"Wake Up" lyrics

"Wake Up"

I been arguing angels all my life
I been mixing all this darkness and the light
Slaying giants, sling shot by my side

So alive
Echo in the distance like a siren
You're on fire
Baby, you know pressure makes a diamond

You're a phoenix and you're rising in the smoke
Ash-to-ash, dust-to-dust will turn to gold
Even the holiest of men are made of bones

You look away
World keep burning
You're losing faith
Know that it's hurting
Wake up, wake up, wake up
Because you're losing faith
Know that it's hurting

The messages that come to me are voices of the age
I twist it up like medicine, like flower in my jay
I'm a caffeinated veteran
I'm spiritually invested in
They can't erase what's permanent
I'm consciously inventing it
Results vary already cutting through the mix
Truth buried in a cemetery
Till you find out it's a myth

You're a phoenix and you're rising in the smoke
Ash-to-ash, dust-to-dust will turn to gold
Even the holiest of men are made of bones

You look away
World keep burning
You're losing faith
Know that it's hurting
Wake up, wake up, wake up
Because you're losing faith
Know that it's hurting

Burning, burning, burning

You look away
World keep burning
You're losing faith
Know that it's hurting
Wake up, wake up, wake up
Because you're losing faith
Know that it's hurting
