Woke

This the only love that I know, yeah

I just can't let my pride go, no

And I stay loyal to my soil

And if you want it, I got somethin' for you

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up now

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up now

We swimmin' in ignorance

A cesspool full of lies and indifference

The truth is scary 'cause we're limitless

The power of imagination infinite

I carry on tradition, I'm a lyricist

Let there be light on the mic like Genesis

And my circle gets smaller the farther I get

We on a different wave if your actions don't match what you said

Uh, full speed ahead

Me and my team never breakin' 'less we breakin' some bread

And if I'm gonna take it, take it straight to the head

I don't need a chase, I'm chasin' dreams instead

This the only love that I know, yeah

I just can't let my pride go, no

And I stay loyal to my soil

And if you want it, I got somethin' for you

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up now

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up now

Shades of skin color and religions

Got us killin' each other but nobody winnin'

Is this the world we leave for the children?

It takes seconds to destroy what we're buildin'

Does it take a common enemy for us to unify?

Side by side we stand when there's aliens in the sky

Are we alone, searchin' for a new home

In the stars 'cause we destroyin' our own?

I'm in my own zone now

I keep it real all the way to the bone marrow

And the truth hurts so it's hard to tell it to yourself

And the truth is we all need help

This the only love that I know, yeah

I just can't let my pride go, no

And I stay loyal to my soil

And if you want it, I got somethin' for you

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up now

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up now

Through the struggles, let's rise above

Take the hate and replace it with love

Let go of what it once was

Let's rise above, let's rise above
