Have I been sleeping
I ve been so still
Afraid of crumbling
Have I been careless
Dismissing all the distant rumblings
Take me where I am supposed to be
To comprehend the things that I can t see
Cause I need to move
I need to wake up
I need to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Something is got to break up
I ve been asleep
And I need to wake up
Now
And as a child
I danced like it was 1999
My dreams were wild
But the promise of this new world
Would be mine
Now
I am throwing off the carelessness of youth
To listen to n inconvenient truth
Well I need to move
I need to wake up
I need to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Something is got to break up
I ve been asleep
And I need to wake up
Now
I am not an island
I am not alone
I am my intentions
Trapped here in this flesh and bone
And I need to move
I need to wake up
I need to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Something is got to break up
I ve been asleep
And I need to wake up
I want to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Something is got to break up
I ve been asleep
And I need to wake up
