Lyrics
You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape

'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake

If you'd open your eyes then maybe you'd see what's at stake

You're sleeping, you're sleeping

You make a lot of money and you live in a mansion

And pretty much got everything that you could ever imagine

But you feel like even though you got everything in the world

You got nothing, so what you do then is you start going backwards

You runnin' in a direction

And you lookin' for something that isn't real

And all you know is that you just gotta have it

What you're doin' is sleepin'

And thinking that you're awake and you're not

And the problem is that you don't know what you're after

So you put everything that you have into what you do

Hoping that one day maybe you don't have to feel like you're empty

But as you get older a lot of weight on your shoulders is getting heavy

Then you look back and you start to regret things

You only get one life

And every time you lookin' at yours

You feel like everything you have is a waste!

And the problem and the reason you could never fill a hole in your life

Is because you were never awake

You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape

'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake

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

You wake up in the morning

But you feel like you never got up and go to work

And you feelin' like you ain't got a purpose

And you tryna get motivated but everything you do turns into a mess

Like you ain't nothing but worthless

And, yo, you look around

A lot of these other people you lookin' at

To you, you describe as perfect

So you point a finger at God and tell him to do his job

And fix ya' life up cause nothin' is workin'

And you will try to hide and make it seem like it's nothin'

But really you feel like everything is crashin' around you

And you develop a problem in trustin' in other people

Which later became an issue that will mentally pound you

You only get one life

But every time you lookin' at yours you feel like all you ever see are mistakes

And the problem and the reason you could never move forward in life

Is because you were never awake

Wake up

You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape

'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake

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

You spend your life in a dream that you can't escape

'Cause you live your life in a coma, you're never awake

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
