Wake Up

Wake Up 1. You said you wanna have peace You wanted peace that would never cease But you can never have that peace Until you learn to listen To the cries of people dying in the streets 2. You said you wanna be free And put an end to life's misery But you can never be truly free Until you learn to speak For them whose voices have been silenced and stilled So everybody now Wake up, wake up Wake up, wake up From your delusions Your promised world is an illusion Killing's never gonna be the solution Stand up, stand up Stand up, stand up Fight this confusion The world is waiting for an absolution Not another bloody execution 3. You said you're looking for love What everybody's been dreaming of But you can never find that love Until you find forgiveness Show some kindness Mercy and compassion So everybody now Wake up, wake up Wake up, wake up From your delusions Your promised world is an illusion Killing's never gonna be the solution Stand up, stand up Stand up, stand up Fight this confusion The world is waiting for an absolution Not another bloody execution They cry for mercy They cry for justice They ask forgiveness They cry for love They cry for mercy They cry for justice They ask forgiveness They cry for love Wake up, wake up Wake up, wake up From your delusions Your promised world is an illusion Killing's never gonna be the solution Stand up, stand up Stand up, stand up Fight this confusion The world is waiting for an absolution Not another bloody execution Wake up, wake up Wake up, wake up From your delusions Your promised world is an illusion Killing's never gonna be the solution Stand up, stand up Stand up, stand up Fight this confusion The world is waiting for an absolution Not another bloody execution
