"Stay Woke" (Jessica Lá Rel)
Redbone remix (New Lyric by Jessica La Rel)
Daylight
I woke up feeling like I ought to fear life
I used to feel that way but now I know right
I try to muster up my pride
So long
We waited for a place to call our home
We got outlined in chalk outside of our homes
Thinking we could change their minds
If I want it I can have it
If it's freedom I gotta make it my own
If I want it I gotta take it
So stay woke
They'll be creeping
You stay ready
Or stay dreaming
But I stay woke
They'll be creeping
When you close your eyes
Too late
We seen it all before, so it's just too late
The past is but our proof so we can now say
To trust is just a waste of time
If I want it I can have it
If it's freedom I gotta make it my own
If i want it I gotta take it
So stay woke
They'll be creeping
You stay ready
While freedom dreaming stay woke
They'll be creeping
When you close your eyes
Mark 13:37 -- And Jesus said to them, “But what I say to you I say to all: Stay woke!”
