Wake up
And open your eyes
Stand and do nothing while everyone around you dies
Spineless
Not willing to try
You’re just too afraid to live
Scared of what you will find

Screaming
No one wants to hear your voice
You are your own fucking problem
In life you always have choice
If you would only wake up

Wake up
Respect must be earned
Not by sitting on your ass while the palaces burn
It’s hard
After you’re down for so long
But it’s what you have to do
Just suck it up and move on
All you have to do is wake up now

Sitting alone feeling sorry it just isn’t worth it
Fight for your life and your right to become your own man
Pay no attention to those who will prey on your weakness

Wake up
And now you can see
Take off the blinders and strike out for your right to be
You are
No longer a slave
You choose your own destiny from the cradle to grave

People
Living their whole lives in chains
Never trying to break out
There the ones who know true pain
Because they never wake up
Time to wake up
