John Legend & The Roots- Wake Up Everybody (Live in Studio)
“In the words of Mandela ‘We all got a spirit inside that’s angelic’ We can’t keep fear in the light let it develop. Whose people shine daily as bright? I can’t tell it. My band ‘bout 70 strong, just like Fela’s. A heat wave like Martha and the Vandellas. But how it’s going down in the world is scandalous. Folks pissin’ in streets and New York topsellers. As we advance from rock sellers to Rockefellers, and drop some of the most popular a capellas. You got to love us. The cold blooded soul brothers. Asleep with our head on the pillow under the covers. How long will it take us to learn from one another that respect is something to earn from one another? We can change how the world turns for one another. Lets show a little common concern for one another. Wake up.”
