In the awakening, in the awakening I will shoulder my troubles and Harness my ride In the awakening, in the awakening I'll roll nothin' but doubles, Sevens and nines In the awakening, in the awakening I will lick my wounds I will kiss the sky In the awakening, in the awakening I'll kick the shoulds I will not ask why In the awakening, in the awakening I will pray for nothing, I will stay up till the end In the awakening, in the awakening I'll say what I want to, I will not make amends I will say what I want to, I will not make amends In the awakening, in the awakening I will honor the mistaken, I will honor the truth In the awakening, in the awakening I will honor the forsaken I will not mourn my youth In the awakening, in the awakening I will not mourn my losses, I will not mourn the dead In the awakening, in the awakening I will have no bosses, I will not bow my head In the awakening, in the awakening I will want for nothing, I will give you a gift In the awakening, in the awakening I will always love you, I will give you my kiss
