Wake Up! (Deluxe Version)
Compared to What - John Legend (约翰·传奇)/The Roots
Love the lie and lie the love*
Hangin' on with a push and shove
Possession is the motivation
That is hangin' up the God-damn nation
Looks like we always end up in a rut
Tryin' to make it rea compared to what
Tryin' to make it rea compared to what
Slaughterhouse is killin' hogs
Twisted children killin' frogs
Poor dumb rednecks rollin' logs
Tired old ladies kissin' dogs
Hate the human love that stinking mutt
Try to make it real compared to what
Try to make it real compared to what
The President he's got his war
Folks don't know just what it's for
Nobody gives us rhyme or reason
Have one doubt they call it treason
We're chicken-feathers all without one gut
Tryin' to make it real compared to what
Tryin' to make it real compared to what
Church on Sunday sleep and nod
Tryin' to duck the wrath of God
Preacher's fillin' us with fright
Tryin' to tell us what he thinks is right
He really got to be some kind of nut
Tryin' to make it real compared to what
Tryin' to make it real compared to what
Tryin' to make it real compared to what
Tryin' to make it real compared to what
Where's that bee and where's that honey
Where's my God and where's my money
Unreal values crass distortion
Unwed mothers need abortion
Kind of brings to mind ol' young King Tut
Tried to make it real compared to what
