[THANDI]

Observe brothers, observe sisters

Uncle sam, uncle tom, big brother, the whole family is coming for your left fist

Picket signs ain't gon make change

Learn your principles

You repping revolution

But work for the institution

When will you declare your destiny?

When will you obliterate all that associate

With the forged realities of the day

Insubordination is alive

Young afrikans, you are blinded

There will be no resting in peace

There is no alternative

RE EVOLVE until you're uneasiness is solved

Compliance does not exist

Hear the sounds of your alarm

No snooze with sooth the tears on pews

Muses, music, blues and yellows

There will be no resting in peace

[NIAMBI]

What is revolution

What is solution

When no knowledge

The problem, see

Do you?

I stay woke

Stay broke

Stay choking

On my pride

And if my phone rings

Please know that

I'm inside my self

My eyes burn blu

For it's sizing up

Your time to be through

With coon calling

I'm reading you

Feeding you

Pleading you

Wake up
Wake up

(VERSE 1)
[Thandi]

5 more minutes, my dream ain't finished

I don't feel like getting up today

The worlds too cold, don't got clean clothes

I'm too scared to face the truth today

But i still gotta get up, cuz my dreaming tells me so

Reflecting truth and fate like divination from the soul

Its tiring but better than a wake like funerals

They tryna keep me sleep and dumb cause thats whats comfortable

Catching zzz's while their alchemy eating pupils closed

And I'm not living life asleep so thandi's staying woke

(HOOK)
[Niambi]

Stretching, yawning, feening

For the comfort of your sleeping

2x

VERSE 2
[Thandi]

Picking and choosing when you conscious like narcolepsy

Thinking you equal in the pot that they say is melting

Saying you righteous but you pray at the masters church

And when you're told bout yourself you get your feelings hurt

(BRIDGE)
[Niambi]

Face the truth

Find comfort in the day

Sun will rise and dreams will fade away

(VERSE 3)
[Niambi]

Served my sentence

Glad that's finished

I see the world is waking up today

Folks too bold

Old spirits growing

Shining light upon the truth today

But i still got to get up, cause my dreaming tells me so

Reflecting truth and fate like divination from the soul

Its tiring but better than a wake like funerals

They trying to keep me sleep and dumb cause thats whats comfortable

Catching zzz's while their alchemy eating pupils closed

And I'm not living life asleep niambi staying woke

Wake up, wake up
