Wake the dead
Wake the dead
Wake the dead
Wake the dead
Wake the dead
Wake the dead
Wake the dead
Wake the dead

Get up!
Rest in peace?!
What?!
Fuck that!
Jump with the boom!
Rest in pandemonium bitch
In fact don't even rest, get the fuck up and bust somethin' sweet
Jump with a bang!
Wake that dead ass sleep!

When I die it's time to celebrate
All love escape the hella hate, first thing I'ma do is start rockin', in the casket, pop lockin'
Dirt dust, chippin' away the rust with these freaky moves that I bust
I'ma pop out, rock out with my cock out
Monster mash all across the grass
Spendangle, on the top of tomb stones, wake up them pile of bones
Foot float right out the grave yard in the streets, crab walkin' way hard
Cars stop, what the fuck is goin' on?
Dead bodies, dancin' on the lawn
Do the sprinkler, do the superman
Get stupid that's the plan

[Chorus]
Get up! Jump with the boom
Zombie slide up out ya tomb
Can u fuck it up like us? can u freak the moves that we bust?!
Get up jump with the bang
Zombie slide and do your thang
Can u fuck it up like us?
Can u freak the moves that we bust?!

When I die, please don't cry any, (why?)
'Cause I'm poppin' up and doin' the shimmy,
Fuck heaven and hell they can both wait,
I'm gettin' live freakin' this snake,
My left eyeball hangs outta my face,
When I'm crumpin' at a murderous pace,
Police shootin' at me, I bust a hitchhike,
I break it down any way you like,
You don't even know what the fuck is goin' on,
(What do they call that?) I'm mowin' the lawn,
They wanna pop me, try to drop me, back spin into a kick stand,
They can't stop me, look at me
Fuckin' up air guitar, that they shit,
So there you are, we live forever, so there you go, J-U-double G-A-L-O!

[Chorus]

Wake the dead
Wake the dead
Wake the dead
Wake the dead
Come on!

[Chorus]

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
