Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake
If you'd open your eyes, then maybe you'd see what's at stake
You're sleeping, you're sleeping
[Verse 2]
You make a lot of money and you live in a mansion
And pretty much got everything that you could ever imagine
But you feel like even though you got everything in the world
You got nothin', so what you do then is you start goin' backwards
You runnin' in direction and you lookin' for somethin' that isn't real
And all you know is that you just gotta have it
What you're doin' is sleepin'
And thinkin' that you're awake and you're not
And the problem is that you don't know what you're after
So you put everything that you have into what you do
Hopin' that one day, maybe, you don't have to feel like you're empty
But as you get older, a lot of weight on your shoulders is gettin' heavy
Then you look back and you start to regret things
You only get one life and every time you lookin' at yours
You feel like everything you have is a waste
And the problem and the reason you could never fill a hole in your life
Is because you were never awake
[Verse 3]
You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake
[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
[Verse 4]
You wake up in the mornin'
But feel like you never got up, and go to work
And you feelin' like you ain't got a purpose
And you tryna get motivated, but everything you do turns into a mess
Like you ain't nothin' but worthless
And, yo, you look around
A lot of these other people you lookin' at
To you, you describe as perfect
So you point a finger at God and tell him to do his job
And fix ya life up 'cause nothin' is workin'
And you will try to hide it and make it seem like it's nothin'
But really, you feel like everything is crashin' around you
And you developed a problem in trusting in other people
Which later, became an issue that would mentally pound you
You only get one life, but every time you lookin' at yours
You feel like all you ever see are mistakes
And the problem and the reason you could never move forward in life
Is because you were never awake
Wake up
[PreChorus]
You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake
[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
[Outro]
You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
