Wake Up
Martin Luther King had a dream
Medgar & Martin died for that dream
Angela Davis fought for that dream Barrack Obama is a living dream
Black people we need to have a dream
Wake up from it and do better things
Lovin' each other is the only hope
Hate and destruction I don't promote
I know my blessings come from the Lord
He gives me the strength always to endure
Whatever obstacles that come my way
Even through darkness I see the day
I know the system wants you to fail
Take ya freedom & send you to jail
Get educated so that you prevail
Through discrimination, racism, hatred we need to wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
We need to Wake up
Wake Up
Wake Up
Wake Up
Killin' each other is what they want
Act like they care but they really don't
Take all the resources out the hood
Keep the money out our public schools
I think we should restore the love
Unity's stronger than any gun
To all the boy and girls here today
Keep ya head up like tupac would say
Black women you always hold it down
I see your struggle without a doubt
You are the strongest without a doubt
Without a man you still have a crown
I know the system wants you to fail
Take ya freedom & send you to jail
Get educated so you that prevail
Through discrimination, racism, hatred we need to wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
We Need to Wake up
Wake Up
Wake Up
Wake Up
We Need to Wake Up
Wake Up
Wake Up
Wake Up
We Need to Wake Up
Wake Up

Black people we need to have a dream
Wake up from it and do better things
Lovin' each other is the only hope

I know my blessings come from the Lord
He gives me the strength always to endure
Whatever obstacles that come my way
Even through darkness I see the day
I know the system wants you to fail
Take ya freedom & send you to jail
Get educated so that you prevail
