311 - Wake Your Mind Up lyrics
Wake your mind up, clear your eyes up<br>Move and rise up before your times up<br>Clock is ticking, your caught slippin'<br>Stop to realize, look and listen<br><br>Well I guess that's life<br>When you see a dark road up the way<br>And I guess that's life<br>When you gotta roll through anyway<br>Now don't scream, don't fight<br>Fear never ever made it go away<br>Same ghost town as yesterday<br>Made you feel like love was miles away<br><br>Wake your mind up, clear your eyes up<br>Move and rise up before your times up<br>Clock is ticking, your caught slippin'<br>Stop to realize, look and listen<br><br>Now those sleepless nights<br>Thoughts just cloud up my brain<br>Feeling helpless, repeating the same<br>Old memories of pain and I wish it would rain, yo<br>Gimmie starlit skies for dreamland<br>I know it's really smaller than it seems but when<br>The pressure gets under my skin<br>I just wanna get out and scream in the wind, yo<br><br>The world we're livin in is complicated<br>The streets that we walk on are dark and jaded<br>A wandering suld that's filled with hatred<br>In it is poison, the youth is tainted<br>Social engineering keeps us separated<br>Media control is highly overrated<br>Ignorance is bliss to those uneducated<br>Listen to the message cuz it's time we faced it<br><br>Wake your mind up, clear your eyes up<br>Move and rise up before your times up<br>Clock is ticking, your caught slippin'<br>Stop to realize, look and listen<br><br>I'm controller of my destination<br>Gotta change my mind to help me break away<br>The sun creeps over the hillside to shed this light<br>No man could take away<br>And I guess that's life<br>You see a new side from the norm<br>A new direction and meaning to the form<br>And the calm in the eye of a storm, yo<br><br>Show me a desert that can never be drenched<br>I'll show you a thirst that can never be quenched<br>Temptation chronicles, the story of my life<br>Been spent on a dose of balancing strife<br>Inspiration it comes and goes<br>You can bet when it hits, I'm on the phone<br>Singing to my voicemail trying to get it down<br>In a sensation of shape shifting sound<br>You're telling fables to cover up your foibles<br>From overindulgence on things you find enjoyable<br>Designed to take my mind away from the truth<br>Try to make me out to play the sleuth<br>They want you to think someone's watching you<br>So they can make up a set of rules for you<br>I'm just trying to find a path that I can stomach<br>Just trying to make some sense out from it, unh<br>Don't stop, don't stop what you got<br>Don't stop til you find the sweet spot<br><br>Wake your mind up, clear your eyes up<br>Move and rise up before your times up<br>Clock is ticking, your caught slippin'<br>Stop to realize, look and listen
