Some Guy Named Robb - i don't want to be WOKE i just want to be awake

It's very human, to be stupid, casting blame blame, blame, to ease our own
Forgiveness in kind, is so hard to find, we want it so much, but for ourselves alone
Misinformation, abused equations, all these variables, presumed
Data bias, wove with science, money shouldn't offer up the burden of proof

No wool over the eyes No alarm no surprise Nothing sacred, no safe space
No one screaming in your ear telling ya, "this is how ya feel!", no one knows that anyway
Left or right, right or left, I won't discriminate I don't want to be woke; I just want to be awake

Cultural divide on the incline media says it, it must be true
More problems to fix, equate more clicks, truth isn't what you find now on the news
What's wrong with Truth? Does it offend you? Yeah, happily it offends me too.

No more wool over the eyes
No alarm & no surprise
Nothing sacred, nowhere safe
Always being right must carry such a weight
I don't want to be woke I just want to be awake
Don't misinterpret facts, just give it to me straight
I'm not laughing at the joke I'm not buying the fake
You can cancel everything; you can start with lies and hate
I don't want to be woke; I just want to be awake

We sing 'cause we're happy. We sing 'cause we're free.

One world is where we live, let's all participate
I won't buy into division, I'm not taking the bait
Fear and insecurity are very human traits
I don't want to be woke I just want to be awake
The ego and the id will always reprobate
I'm not buying in the lie, I'm not selling anything
Insight and understanding could help you to elate
There's no time for anti-rision, it's time to be awake.
Let's cancel everything; let's start with lies and hate.
I don't want to be woke; I just want to be awake.
