Snooze Button

Now yes, you hit the snooze button
I throw you up and fell asleep again
You did not even fight

Well, it's just another song
Talkin' 'bout how you let them take your rights
Another redundant verse
'Bout how you refused to fight and lost
What cost? Your cost has got no champion

How could you hope to win? By just complaining
Now it's raining on your parade, decisions made could cost you dearly
Not just your money but your freedom
Are you wealthy? Improper choices could be deadly
They took your so-called rights, you did not even fight

Well, here's your motherfuckin' wake-up call and there's just no way around it
Caught you asleep once again, and we ain't havin' it
Got freedom for you to do just what they tell ya'
You missed the train of thought
You did refuse to be taught a lesson

Now this is what I'm guessing, you'll be held accountable
Things you didn't want to know, you're stressin'
Now with your head they keep messin'
They took your so-called rights, you did not even fight
You hit the snooze button, you fell asleep again

While you were busy fuckin' sleepin'
You know, your government was creepin'
Someone left the door unlocked
You were asleep, your life was bought and sold
Yes, to the highest bidder

Left you in sitcom hell so convinced you're doing well
You sit back, synapses are attacked
American gladiators are the only thing they're givin' back
You're dying and in your mind, while they keep lying
They took your so-called rights, you better fuckin'

(Wake up!) Now yes, you hit the snooze button
I throw you up and fell asleep again (fight!)
They took your so-called rights and again, and again you fell asleep again
(Wake up!) Now yes, you hit the snooze button
I throw you up and fell asleep again (fight!)
They took your so-called rights
You did not even fight!

No, that's no true way
I said, "Yeah, you're doing what they say"
Don't you fall asleep today, no way
Watch out! (Awake, awake)
No, that's no true way (awake, awake)
I said, "Yeah, you're doing what they say!" (Awake, awake)

Don't you fall asleep today
No way (awake), no way, they've got to pray (awake, awake)
No, that's no true way (awake, awake)
I said, "Yeah, you're doing what they say!" (Awake, awake)
Don't you fall asleep today
No way (awake, awake)

Now that I've given you a message
You've got a mess, but you can salvage
Continue to grow, and you'll know that little things in life can make a difference
You don't gotta be some politician
Take back those given rights, you better fuckin'

(Wake up!) Now yes, you hit the snooze button
I throw you up and fell asleep again (fight!)
They took your so-called rights and again, and again you fell asleep again
(Wake up!) Now yes, you hit the snooze button
I throw you up and fell asleep again (fight!)
They took your so-called rights
You did not even!

No, no, no, no, no you did not even fight!
Fight!
Fight!
They took your so-called rights
You did not even fight
