I Need To Wake Up Have I been sleeping?I’ve been so still, afraid of crumblingHave I been careless?Dismissing all the distant rumblingsTake me where I am supposed to beTo comprehend the things that I can’t see'Cause I need to move, I need to wake upI need to change, I need to shake upI need to speak out, something’s got to break upI’ve been asleep and I need to wake up nowAnd as a child I danced like it was 1999And my dreams were wildThe promise of this new world would be mineNow I am throwing off the carelessness of youthTo listen to an inconvenient truthThat I need to move, I need to wake up

I need to change, I need to shake upI need to speak out, something’s got to break upI’ve been asleep and I need to wake up nowI am not an islandI am not aloneI am my intentionsTrapped here in this flesh and boneAnd I need to move, I need to wake upI need to change, I need to shake upI need to speak out, something’s got to break upI’ve been asleep and I need to wake up nowI want to change, I need to shake upI need to speak out, oh, something’s got to break upI’ve been asleep and I need to wake up now
