I Need to Wake Up Lyrics

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’s 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 And my dreams were wild The promise of this new world would be mine
Now I am throwing off the carelessness of youth To listen to an inconvenient truth
That I need to move, I need to wake up I need to change, I need to shake up I need to speak out, something’s 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’s got to break up I’ve been asleep and I need to wake up now
I want to change, I need to shake up I need to speak out, oh, something’s got to break up I’ve been asleep and I need to wake up now
