Wake up everybody No more sleepin' in bed No more backward thinkin' Time for thinkin' ahead
The world has changed So very much From what it used to be There is so much hatred War and poverty, whoa, oh
Wake up, all the teachers Time to teach a new way Maybe then they'll listen To what'cha have to say
'Cause they're the ones who's coming up And the world is in their hands When you teach the children Teach 'em the very best you can
The world won't get no better If we just let it be The world won't get no better We gotta change it, yeah Just you and me
Wake up, all the doctors Make the old people well They're the ones who suffer And who catch all the hell
But they don't have so very long Before their Judgment Day So wont'cha make them happy Before they pass away
Wake up, all the builders Time to build a new land I know we can do it If we all lend a hand
The only thing we have to do Is put it in our minds Surely things will work out 'Cause they do every time
The world won't get no better If we just let it be The world won't get no better We gotta change it, yeah Just you and me
It's the god hour In the morning I wake up Just for the breath of life I thank my maker My mom say I come from hustlers and shakers My mind builded on skyscrapers and acres You say you'll take us back to where we belong I try to write a song as sweet as the Psalms Though I am the type to bear arms and wear my heart on my sleeve Even when I fell in God I believed We the days at Weave through the maze and the season so amazing Feed them and raise them Seasons are Asian Earthquakes, wars and rumours I want us to get by But we more than consumers We more than shooters We more than looters Created in his image So God live through us And even in this generation livin' through computers Only Love, Love, Love can reboot us Come on
Wake up, everybody Wake up, everybody Need a little help, y'all Yes I do, need a little help
Need a little help, y'all ay Wake up everybody Wake up everybody Wake up everybody
