Woke Lyrics

Official jump off! This is STK!

Y'all better wake up!

I had to take time out to get this done, Uh! Uh!



Kofi Annan

First, every new idea and initiative meets with resistance

And we have to be re-prepared to find the courage to take risks

Even to fail if the goal is worthwhile, no one has monopoly of wisdom

We have to do more to break down barriers



Slicker STK

Hold up! Make I tell you a little something that'll spark your mind

Excite your mind. I'm ready to feed your mind

With real talk that'll free your mind

We living in information but we got, clouded minds

And it's a pity how the light don't shine, when the sun is fine

Wearing a watch on your wrist don't define your time, it tells time

I'll be damned if I'm one of a kind, if strength is in numbers why would I wanna be one?

I walk alone in a world full of 7 billion plus people

They say we're not equal

My confusion somebody please explain equal

Seems to me a baby smarter than these people, and that's rhetoric!

Why do I gotta be powerful to be relevant?

If I no get money then I no get influence?

Funny, how coins that acquire conscience, cannot acquire common sense



Jerry John Rawlings

If we can learn to be bold enough to restore the value of truth

In our society then we will have justice. Without truth we cannot get justice

And that's why we are suffering. Truth is so important

Do you know what Ghandi said?

(I don't need Ghandi to tell it to me)

Ghandi said he was looking for truth in God

Only to discover that God was in truth. How beautiful (You know)



Slicker STK

I wanna know what do you know? You know nothing

You got the power of the internet but yet nothing

Cause you would rather, Twitter for Wikipedia

Knowledge no be flex no more, it's social media, where everybody acts a fool

Nobody has a clue, on how to fully utilize a tool to improve you

We're easily making a lotta things harder, we record, instead of helping out in a disaster

And that's the problem, with these kids

We talk more and do less, we be “shishii”

If prostituting online is the new shit, they done turned a snapchat to Red light district

When good folks don't want nothing to do with bad guys

Wey the bad guys too dey spread the bad vibes, then we all a bunch of misfits

Then you wonder why the lottery is such a successful business?



Fela

The white men have taught us everything we know

But teacher don't teach me nonsense

The Englishman will say (demo) democracy

But if the African man wants to say it in broken he will say

“dem-oh-crazy”

Craziness, I start to think of this word democracy

Democracy, crazy demo, demonstration of craze, crazy demonstration

If it's not crazy why does in Africa as time goes forward, thing's getting worse

Poor man dey cry, Rich man dey mess

Democracy, crazy demo, demonstration of craze

Say if good teacher teach something and student make mistake

Teacher must tell him



Slicker STK

Let's stay woke y'all
