Wyclef Jean - Wake Up Everybody lyrics

[Verse 1: Wyclef]

Wake up

Wake up

You?ve got the power

You?ve got the power

My people got the east yo you've got to wake up

Midwest dirty south yo you've gotta stand up

All my homies in the west yo you got to wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

(Wake up, Wake up, Wake up, Wake up)

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

(Wake up, Wake up, Wake up, Wake up)

Wake up

Wake up

[Verse 2]

[Mary J. Blige:]

Wake everybody no more sleeping in bed

No more backwards thinkin time for thinkin ahead

The world has changed so very much from what it use to be

There?s so much hatetred war and poverty

[Monica:]

Wake up all the teachers timing for teaching new ways

Maybe they'll listen to what you say

Cuz there the ones who's coming up the worlds are in there hands

When you teach the children teach them the very best you can

[Eve:]

Bring peace do we mean it

Can you feel it when we scream it out loud do you believe that we need it

Do you believe that it could get right?

Do you believe that the children of the world deserve a good life?

Well if you do it's time to wake up your mind

We can make it betta and I know it could take some time

But we gotta start somewhere

How bout from you and me

From us it goes to other then we can have our unity

[Musiq:]

Wake all the doctors make the old people well

They?re the ones who suffer and catch all the hell

But they don't have so very long before the judgment day

So won't you make them happy before they pass away?

[Ashanti:]

Wake up all the builders? time to build a new land

I know we can do it long as we lend a hand

The only thing we have to do is put it our mind

Make sure the things work out

[Ashanti & Faith:]

Cuz they do it all the time

[Fabolous:]

I ain't here to take up yall time

I came to shake up yall mind its every bodies wake up call time

I can't sleep to long why they do the people wrong

Let?s clean the world up before they sweep you gone

This is real talk so you can peak through songs

So when you feel weak these words will keep you strong

And help make a change for the betta

It?s hard for one to do it but we can make some changes together

[Everybody:]

The world won't get no better (get no better)

If we just let it be (let it be)

The world won't get no better we gotta change it yeah you and me

The world won't get no better

If we just let it be (let it be, let it be, let it be)

The won't get no better we gotta change it yeah you and me

[Jadakiss:]

Set a goal put a plan up here we gotta stand up here

Give thanks to the man up stairs

Put the egos and the prides to the side regardless

And just be role models, parents, and artists

We can make a change or make it the hardest

If you gone make a baby you should make it the smartest

Letem know good from bad right from wrong

How to roll wit the punches as life goes on

And the stress won't take toll if you don't sweat it

World won't get no betta if we don't let it

Let the negative energy ride

Keep hope alive it bout time we open our eyes

[Jahiem:]

Wake everybody no more sleeping in bed

No more backwards thinkin time for thinkin ahead

The world has changed so very much from what it use to be

There?s so much hatetred war and poverty

[Missy Elliot:]

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Yup well yall besta vote

I don't care about the guns you told

Listen to me like you listen to fernheit 911

Ain?t no time for the second guess

The words I speak (Wake up)

The ones who sleep leave the ships fix your mouth to teach

Mcs teach the kids what?s peace

They don't have to worry bout the police

We make them risk so they don't have to the

Every artist here on this track (oh)

Will make a change for young kats (oh)

this is for everyone white or black

You betta go and vote and get up off yo back

[Everybody:]

Wake up everybody on more sleepin (as life rolls on lift your head lift your voice up)

Wake up everybody on more sleepin (you see the power of the people have the choice to reunite love)

Wake up everybody on more sleepin (not a choice it's a gift of people have to fight for)

Wake up everybody time for thinkin

Wake up everybody no more sleepin (take the opportunity)

Wake up everybody no more sleepin (your responsibility yeah)

Wake up everybody no more sleepin (your voice has to be heard)

Wake up everybody time for thinkin (save the world, save the world)

Wake up everybody no more sleepin

Wake up everybody no more sleepin

Wake up everybody no more sleepin

Wake up everybody time for thinking.
