Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

Oh yes, you hit the snooze button
Don'tcha know you up and fell asleep again
You did not even fight
Well, it's just another song
Talkin' 'bout how you let them take your rights
Another redundant verse about how you refused to fight and lost
What cost? Your cause has got no champion
How could you hope to win by just complaining?
Now it's raining on your parade
Decisions made could cost you dearly
Not just your money but your freedom
Are you wealthy? Improper choices could be deadly
They took your so-called rights
You did not even fight
Well, here's your motherfucking wake-up call
And there just ain't way around it
Caught you asleep once again, we ain't havin' it
Got freedom for them to do just what they tell ya
You missed the train of thought
You refuse to be taught a lesson
Now this is what I'm guessing
You'll be held accountable
Things you didn't wanna know, you're stressing
Now with your head that they keep messing
They took your so-called rights
You did not even fight
You had bad dreams, but you fell asleep again
While you were busy fuckin' sleeping
You know your government was creeping
Someone left the door unlocked
You see, your life was bought and sold
Yes, to the highest bidder
Left you in sitcom hell
So convinced you're doing well
You sit back, synapses are attacked
American Gladiators are the only thing they're giving back
You're dying and in your mind while they keep lying
They took your so-called rights, you better fucking
(Wake up!) Now yes, you hit the snooze button
Don'tcha know you up and fell asleep again
(Fight!) They took your so-called rights
And again, and again, you fell asleep again
(Wake up!) Now yes, you hit the snooze button
Don'tcha know you up and fell asleep again
(Fight!) They took your so-called rights
You did not even fight
No, that's no true, wait
I said, yeah, you're doing what they say
Don't you fall asleep today, no way
Watch out
(Awake, awake) No, that's no true way
(Awake, awake) I said, yeah, you're doing what they say
(Awake, awake) Don't you fall asleep today
No way (awake), No way, they've got to pay
(Awake, awake) No, that's no true way
(Awake, awake) I said, yeah, you're doing what they say
(Awake, awake) Don't you fall asleep today
(Awake) No way (awake)
Now that I've given you a message
You've got a mess but you can salvage
Continue to grow and you'll know
That little things in life can make a difference
You gotta beat that politician
Take back those given rights you better fuckin'
(Wake up!) Now yes, you hit the snooze button
Don'tcha know you up and fell asleep again
(Fight!) They took your so-called rights
And again, and again you fell asleep again
(Wake up!) Now yes, you hit the snooze button
Don'tcha know you up and fell asleep again
(Fight!) They took your so-called rights
You did not even...
No, no, no, no, no!
You did not even fight, fight, fight
They took your so-called rights
You did not even fight
