Wake Up and Give Yourself a Chance to Live

I know sometimes, during the hassles of the day You feel that, "What the heck? The harder I try, the rougher it get hit" And when you do everything you can to make everything be alright And meet your bills, you understand And your loved one seems to think that, uh "Hey, you're not trying, you can do a little bit better" Nobody understands where you're coming from, you say to yourself "Hey, I gotta prove it to me 'cause I know where I'm at" And this is what you do I know sometimes you feel the world has turned its back on you But don't give up, it'll come through for you So wake up, baby Wake up, baby Give yourself a chance You owe that to yourself So wake up, baby, give yourself a chance to live This morning I got up, feeling kinda down But I say that's always the way If you get yourself up off the ground Oh, oh, oh, let me wake up And give myself a chance I got to wake right up And you wake right up and give yourself a chance to live I know you're just human And sometimes that can be a sho'nuff ruin But when you feel it's too hard Just take it to the Supreme Force, and that's God Mm, mm, oh, wake up, baby I've got to wake right up I've got to wake on up Everybody should wake on up Give yourself a chance to live It's all there for you, just go and get it too Wake on up You owe it to yourself and no one else Wake up, baby, give yourself a chance to live Mm, I feel so good, since I woke myself on up
