What happens when we wake up?

The Year of the Rat is officially over, yet I still have strange "ratty dreams" at night...
To fully step into the Year of the Ox I ask myself, in the words of Sanjaya Malakar..
"What happens when we wake up?"
Well, sometimes we happen to come across some profound lyrics..

Sanjaya Malakar - Quintessential Lullaby, the lyrics..

You see the odd manipulation
Of material manifestation
We start to feel the creation
Of a stifled population
So we reach inside each other
To find that thing we must uncover
Finding a way not to smother
The flame that makes us who we are

What happens when we wake up?
When we open up our eyes?
What happens when we wake up?
We’ll uncover your disguise.

From all across the nation we need to
Intend to speculation
We must distribute our frustration
To an unsuspecting nation
And then we realize our delusions
Become by the way of our confusions
We gain collective understanding
And we let ..

What happens when we wake up?
When we open up our eyes?
What happens when we wake up?
We’ll uncover your disguise.

You perpetrate annihilation
And perpetuate segregation
Your distinct becomes contagious
As we isolate our minds
You try inflecting your deception
And belittle our perception
We’ll asses this situation
Before we let it get too far

What happens when we wake up?
When we open up our eyes?
What happens when we wake up?
We’ll uncover your disguise.
