Wake Up Everybody Lyrics


    [Wyclef Jean]
    My people in the east, sure, you gotta wake up
    Midwest, dirty south, girl you gotta stand up
    All my homies in the west, sure you gotta wake up
    Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up

    [Mary J. Blige]
    Wake up everybody, no more sleeping in bed
    No more backwards thinking, time for thinking ahead
    The world has changed so very much from what it used to be
    There's so much hatred, war and poverty

    [Monica]
    Wake up all the teachers, time to teach a new way
    Maybe then they'll listen to what you have to say

    [Claudette Ortiz]
    Cause they're the one's who coming up
    The world is in their hands
    When you teach the children
    Teach them the better questions you can

    [Eve]
    Uh, huh, scream peace, do we mean it
    Can you feel it when we scream it out loud, do you believe that we need it
    Do you believe that it could get right
    Do you believe that the children of the world deserve a good life
    Well if you do it's time to wake up your mind
    We can make it better and I know it might take some time
    But we gotta start somewhere, how bout wit you and me
    From us it goes to others then we'll have our unity

    [Musiq]
    Wake up all the doctors, make the old people aware
    They're the ones who suffer, catch all the hair
    But they don't have so very long before their judgement day
    So won't you make them happy before they pass away

    [Ashanti] (Faith Evans)
    Wake up all the builders, time to build a new land
    I know we can do it long as we lend a hand
    The only thing we have to do is put it in my minds
    And surely things will work out cause they do it everytime (do it everytime)

    [Fabolous] (Brandy)
    I ain't here to take up y'all time
    I came to shake up y'all mind it's everybody's wake up call time
    I can't sleep too long while they do the people wrong
    Let's clean the world up before they sweep then gone
    This is real talk you can peep through songs
    So when you feel weak these words will keep you strong
    And help make a change for the better
    It's hard for one to do it but we can make some change if we do it together (heyy, yeah)

    The world will get no better, if we just let it be
    The world will get no better, we gotta change it yeah, you and me

    [Jadakiss]
    Set it off for the plan up here, we gotta stand up here
    And give thanks to the man upstairs
    Put the egos and the pride to the side regardless
    And just be role models, parents, artists
    And the stress won't take toll if you don't sweat it
    World won't get no better if we don't let it
    Let the negative energy ride, keep hope alive
    It's bout time that we opened out eyes, wake up

    [Jaheim]
    Wake up everybody, no more sleeping in bed
    No more backwards thinking, time for thinking ahead
    The world has changed so very much from what it used to be
    There's so much hatred, war and poverty

    [Missy Elliott]
    Wooooo, yep, we all best to vote
    I don't care about the guns you tote
    Listen to me like you listened to Fahrenheit 9/11
    Ain't no time for the second guessin'
    The words I speak, wake up, the ones who sleep
    Now leave the ships, fix your mouth to teach
    MC's teach the kids what's peace, they don't have to worry bout the police
    We make 'em rich so they don't have to thief
    Every artist here on this track, oh
    Will make a change here for young cats, oh
    This is for everybody, white or black
    You better go and vote and get up off your back

    Wake up everybody, no more sleeping
    Wake up everybody, no more sleeping
    Wake up everybody, no more sleeping
    Wake up everybody, no more sleeping

    Wake up everybody, no more sleeping, take the opportunity
    Wake up everybody, no more sleeping, your responsibility
    Wake up everybody, no more sleeping, your voice has to be heard
    Wake up everybody, no more sleeping, save the world, save the world

    Wake up everybody, no more sleeping
    Wake up everybody, no more sleeping
    Wake up everybody, no more sleeping
    Wake up everybody, no more sleeping
