	Story Behind the Song This song was written in one day when a friend named beyonda6ix from England allowed me to use a track he put on the internet. The words flowed to the track nicely which made it easy to write to. Lyrics Wake Up! (First Verse) I took a peek into the future and we’re soon to see How deep it can get with the powers that be How they mislead and fed us with all this hate And keep us so busy that we can’t think straight. And elevate past all this meaninglessness Like taxes and wars that nobody’s gonna win Except for the banks that back both sides And make a killin’ from the millions that die We’ve listened to fork tongue devils too long Now it’s time for us to stand up and be strong And stop participating with politicians And all police cuz they work for the beast And most of them can’t see the wicked in their ways Like a Mason of a lesser degree that can’t see The few at the top that plot on the pile And smile as they turn us out y’all (Hook) Wake up! Cuz that’s what we have to do Wake up! So we could pull each other through Wake up! And head in the right direction Wake up! For the elevation Wake up! Take a peek inside you hold the magic Just take a good look into to you (Second Verse) See they create these problems so we react So they can create solutions that set us back When will we learn that we can’t be lead By the financial forces that want us dead It’s sad to say but even sadder to see All the strugglin’ and sufferin’ we sow and reap And wouldn’t have to if we only caught a clue And thought for ourselves to think things through Why do you act the way you do And do you really think that that’s really you And what do you think is the source of these problems When the powers that be have the power to solve them But choose not to for their satanic ways To keep the public ignorantly enslaved And they’ll have to pay for keeping us stuck But it will be up to us to ... (Hook) Wake up! Cuz it’s time for the unity Wake up! Cuz it’s time for us to be free Wake up! Cuz it’s time to get it together Wake up! If you want it better ... Wake up! Take a peek inside you hold the magic Just take a good look into you Take a peek inside you hold the magic Just take a good look into you (Third Verse) Now what did you think would come From all this junk in our food keepin’ us rude and dumb With no respect for ourselves We sold our souls for so little wealth The cards have been dealt and the damage is done We’ve played ourselves now there’s no where to run And no one to blame for this silly game of waiting on a savior in Jesus’ name Our brains have been washed and hung out to dry Stolen from serpents that come from the sky In order for you and I to rise above We gotta show unselfish love ... for The one that we all come from The sun shines on everyone Our brothers and sisters, the elders and youth We all need to know the truth, so (Hook) Wake up! So you start showing love Wake up! So we could all rise above Wake up! From the dark and see the light Wake up! And make it right ... so wake up! Take a peek inside you hold the magic Just take a good look into you Take a peek inside you hold the magic Just take a good look into you
