Master Teacher
Dreams, dreams
Dreams

I have longed to stay awake
A beautiful world I'm trying to find
A beautiful world I'm trying to find
A beautiful world I'm trying to find
I've been in search of myself
A beautiful world, a beautiful world
It's just too hard for me to find
Dreams, dreams
Said it's just too hard for me to find
Dreams, dreams
I am in the search of something new
A beautiful world I'm trying to find
Searchin', and me searching inside you
And that's for real

What if it was no n***as, only master teachers? (Dreams, dreams)
I stay woke
What if there was no n***as, only master teachers? (Dreams, dreams)
I stay woke
What if it was no n***as, only master teachers now? (Dreams, dreams)
I stay woke
What if there was no n***as only master teachers now? (Dreams, dreams)
I stay woke
Even if your baby ain't got no money to support you, baby
I stay woke
Even when the preacher tell you some lies and cheatin' on your mama
I stay woke
Even though you go through struggle and strife to keep a healthy life
I stay woke
Everybody knows a black or white, there's creatures in every shape and size
I stay woke

Everybody (I stay woke)
Everybody stay (I stay woke)
Get everybody (I stay woke)
Everybody-body, baby
A beautiful world, a beautiful world (Dreams, dreams)
A beautiful world, a beautiful world (Dreams, dreams)
A beautiful world I'm trying to find (Dreams, dreams)
A beautiful world I'm trying to find (Dreams, dreams)
A beautiful world I'm trying to find (Dreams, dreams)

I have longed to stay awake
A beautiful world I'm trying to find (A beautiful world I'm trying to find)
See, I am in search of myself (A beautiful world, I'm trying to find)
Oh, it's just too hard for me to find (A beautiful world, a beautiful world)
Said it just too hard for me to find (Dreams, dreams, dreams)
'Cause I'm in the search of something new (A beautiful world I'm trying to find)
Search inside me, searching inside you
And that's for trill
What if there was no n***as, only master teachers?
I stay woke
What if there was no n***as, only master teacher?
I stay woke
What if there was no n***as, only master teachers now?
I stay woke
What if there was no n***as, only master teacher?
I stay woke
No, what if there was no n***as, only master teachers?
I stay woke
What if there was no n***as, only master teachers now?
I stay woke

Teach us, teach us
I stay woke
What if there was no n***as only master teachers now?
I stay woke
What if there was— master teachers
I stay woke
What if there was no n***as only master teachers?
I stay woke
Mm, hey
I stay woke
One, two
One, two, three, four
Baby's sleepy
Time to put her down now
I'll be standin' 'round
'Til the sun down
I stay woke
I stay woke
I stay woke
I stay woke
Congregation nod they head
And say amen
The deacon fell asleep again and
I stay woke
But I stay woke
I stay woke
I stay woke
Lovers holding hands
And falling deep in love
And sleeping
Passing conversation
Ooh, I stay woke
I stay woke
I stay woke
I stay woke
I stay woke
Pretty rings and pretty thieves
With shiny lights and little
Pieces of tomorrow
I stay woke
I stay woke
I stay woke
I stay woke

Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (I stay woke)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (I stay woke)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (I stay—)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (Ohh, I stay)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah

Baby's sleepy
Time to put her down and
I'll be hangin' 'round
Until the sun down, hey

Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (Oh)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (Ooh-ooh)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (I stay woke)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (Mm, stay woke)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (I stay)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (I stay woke)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (I stay woke)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (Yes, I do, I stay woke)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (Ooh)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (I stay woke)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah (I stay woke)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah
