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
