Lead Vocal: Vas Myers
Music & Lyrics: Vas Myers

"WAKE UP AND SEE"

Verse 1
My mind seems tired of playing the role that I was meant to play.
My body seems restless, and sometimes I just want to forget and get away.
Something is cutting the circulation and the only source of life.
Do I leave my purpose out of frustration? Will that help me through this night?
Chorus 1
I gotta break loose, I gotta break free.
I know it isn't right, I know it isn't me.
I gotta realize, I gotta wake up and see
This attack on my mind only will imprison me.
--------
Verse 2
It's funny how my thoughts do race like birds above my head.
I forget my mind's a battleground, and the Enemy wants me dead.
I must resist what tries to hold me back from giving all.
God, send the angels to nurse and heal my wounds…
Chorus 2
To break me loose now, to help me break free,
I wanna set my sights on where You're leading me.
I gotta realize the Enemy's after me,
But I've got new weapons, & You're intervening for me.
Lead break: ------ Repeat twice
Interlude: ---
Repeat Chorus
Adlibs space of Chorus
