Alicia Keys

Wake up

You used to be my closest ally
In this cold cold world of deception and lies
We would defend and protect one another
Now I can't tell if
we're enemies or lovers

So who's gonna rescue us from ourselves

When we gonna wake up baby?
When it's time for lovin'
When we gonna wake up my baby?
Before it's too late?

Oh, baby, where did we go wrong, baby?
Did this cold, cold world
turn us into stone?
Now all I battle
is your ego and your pride
It's ticking like a time bomb,
ready to ignite
Hurtin' me to fight

Who's gonna rescue us from ourselves

When we gonna wake up baby?
It's time for lovin'
When it's time for lovin'
Before it's too late?

When the smoke clears
What will be left for us but tears and pain
Why must we argue
over the same things
Just to make up and go back again
It's never too late
But it's been too long
Can't get it right
when no one thinks they're wrong
Gotta get out of bed
And take a look at what's going on
