Wake Up Lyrics

[Verse 2]
No more fighting
I swear I'm gonna leave
Talking shit to spite me
I wish we'd just...

[Chorus]
Wake the fuck up, wake the fuck up!
Wake the fuck up, 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 our heads are blown
Let's take the stage
And remember what we play for
I can't take no more
What are we fighting for?
You are my brothers
Each one I would die for
Please just let it go
All our heads are blown
Let's take the stage
And remember what we play for
I can't take no more
What are we fighting for?
You are my brothers
Each one I would die for
Please just let it go
All our heads are blown
Let's take the stage
And remember what we play for
Remember what we play for
Remember what we play for
Remember what we play for

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

“Wake Up” is the eighth track off of Korn’s fourth album, Issues.

The song deals with the band and the constant arguments between members at the time. Jonathan Davis made the song as a wake up call for the band to stop the arguments and remember why they came together in the first place, threatening to leave the band if the arguments didn’t stop.
