I Wake Up/stay Woke

Oshun


[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 thati'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 zz's while their alchemy eating pupils closed
And I'm not living life asleep so thandi's staying woke

[Niambi]
Stretching, yawning, feening
For the comfort of your sleeping

[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

[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
It's tiring but better than a wake like funerals
They trying to keep me sleep and dumb cause thats whats comfortable
Catching zz's while their alchemy eating pupils closed
And I'm not living life asleep niambi staying woke
Wake up, wake up
