Lyrics

0:09You spend your life
0:10In a dream
0:12That you can't escape
0:18'Cause you live your life in a coma
0:21You're never awake
0:27If you'd open your eyes
0:29Then maybe you'd see what's at stake
0:36You're sleeping
0:40You're sleeping
0:45You make a lot of money and you
0:46Live in a mansion
0:47And pretty much got everything
0:48That you could ever imagine
0:49But you feel like
0:50Even though you got everything
0:51In the world
0:51You got nothing
0:52So what you do then is you start
0:53Going backwards
0:54You runnin' in a direction
0:55And you lookin' for something
0:56That isn't real
0:57And all you know is
0:57That you just gotta have it
0:58What you're doin' is sleepin'
0:59And thinking that you're awake
1:00And you're not
1:01And the problem is that
1:02You don't know what you're after
1:03So you put everything that
1:04You have into what you do
1:05Hoping that one day maybe
1:06You don't have to feel
1:07Like you're empty
1:07But as you get older a lot of weight on
1:09Your shoulders is getting heavy
1:10Then you look back and
1:11You start to regret things
1:12You only get one life
1:13And every time you lookin' at yours
1:15You feel like everything
1:16You have is a waste
1:17And the problem and
1:17The reason you could never fill
1:18A hole in your life
1:19Is because you were never awake
1:22You spend your life
1:24In a dream
1:25That you can't escape
1:31'Cause you live your life
1:33In a coma you're never awake
1:40Wake up wake up wake up wake up
1:45Wake up wake up wake up wake up
1:49Wake up wake up wake up wake up
1:54Wake up wake up wake up
1:58You wake up in the morning
1:59But you feel like
1:59You never got up and go to work
2:01And you feelin' like
2:01You ain't got a purpose and you
2:03Tryna get motivated but
2:04Everything you do turns into a
2:05Messlike you ain't nothing but worthless
2:07And yo you look around
2:08A lot of these other people you lookin' at
2:10To you you describe as perfect
2:11So you point a finger at god and tell him
2:13To do his job
2:14And fix ya' life up cause nothin' is workin'
2:16And you will try to hide and make it seem
2:18Like it's nothin'
2:18But really you feel like
2:19Everything is crashin' around you and
2:21You develop a problem in trustin'
2:22In other people
2:23Which later became an issue
2:24That will mentally pound you
2:25You only get one life
2:26But every time you lookin' at
2:28Yours you feel like
2:28All you ever see are mistakes
2:30And the problem and the reason
2:31You could never move
2:32Forward in life
2:32Is because you were never awake
2:35Wake up
2:35You spend your life
2:37In a dream
2:38That you can't escape
2:44'Cause you live your life
2:46In a coma you're never awake
2:53Wake up wake up wake up wake up
2:58Wake up wake up wake up wake up
3:03Wake up wake up wake up wake up
3:07Wake up wake up wake up wake up
3:12You spend your life
3:13In a dream dream
3:15That you can't escape can't escape
3:19Wake up
3:21'Cause you live your life
3:22In a coma you're never awake
3:26Wake 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
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

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

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 dream
That you can't escape can't escape
Wake up
'Cause you live your life
In a coma you're never awake
Wake up wake up wake up wake up
