Awake Lyrics

As time went on, I opened up my eyes
You never really knew me
You don't know what's deep inside

Just so you know, I'll never be like you
I'll take what God has made me
I'm not an empty shell

And I hope they see
Instead of following

Finally awake
I feel alive today
(I feel everything)
It's all so clear to me

Finally awake
I feel alive today
(I feel everything)
It's all so clear to me

How many times have I hated who I was?
Lost sight of what defines me
'Cause of airbrushed magazines?

But now I've come to cherish who I am
I'm sick and tired of faking a life that wasn't mine

And I hope they see
Instead of following

Finally awake
I feel alive today
(I feel everything)
It's all so clear to me

Finally awake
I feel alive today
(I feel everything)
It's all so clear to me

(I'm alive)
It's all so clear to me
(I'm alive)
And I'm alive
It's all so clear to me
And I hope they see

Finally awake
I feel alive today
(I feel everything)
It's all so clear to me

Finally awake
I feel alive today
(I feel everything)
It's all so clear to me
(I feel everything)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
