know it's hurting ain't it

I still see enslavement

We don't want your hand

You just here to take it

We don't steal the land

That my people waded

Through the blood

That you spilled

Tryna shape it

Every narrative ain't an opportunity to hear it out

Killed in our community

They air it out

All across the globe

Know our whereabouts

Preaching about unity

But wear it out

Cuz they really wanna see us dead

Your color important

At least what they said

They hung us as ornaments

Said we won't men

You said we was dormant

With chains round our hands

I feel so exploited

Put change on our heads

They kill all our leaders

Then send us to bed

They hope you not on it

But know you ain't scared

I just don't know what's ahead

I'm cooking like Forman

Ain't nothing unsaid

I fly like a hornet

Won't never misled

Your thoughts are important

But coping instead

They just say get to the bread

Be cold in the moment

Know hoping ain't dead

Our lives are the shortest

So real shit I bled

Got love from the poorest decent

But I tread

Uh

Wake up

Uh

Wake up

Wake up
