Wake Up And Give Yourself A Chance To Live

[Intro]
I know sometimes, during the hustles of the day
You feel that "What the heck? The harder I try, the rougher it gets"
Hey... and when you do everything you can, to make everything be alright, and meet your bills, you understand
And your loved one seem to think, that:
"Hey, you're not trying, you could do a little bit better"
Nobody understands where you're coming from, you say to yourself:
"Hey, I gotta prove it to me, 'cause I know where I'm at"
And this is what you do

[Verse 1]
I know sometimes you feel the world has turned its back on you
But don't give up, it'll come through for you

[Chorus]
So wake up, baby
Wake up, baby
Give yourself a chance
You owe that to yourself
So wake up, baby, give yourself a chance to live

[Verse 2]
This morning I got up, feeling kinda down
But I say there's always a way
If you get yourself up off the ground

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh... let me wake up
And give myself a chance
I've got to wake right up
And you wake right up and give yourself a chance to live

[Verse 3]
I know you're just human
And sometimes it can be a sho'nuff ruin
But when you feel it's too hard
Just take it to the Supreme...
Force, and that's God

[Chorus/outro]
Mm, mm, oh, wake up baby
I've got to wake right up
I've got to wake on up
Everybody should wake on up
Give yourself a chance to live
It's all there for you, just go and get it too!
Wake on up
You owe it to yourself and no one else
Wake up, baby, give yourself a chance to live
Mm, I feel so good, since I woke myself on up...
