Lyrics
[Verse 1]
(Wake up)
I want to say what's on my muthafuckin' conscience
The whole world right now is fuckin' bonkers
The internet is the brand new conquerer
So watch out for the muthafuckin' monsters
Yikes! The trolls or the taunters
Whoever controls the data, got the answers
They the one who got the code to the launcher
And they be having dinner with the pope and the mobsters
They know the cure for the cancer
Cure for the aids and they probably killed the Panthers
Put us in the cage, got us living like hamsters
Put us in the dark, but I got me a lantern
Open my third eye, then I illuminate
Really got a bird eye view when I elevate
No illuminati, baby I'm Godbody
The rapture like Blondie, waking up zombies
[Verse 2]
(Wake up)
Wake up, wake up, sound the alarm
Revolution time has come
Wake up, wake up, sound the alarm
Tell the people here come the storm
(Wake up)
Wake up, wake up, sound the alarm
Revolution time has come
Wake up, wake up, sound the alarm
Ring the alarm, ring the alarm
Ring the alarm, ring the alarm
Ring the alarm, ring the alarm
Ring the alarm, ring the alarm
Ring the alarm, ring the alarm
(Wake up)
[Verse 3]
A wise man said knowledge is king
Know thyself and you can do anything
Know thyself and you can shine like bling
Know thyself and you the king of the ring
But they don't teach kids nothin'
All they know is how to pack sugar in their muffin
They do long division, don't add to nothin'
Send them off to prison when you know they did nothin'
[Verse 4]
He on the streets 'cause he always cuttin'
The teacher ain't teachin' him nothin'
All he do is stuffin' him and stuffin' him
Stuffin' him and stuffin' him and stuffin' him
Stuffin' him and stuffin' him and stuffin' him
[Verse 5]
Stuffin' him with stuff he can't use
So he sell crack, that's what he know to do
His daddy was a hustler so he hustle too
And that's why you see the little killer in the news
It's kinda like they got us in the trap
It's kinda like they knowin' how we act
I'll be like, "Fuck your fucking laboratory, I am not a rat
I am blight, am Godbody, wise to the fact"
[Verse 6]
(Wake up)
Wake up, wake up, sound the alarm
Revolution time has come
Wake up, wake up, sound the alarm
Tell the people here come the storm
(Wake up)
Wake up, wake up, sound the alarm
Revolution time has come
Wake up, wake up, sound the alarm
Ring the alarm, ring the alarm
Ring the alarm, ring the alarm
Ring the alarm, ring the alarm
Ring the alarm, ring the alarm
Ring the alarm, ring the alarm
(Wake up)
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
[Verse 7]
(Wake up)
(Wake up)
Eyes open, who's watchin' the watchers?
Clock tickin' like we're runnin' out of options
Villains in the White House, heroes in their coffins
Leaders double cross while we kneelin' to our crosses
Who's policin' the police why they stalkin'
All lives matter until your color was the target
Fox rounding up the sheep for the slaughter
Money over people, while they reachin' for that dollar
All I see is lies on the screen
Land of the free but what the fuck's free?
What does it cost to let a **** breathe?
King had a dream but we all still asleep, uh
They rob you blind and knowledge is a crime
The shit's designed to keep you on the grind
Rise and shine 'cause now is the time
We're all Godbody if you open up your mind
Wake up
[Verse 8]
Wake up, wake up, sound the alarm
Revolution time has come
Wake up, wake up, sound the alarm
Tell the people here come the storm
Wake up, wake up, sound the alarm
Revolution time has come
Wake up, wake up, sound the alarm
Ring the alarm, ring the alarm
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
[Verse 9]
Ain't nothing impossible I tell myself
That I am possible, I know that devil is
Is out there and plottin' those plans
To stop me and put me in hospital bed
I said, "Yo, I will not be toppled
I'm down Jesus and I roll with the apostles"
We got that big love, that love that's colossal
We meditate, ain't no need to get hostile
You cannot penetrate me with that hate
We got that good vibration on vibrate
Stay on that way up 'cause we elevate
We got that big love, that love heavyweight
[Verse 10]
Wait, wait, that's the gospel
That's the muthafuckin' gospel
That's the gospel
That's the muthafuckin' gospel
[Verse 11]
I'll tell em, "Yo, the movements unstoppable
Pausin' the flow, that is not optional"
I let 'em know every thing's solvable
When you lose science, everything is plausible
I am defiant, I'm also logical
Politicians be trippin', they comical
So I sit back and listen to audio
Spiritual hip-hop, I call that hypnoticals
We Buddha boy, b-boy phenomenals
We Zulu, kill zombies and chronicles
We ain't fallin' 'cause we ain't dominoes
That revolution is on go
[Verse 12]
Go, go, that's the gospel
That's the muthafuckin' gospel
Yup, that's the gospel
That's the muthafuckin' gospel
