Wake up



wake up
wake up
wake up from your slumber
for strength belongs to
he who put himself together
never look down
but carry your crown
arise and shine
for at the end of every rain
comes the sunshine
yesterday and today
are not the same
today is sadness
tomorrow comes happiness
it is not the fall
but how you rise again
wake up from the pain
for time wasted
can never be gained again
wake up
wake up
wake up from your slumber
