Wake up people let's look at ourselves
It seems we've put love way on the back shelves
Wake up people don't listen to stars
Just try to be true to whoever you are
Wake up mothers your children love you
They are grateful for all that you do
Wake up lovers lies get you nowhere
Just tell them the truth and they'll know that you care

And if we can wake up and see the light
And try to change all of our wrongs into rights
We could weed out all the hate that we have grown
Then maybe no one will ever have to feel alone

Wake up people take off your blindfolds
We're all God's children the young and the old
Wake up people just reach out your hand
Cause everyone here needs some help to stand

And if we can wake up and see the light
And try to change all of our wrongs into rights
We can weed out all the pain that we have grown
Then maybe no one will ever have to feel alone

And if we can wake up and see the light
And try to change all of our wrongs into rights
We can weed out all the hatred that we have grown
Then maybe no one will ever have to feel alone
So Wake up
