Wake Up

Give me the light when the sun goes down,
cuz what goes around comes around.
Give 'em a fight yes it's proper bound,
you see what goes around comes around.
Now the gloves are off and the talk is done,
I see clearly now what must be done.
Go back to the place, back when you were young,
you weren't afraid of anything, you weren't afraid of anyone.

(I) So wake up
Got no money when I wake up strong,
and then another worry comes along.
I found a light 'n I'm 'a turn it on,
So wake up wake up wake up.

All of my teachers' told me I was wrong,
but what don't kill you will make you strong.
What I found was I was right all along,
and if it don't kill you it make you strong.

Yes I realize just what I've become,
I take that shit head on, oh however it come.
Got my direction back, all my friends are around,
I feel the change, I feel alive, I feel the lights, I feel the sound.

(I) So wake up,
Got no money when I wake up strong,
and then another worry comes along.
I found a light 'n I'm 'a turn it on,
So wake up wake up wake up

And if your feelin' like you don't belong,
it's time to step into a brand new dawn.
You found the light now come and turn it on,
wake up wake up wake up

Hard to live, when your cup is half full,
oh and it's hard to live, now don't you be nobody's fool,
So very hard to live, yes it's hard to live
yes it's hard to live, so very hard to live,
that's how we live and learn, don't make it hard to live,
that's how we live and learn, oh it's hard to live,
live and learn, it's hard to live,
live and learn, it's hard to live,
you live and learn, you have to rise and shine.

(I) So wake up,
Got no money when I wake up strong,
and then another worry comes along.
I found a light 'n I'm 'a turn it on,
So wake up wake up wake up

And if your feelin' like you don't belong,
it's time to step into a brand new dawn.
You found the light now come and turn it on,
wake up wake up wake up,
I wake up,
wake up wake up wake up,
I wake up,
wake up wake up wake up.
