Wake Up Everybody (Re-Recorded / Remastered)
guitar chords lyrics
Wake up, wake up
You've got the power
Why don't you wake up, why don't you?
Why don't you wake up?
Why don't you wake up, why don't you?
Why don't you wake up?
Set it off for the plan up here, we gotta stand up here
An' give thanks to the Man upstairs
Put the egos an' the pride to the side, regardless
An' just be role models, parents, artists
We can make a change an' we can make it the hardest
If you gon' make the babies, you make 'em the smartest
Let 'em know good an' bad, right from wrong
How to roll with the poachers, when life moves on
An' the stress won't take toll, if you don't sweat it
Let 'em know good an' bad, right from wrong
How to roll with the poachers, when life moves on
An' the stress won't take toll, if you don't sweat it
World won't get no better, if we don't let it
Let the negative energy ride, keep hope alive
It's 'bout time that we opened out eyes, wake up
Wake up everybody, no more sleepin'
Wake up everybody, no more sleepin'
Wake up everybody, no more sleepin'
Wake up everybody, time for thinkin', thinkin'
Yep, we all best to vote
I don't care about the guns you tote
Listen to me like you listened to Fahrenheit 9 11
Ain't no time for the second guessin'
The words I speak, wake up, the ones who sleep
Now leave the ships, fix your mouth to teach
MCs teach the kids what's peace
They don't have to worry 'bout the police
We make 'em rich so they don't have to thief
Every artist here on this track
Will make a change here for young cats
This is for everybody, white or black
You better go an' vote an' get up off your back
I ain't here to take up y'all time
I came to shake up y'all mind, it's everybody's wake up call time
I can't sleep too long while they do the people wrong
Let's clean the world up before they sweep then gone
This is real talk, you can peep through songs
So when you feel weak, these words will keep you strong
Help make a change for the better
It's hard for one to do it
But we can make some change if we do it together
Wake up everybody, no more sleepin'
Wake up everybody, no more sleepin'
Wake up everybody, no more sleepin'
Wake up everybody, time for thinkin', thinkin'
Why don't you wake up, why don't you?
Why don't you wake up?
Why don't you wake up, why don't you?
Why don't you wake up?
Scream,? Peace', do we mean it?
Can you feel it when we scream it out loud?
Do you believe that we need it?
Do you believe that it could get right?
Do you believe that the children of the world deserve a good life?
Well, if you do, it's time to wake up your mind
We can make it better an' I know it might take some time
But we gotta start somewhere, how 'bout wit you an' me
From us it goes to others, then we'll have our unity
Wake up everybody, no more sleepin'
Wake up everybody, no more sleepin'
Wake up everybody, no more sleepin'
Wake up everybody, time for thinkin', thinkin'
Wake up everybody, no more sleepin'
Wake up everybody, no more sleepin'
Wake up everybody, no more sleepin'
Wake up everybody, time for thinkin', thinkin'
But they don't have so very long before their judgement day
