Awake by The Heavy North

Awake. You really think that you're awake?
You're still asleep for heaven's sake,
They want to see you shake, you think that you're Awake?

A lie. You get the truth based on a lie.
All to happy to divide, they want to see us cry,
The truth based on a lie.

Bones. Yeh we're only flesh and bones,
Words don't hurt like stick and stones, We're people we're not clones,
You think that you are free?

We're all slaves to the pound sign,
It ain't your fault, and it ain't mine.

Offend. Oh so easy to offend,
Are we foes or are we friends? What message do we send?
Oh so easy to offend.

All hid, where's the money that they've hid?
Sat on top of pyramids, all questions they forbid
Tell me, where's that money?

We're all slaves to the pound sign,
It ain't your fault, and it ain't mine.

Retire, take off the chains when you retire,
Just before you life expires, tell me what does that inspire?
When they take off your chains?

Hate, it inspires only hate,
Tell me is this all our fate? Let's listen to debate,
You think that you're Awake?

We're all slaves to the pound sign,
It ain't your fault, and it ain't mine.

We're all slaves to the pound sign,
It ain't your fault, and it ain't mine.
