Wake Your Mind Up

[Refrain]

Wake your mind up, clear your eyes up

Move and rise up before your times up

Clock is ticking, you're caught slippin'

Stop to realize, look and listen

[Verse 1: Nick Hexum & SA]

Well I guess that’s life when you see a dark road up the way

And I guess that’s life when you gotta roll through anyway

Now don’t scream, don’t fight, fear never ever made it go away

Same ghost town as yesterday

Made you feel like love was miles away

[Refrain]

Wake your mind up, clear your eyes up

Move and rise up before your times up

Clock is ticking, you're caught slippin'

Stop to realize, look and listen

[Verse 2: Nick Hexum & SA]

Now those sleepless nights thoughts just cloud up my brain

Feeling helpless repeating the same old memories of pain

And I wish it would rain, yo

Gimme starlit skies for dreamland

I know it’s really smaller than it seems but when

The pressure gets under my skin

I just wanna get out and scream in the wind yo

[Chorus: Nick Hexum & SA]

The world were livin’ in is complicated

The streets that we walk on are dark and jaded

A wandering soul that’s filled with hatred

In it is poison, the youth is tainted

Social engineering keeps us separated

Media control is highly over rated

Ignorance is bliss to those uneducated

Listen to the message cuz it’s time we faced it

[Refrain]

Wake your mind up, clear your eyes up

Move and rise up before your times up

Clock is ticking, you're caught slippin'

Stop to realize, look and listen

[Verse 3: Nick Hexum & SA]

I’m controller of my destination

Gotta change my mind to help me break away

The sun creeps over the hillside

To shed this light no man could take away

And I guess that’s life you see a new side from the norm

A new direction and meaning to the form

And the calm in the eye of a storm, yo

[Chorus: Nick Hexum & SA]

Show me a desert that can never be drenched

I’ll show you a thirst that can never be quenched

Temptation chronicles, the story of my life

Been spent on a dose of balancing strife

Inspiration it comes and goes

You can bet when it hits I’m on the phone

Singing to my voicemail trying to get it down

In a sensation of shape shifting sound

[Bridge: Nick Hexum]

You’re telling fables to cover up your foibles

From over indulgence on things you find enjoyable

Designed to take my mind away from truth

Try to make me out to play the sleuth

They want you to think that someone’s watching you

So they can make up a set of rules for you

I’m just trying to find a path that I can stomach

Just trying to make some sense out from it, uh

Don’t stop don’t stop what you got

Don’t stop til' you find the sweet spot

[Refrain]

Wake your mind up, clear your eyes up

Move and rise up before your times up

Clock is ticking, you're caught slippin'

Stop to realize, look and listen
