caleb mccoy - half way woke lyrics
[intro]
wake up
it’s time
the activists, the allies, pacifists, everybody in between
(ain’t no such thing as half way woke)
ain’t no such thing
yo!
(ain’t no such thing as half way woke)
[verse 1]
look
i got you stuck off the realness
you gotta feel this
this joy(?) bout to wake up the men, women and children
i mean i’m all about talking about oppression
if it’s ending with an +ism, i think that we should address it
look
nowadays everybody claim woke
but still part of the problem yeah it’s a straight joke
cause many folks talk a good one in public
but really they could go and care less about justice
and fake happenings, facebook activists
down for the rally as long as it ain’t happening
down for a challenge as long as it ain’t challenging
i see your two faces and i ain’t havin it
you keep claiming you’re an advocate
but we know p+rnography creates a demand for human trafficking
so don’t act like you got a problem with it
when you still rockin with it when it comes in better packaging
we sayin put your money where your mouth is
but i always see you running where the clout is
you just tryna chill comfy where the couch is
i’m bout to make it hotter than the summer in the southwest
[chorus]
state your name, friend or foe
i want the fire, they want the smoke
yeah if you tight, it’s time to go
cause ain’t no such thing as halfway woke
(ain’t no such thing as halfway woke)
there ain’t no such thing as halfway woke
(ain’t no such thing as halfway woke)
there ain’t no such thing as halfway woke
[verse 2]
everybody love a good conspiracy
until it requires accountability
and when they get challenged to think differently
they just shift the convo and blame hillary
(the emails!)
or blame trump, blame obama, y’all k!llin me
it’s time to put the focus where the mirror be
you say you worry about government tyranny
but stay silent when it’s black folks losing their liberty
your whole life neglecting widows and orphans
then turn around and say you care about abortion
over+politicising when really that’s a distortion
cause stats say it don’t matter who’s been sitting in office
stay worried about the illuminati
but won’t confirm the evil on their own property
you claim woke but asleep is what you gotta be
cause you ain’t even waking up to your own hypocrisy
(woo!)
so go ahead with the cheap talk
all your knowledge second hand like the flea market
and now i wanna hear your plea bargain
c’mon you ain’t really woke you just sleep walking
[chorus]
state your name, friend or foe
i want the fire, they want the smoke
yeah if you tight, it’s time to go
cause ain’t no such thing as halfway woke
(ain’t no such thing as halfway woke)
there ain’t no such thing as halfway woke
(i said ain’t no such thing as halfway woke)
there ain’t no such thing as halfway woke
[verse 3]
see it’s a good start being woke to racism
but trust when i say that isn’t the whole picture
when you really woke you also aware of your own sinnin
aim for the root cause we ain’t just treating the symptoms
it ain’t just about anger, it’s more about wisdom
we need systemic change but you part of the system
we can fight hard for justice and reform prisons
but without christ there’s always somethin missin
