Awake (Album Version) - Julian Marley

Whoa whoa

Whoa whoa

Whoa whoa

Ay for many years we've been lost in our tears

When will we wake We've got to wake

Ay for many years the prophets have spoken

But will we hear

And still we can't find no peace of mind

When will we wake We've got to wake

When will we wake awake We've got to wake awake

Said we've fought so many battles for who

Yet our minds remain in shackles

'Cause if we play dead and blind we'll never see the sign

When will we wake We've got to wake

When will we wake awake We've got to wake awake ay

From down on time began

Runners polluting by means of exploiting the land

And they tried to close the open doors

Before we slipped through

If we don't know by now tell you my friend we'll never know

If you stand subdued tell me now would you go back

The game was set to lose got to play to win it yeah

Lust of life is greed it's churning poverty

When will we wake We've got to wake

Oh all all I wanna know

When will we wake awake We've got to wake awake ay

Open up your eyes and you will see

Open up your eyes and you will see

Open up your eyes and you will see

Open up your eyes and you will see

Open up your eyes and you will see

Open up your eyes and you will see

Open up your eyes and you will see oh
