I Wake Up (Interlude) / Stay Woke

 

I Wake Up (Interlude) / Stay Woke

(album: ASASE YAA - 2015)


[I Wake Up]

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 africans, 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

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 blue, 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

[Stay Woke]

Five 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, '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 tryna keep me sleep and dumb
'Cause that's what's comfortable
Catching zzz's while their alchemy eating pupils closed
And I'm not living life asleep so thandi's staying woke

Stretching, yawning, feening
For the comfort of your sleeping
Stretching, yawning, feening
For the comfort of your sleeping

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

Face the truth
Find comfort in the day
Sun will rise and dreams will fade away

Served my sentence
I'm 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 that's what's comfortable
Catching zzz's while their alchemy eating pupils closed
And I'm not living life asleep niambi staying woke

Wake up, wake up

klaar
