Wake Up

You misuse abuse lie cheat and steal Claim it's the struggle like you can't keep it real Blame it on the past things that you've been through But everyone's got scars - it's time to break through Excuses piled high like a wall you've built Dodgin' the truth covered in guilt Wake up face it stop the charade There's power in owning mistakes that you made Wake up 'cause we're tired of the blame game Life ain't easy but we all feel the same Some got it worse yet still they rise Accountability shines through every lie You look at the world call it unfair But everyone's got burdens they have to bear Pointin' fingers doesn't help you grow It's in the hard times that true colors show Victim or victor the choice is yours Take a stand or keep closing doors Wake up 'cause life's passing by Stop with the excuses and aim for the sky Wake up 'cause we're tired of the blame game Life ain't easy but we all feel the same Some got it worse yet still they rise Accountability shines through every lie Manipulation's the tool you've been using to hide Covering up pain burying pride But look around man there's struggle everywhere People fighting battles that you wouldn't dare Now knowledge is here - it's staring you down You can grow from the ashes or stay on the ground It's time to decide are you gonna stand tall? Or keep using excuses as a crutch to fall? Wake up 'cause we're tired of the blame game Life ain't easy but we all feel the same Some got it worse yet still they rise Accountability shines through every lie Time to rise up shed the chains Let go of the anger release the pain Everyone's got a road they walk It's your choice now so don't just talk Own your actions step up strong You've been asleep at the wheel too long This is your chance to be something new The world's moving forward - will you come too? Look in the mirror who do you see? A soul bound by chains or someone set free? The world's got pain but we push through the scars It's owning the past that takes you far Others got less but walk with pride They don't blame fate they swallow it inside Wake up it's time to own the truth Grow from your losses reclaim your youth No more lies no more blame We all got choices we all feel pain Accountability - that's the way to be Let go of the shame start living free Wake up 'cause we're tired of the blame game It's time for change no need for shame We all fight battles but you gotta break through The world's waiting - what are you gonna do?
