Wake Up Rise Up Lyrics - Singles - Peyoti For President

Now I don't wanna shit, but there's something goin' down 

Just 20 years from now the sun & the moon and the clouds 

Could be different from today 

Not too pleasant they say 

The man in the suit with the starched buttoned collar is sweating to death but we're too hot to bother 

We go so fast that the world will never catch us 

At least that's what we'd like 

But we, scorch the sky with our careless lives 

Look at the people that we vote to represent us 

the mess that they now present us with 

Oh I oh I, it makes me want to cry 

Wake Up, Rise Up 

Listen to your conscience 

21st Century up-rising is so overdue 

And it's down to me and you 

It's your life their lies you choose 

What you're gonna do 

Or just sit back, relax, turn on the TV 

It's their to control us 

To sedate manipulate and console us 

& just in case you didn't know 

I thought I'd come and tell you so cause 

We the People, break the system, 

Just in case you thought that they were listening forget... 

They're too busy beatin' each other 

You're mother, you're father you're sister, you're brother..
