about

Wake Up is cynical, ethereal alt pop with a twist of hope in the guitar hook.
It was the 2nd single released from the debut album.

lyrics

There’s rooms of only men deciding women's rights
There’s a guy in the White House who only thinks white
And they blinker us to see only one side of the coin
Show the refugees coming but not our bombs destroying their homes
And we got the internet connected round the world
But all we’re doing is just checking out those instagram girls
More and more distractions to keep us locked down
Turn us each in to an island without its own power supply .. I’m not gonna lie


{We got to} Wake up wake up wake up wake up
Take back take back take back take back
Wake up wake up wake up wake up
Take back take back take back our power
Wake up wake up take back our power

I see massive lorries plastered with greenwash signs
Saying we’ve cut our emissions to ease your mind
All our eyes are permanently glued to screens
The internet's the only thing for hi definition dreams
And the people who say theres no systemic racism
Why can't you see that's just cos no one ever rubbed your face in it
We are all in this together so why don't you take a minute before you
Sit back down, put your blinkers on and settle in it

{We got to} Wake up wake up wake up wake up
Take back take back take back take back
Wake up wake up wake up wake up
Take back take back take back our power
Wake up wake up take back our power
Wake up wake up to what we know
Wake up wake up wake up before it's too late

Somehow we stud the green fields with empires of steel
Get our supermarket apples from a thousand miles away
Put our vulnerable away where we don’t behold their pain and
all our stuff is built to fall apart sooner rather than later
They care about a black Ariel more than fish in the sea,
Only when they’re gone will they realise we can’t eat money
History repeats itself time after time
Can only overcome our nature by opening our minds

{We got to} Wake up wake up wake up wake up
Take back take back take back take back
Wake up wake up wake up wake up
Take back take back take back our power
Wake up wake up take back our power
Wake up wake up to what we know
Wake up wake up wake up before it’s too late
