LYRICS

Wake up everybody no more sleepin’ in bed

No more backward thinkin’ time for thinkin’ ahead

The world has changed so very much

From what it used to be

There is so much hatred war and poverty

Oh yeah

Wake up all the teachers time to teach a new way

Maybe then they’ll listen to whatcha have to say

Cause they’re the ones who’s coming up

And the world is in their hands

When you teach the children

Teach ’em the very best you can

Oh yeah

The world won’t get no better

If we just let it be

The world won’t get no better

We gotta change it yeah,

Just you and me

Wake up all the doctors make the ol’ people well

They’re the ones who suffer an’ who catch all the hell

But they don’t have so very long before the Judgment Day

So won’tcha make them happy before they pass away

Wake up all the builders time to build a new land

I know we can do it if we all lend a hand

The only thing we have to do is put it in our minds

Surely things will work out cause they do every time

The world won’t get no better

If we just let it be

The world won’t get no better

We gotta change it yeah,

Just you and me

Yeah, yeah

It’s the God hour

The morning I wake up

Just for the breath of life I thank my maker

My mom say I come from hustlers and shakers

My mom buidin’ on skyscrapers and acres

He said take us back to where we belong

I try to write a song

As sweet as the Psalms

Though I’m the type to bare arms

And wear my heart on my sleeve

Even when I fell in God I believe

Read the days that weave through the maze

The seasons so amazing

Feed them and raised them

Seasons are aging

Earthquakes, wars, and rumors

I want us to get by but

We’re more than consumers

We more than shooters, more than looters

Created in this image so God live through us

And even in this generation, living through computers

Only love love love can reboot us

Wake up everybody no more sleepin’ in bed

Wake up, everybody

Need a little help,

Can’t do it alone

Need a little help y’all

C’mon c’mon c’mon c’mon

Need a little help, y’all

Can’t do it alone

Need a little help, y’all

Can’t do it alone

Oh, wake up everybody

Wake up everybody

Wake up everybody
