| Verse 1 | |
| I woke up this morning so I had to make a new track | |
| This is the difference between true stories and true facts | |
| This right here is what waking up feels like | |
| This is the difference between real talk and real life | |
| It’s a treacherous road so mind the GAP | |
| because they try to blur the lines between lies and facts | |
| They told you, it was finished, but that’s all a lie | |
| ’cos there’s children in them sweatshops some as young as four or five | |
| check the tag on your trainers | |
| they say It’s important the product get endorsed by somebody famous | |
| So we think It looks cool, | |
| while slaves are stichin’ footballs in Pakistan | |
| I break it down in a way that other rappers can’t | |
| It’s hard to stop sleeping and wake up, ’cos It’s to real | |
| But if karma doesn’t get you first then the truth will | |
| we livin in some wild days | |
| according to Unicef there’s 246 million child slaves | |
| So… | |
| CHOURS | |
| Wake up | |
| Open your eyes and listen to this | |
| cos little innocent kids are stitchin them kicks | |
| Im ticked of, cos we live in this myth | |
| the devils biggest trick was convincing the people he didnt exist | |
| So.. | |
| Wake Up | |
| You think It ended but It never did | |
| they put the chocolate in our mouth | |
| the logos on our precisous kicks | |
| the logos on our backs, the coffe we drink almost everything, | |
| there’s more slaves on earth right now than there’s ever been | |
| Verse 2 | |
| You listen to the wrong rappers | |
| Companies are using childslaves and blaming it all on their subcontractors | |
| Don’t need to guess who’s sew those jeans, but who’s buying these clothes | |
| who gives us coco beans from the ivory coast | |
| the answers are hard, but you dont need to search the skies | |
| they’re in Asian sweatshops makin Mickey Mouse merchendise | |
| Nowdays there’s less to do with the color of your skin, fam | |
| It’s more to do with the country that you’re in, fam | |
| wont stop spittin til’ there’s a change | |
| every purchase that we make, keep the children in chains | |
| It’s so twisted and strange to me | |
| some parents are so poor they sell their own kids into slavery | |
| It’s an ugly state of affairs | |
| slaves used to pick cotton but now they stich tics on the trainers we wear | |
| when they tell you It’s finished, don’t let them | |
| ’cos It’s still here, even though It got abolished in 1807 | |
| CHOURS | |
| Verse 3 | |
| This is for those who kept faith | |
| and all the children around the globe gettin sold as sex slaves | |
| Back in the day it was bad but this is the next phase | |
| Nowdays everything’s in our hands fam, Let’s change | |
| In these tragic times, we gotta analyze these rappers rhymes | |
| fact is they blind, and they glamourize a pack of lies | |
| The powers got us distracted but we got to fight | |
| ’cos these days It’s not as simple as being black or white | |
| We need to fix our lives and get some unity | |
| ’cos ’til the feds get their weapons and executing me | |
| putting me back to sleep is something you could never do to me | |
| Yours truly, Lowkey the rapper slash Revoultionary | |
| do your research if you dont believe It still exists | |
| It’s just a matter of how long can we live with it | |
| You could call me a hypocrite | |
| ’cos if you look at my shoe on my foot right now, you’d see a little tic on it |
