[KRS-One:]

Y'know

There's a difference between dreamin, and visualizin

Which one are you doin?



Food gone up, gasoline up

Full-time employment passin me up

Bills pilin up, really this sucks

I need a couple bucks, really I'm stuck

Here comes a truck, pullin right up

It says Brinks, now I'm thinkin what's up

But nah, what I'm thinkin about, yo duck

20 30 40 shots at the truck

I'm duckin runnin jumpin lookin for what?

Some cover for this brother, EVERYTHING'S NUTS~!

But yo, I can see some others with gats

Brinks firin, they firin back

Rat, ta-tat-ta-ta-tat-ta-ta, tat

Then I woke up...



Doctor help me out, what's this all about

What's this condition I gotta figure out

Am I really out, that I really doubt

Give me the remedy, what is the amount?

Whatever you tellin me sellin me compellin me

Yo the light in me ain't out

Anyway I enter cats remember

Knowledge I sent ya forever they shout

SOUTH BRONX! SOUTH BRONX!

SOUTH BRONX! SOUTH BRONX!

Then I woke up...



Well I guess I'm out on my own

With this condition it won't be long

Before for sure my little sanity's gone

I'm livin off of nuttin, losin my home

Kids in the street, wife alone

I want to sell this very microphone

But then my friend the light was shown

It came through my inner cellular phone

Get up and get out my spirit will shout

Commitment is what love is really about

No down and no out, just up and about

I think I'm gonna take the spiritual route

Then I woke up...



Then I realized I'm out of my purpose

Out of my purp', not doin my work

I went on a search, inside of myself

For true health, love awareness and wealth

I went to the Temple and opened my mental

I learned that I'm the cause of all that I been through

Your whole environment is really within you

Reach inside your heart and write a new menu

I'ma be the change that I want to see

Now I can see, that I'm really free

Everything is really always somethin else

Tell yourself a different story 'bout self

Do you have the courage to be you

All that talk, that you talk, is it really you?

Oh silly you, oh silly me

Your tongue is killin YOU, not killin me

I'm feelin free, to be, just what I wanna be

Easily, you see, cause I woke up...



When I woke up, my debt went down

My locks broke up, my rent went down

My stocks went up, my car sped up

My pockets swell up, my life I found

I'm not so fed up it's time to get up

A clear mind switched my life around

Now I can see where the help is at

The health love awareness and wealth is at

Cause I woke up...

Cause I woke up! I woke up!

When I woke up, I woke up

That's when I woke up
