Lyrics:
Waking Up
We're waking up
Yes it's good
We're waking up
Like I knew we would
There's a breath of hope
For everyone to share
There's a growing force
Of people who care
In all the years of struggle
It seems we're making way
I have never been afraid to
Change the circumstances
Of the world
Cobwebs everywhere
It's time for a deep sweep
We're waking up
Yes it's clear
We're waking up
Dawn is here
Feel the searing heat of
Heightened consciousness
Feel the yearning for
Peace and happiness
For all the times I've wished
That we would finally
Come around
I have never been afraid
To change the circumstances
Of the world
Cobwebs everywhere
Time for a deep sweep
We're waking up
Yes it's good
We're waking up
Like I knew we would
There's a breath of hope
For everyone to share
There's a growing force
Of people who care
In all the years of struggle
It seems we're making way
I have never been afraid to
Change the circumstances
Of the world
Cobwebs everywhere
It's time for a deep sweep
We're breaking out of
Cranium keep
We're waking up
After the sleep
We're breaking out of
Cranium keep
We're waking up
After the sleep
We're breaking out of
Cranium keep
We're waking up
After the sleep
We're breaking out of
Cranium keep
We're waking up
After the sleep
Now
