Music and lyrics by Matt McDaniel
Wake up sleepy people, wake up
Wake up while you can still smell the roses
Look up sheltered people, look up
Look up at the world that your eye encloses
Do you see what our kin imposes?
Take a look at the sun, someday we might be closer
Wake up sleepy people, wake up
Wake up in the world's most powerful nation
Live up empowered people, live up
Live up to your hard-earned reputation
We're the hope of our civilization
Take a look at the world, it depends on our generation
With every passing day, we appear to be sleeping
But will we still pretend to be sleeping at our funeral?
Wake up needy people, wake up
Wake up and breathe in all your pollution
Speak up freaky people, speak up
Speak up, we know you want a revolution
We already know the solution
Take a look at the world it depends on our evolution
With every passing day we turn our heads away
As our countdown ends, we appear to be sleeping
We still have the will to live, but only from day to day
Will still pretend to be sleeping at our funeral?
Wake up while you can still smell the roses
Look up sheltered people, look up
Look up at the world that your eye encloses
Do you see what our kin imposes?
Take a look at the sun, someday we might be closer
Wake up sleepy people, wake up
Wake up in the world's most powerful nation
Live up empowered people, live up
Live up to your hard-earned reputation
We're the hope of our civilization
Take a look at the world, it depends on our generation
With every passing day, we appear to be sleeping
But will we still pretend to be sleeping at our funeral?
Wake up needy people, wake up
Wake up and breathe in all your pollution
Speak up freaky people, speak up
Speak up, we know you want a revolution
We already know the solution
Take a look at the world it depends on our evolution
With every passing day we turn our heads away
As our countdown ends, we appear to be sleeping
We still have the will to live, but only from day to day
Will still pretend to be sleeping at our funeral?
