Karaoké Wake Up Everybody John Legend & The Roots

Wake up everybody no more sleepin' in bed

No more backward thinking time for thinking ahead

The world has changed so very much from what it used to be

There is so much hatred war and poverty

Oh woah yeah yeah

Wake up all the teachers time to teach a new way

Maybe then they'll listen to what you have to say

'Cos they're the ones who's coming up and the world is in their hands

When you teach the children teach them the very best you can

Oh yeah

The world won't get no better

The world won't get no better if we just let it be if we just let it be

Oh no

The world won't get no better

We gotta change it, yeah

The world won't get no better

We gotta change it, yeah just you and me just you and me

Wake up all the doctors make the old people well

They're the ones who suffer and who catch all the hell

And who catch all the hell

They don't have so very long before their Judgment Day

Oh

So won't you make them happy before they pass away

Oh yeah

Wake up all the builders time to build a new land

I know we can do it if we all lend a hand

The only thing we have to do is put it in our mind

Surely things will work out 'cos they do every time

'Cos they do every time

Yeah

Yeah

The world won't get no better

The world won't get no better if we just let it be, oh if we just let it be, oh

The world won't get no better

We gotta change it, yeah

The world won't get no better

We gotta change it, yeah just you and me just you and me

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah

It's the God hour the morning I wake up

Just for the breath of life

I thank my maker

My mom say I come from hustlers and shakers

My mind buildin' on skyscrapers and acres

He said take us back to where we belong

I try to write a song as sweet as the Psalms

Though I'm the type to bear arms and wear my heart on my sleeve

Even when I fell, in God I believe

Breathe the days in weave through the maze

And the season so amazing feed them and raise them

Seasons are aging earthquakes, wars and rumors

I want us to get by but we're more than consumers

We're more than shooters more than looters

Created in his image so God live through us

And even in this generation living through computers only love, love, love can reboot us

Come on

Oh, wake up everybody no more sleepin' in bed, oh

Oh, wake up everybody, yeah

Wake up everybody, yeah yeah

I said I need a little help, y'all

I said I need a little help, y'all

Can't do it alone

Oh, I need a little help, y'all

Come on, come on

Need a little help, y'all come on, come on

I need a little help, y'all

I need a little help, y'all

Can't do it alone

Oh, I need a little help, y'all

Need a little help, y'all

Can't do it alone

Oh

Wake up everybody

Wake up everybody
