Awake (Motu)

Shaznay Lewis, Johan Hugo

[Verse 1]
Watch as the world is on fire
Still held up in chains and barbed wire
And all of what we treasure
Vanish like feathers

[Verse 2]
All their mistakes, they surface
And now we're awake, they curse us
No one learns the lessons
Repeating is a given, yeah

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Their disgrace can’t be undone
'Cause they can't erase what’s entrenched in love
Oh my days, those old ways
Got to change 'causе we won't give in

[Chorus]
Is this what you wanna see?
Is this how you wanna be?
How wе gonna live
How we gonna lead
If freedom's not a thing
For those who dare to dream
How we gonna live
How we gonna lead

[Verse 3]
Those smouldering flames still burning
Let's watch as the world keeps turning
When value doesn't measure
No worth in your endeavours

[Pre-Chorus 2]
What remains the same, what does not give up
Is that hope won't fade, they can't drown that love
Oh my days, those old ways
They gon’ change ’cause we keep on living

[Chorus]
Is this what you wanna see?
Is this how you wanna be?
How we gonna live
How we gonna lead
If freedom's not a thing
For those who dare to dream
How we gonna live
How we gonna lead

[Chorus]
Is this what you wanna see?
Is this how you wanna be?
How we gonna live
How we gonna lead
If freedom’s not a thing
For those who dare to dream
How we gonna live
How we gonna lead
