Wake Up
Korn
Issues (1999)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wake Up is pure intensity. A song that is a message to the rest of Korn, Jonathan
screams at the band to end the fighting. This seems to date back to Family Values
98 when there was a lot of tension between the band members which nearly
reached breaking point.

Jonathan wants them to open their eyes and realise that fighting each other is
pointless and that they are together because they want to play music together.
He's telling them to just shut the fuck up and play.

Wake the fuck up!

Each day, more frightening
All of us wanna die
The pressure's tightening
I don't even want to try

Should I take all the stupid bullshit
What makes them think they can get away with it?
Im not happy
I wish they just...

Wake the fuck up!

I can take no more
What are we fighting for?
You are my brothers
Each one I would die for
Please just let it go
All the heads are blown
Let's just take the stage
And remember why we play for

No more fighting!
I swear I'm gonna leave
Talking shit to spite me
I wish they just..

Wake the fuck up!

I can take no more
What are we fighting for?
You are my brothers
Each one I would die for
Please just let it go
All the heads are blown
Let's just take the stage
And remember why we play for

Remember why we play for
