Woke In This House



This song's lyrics are inspired by Cardi B's interview with Vice President Joe Biden and her awarding winning 2020 first single since "Press", "WAP" (Wet-Ass-Pussy).

Woke in this house
There's some Woke in this house
There's some Woke in this house
There's some Woke in this house (Hol' up)
All of them are certified weak
Seven days a week
Wet behind the ears
The Woke really need to dry up! (ah)

[Chorus]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, you are wet behind the ears
Bring a bucket and a mop
A mountain of paper towels
It will take this glorious nation
Everything to dry the foolishness up (ah)
[Verse 1]

No need to beat them up silly
For real change takes place
In the heart (oh)
The Wet Ears gets right in your face
Stop. Stop. Stop.
Speak some wisdom to the youngsters
There is never a reason to
Give up. (no way!)
When I look in their empty eyes
I get a sense of hollowness
But this is the time to step up
Let's roleplay, I'll wear a disguise
It's time for some of us to be
Genius. (yeah)
Make them scream, make them dream
Out in public, make a scene
Always speak to them the Truth
Force feed them if you have to
Two plus two shall always equal four
In the end, that's pure, simple logic (Ayy, Ayy)

[Chorus]

There's some Woke in this house
There's some Woke in this house
There's some Woke in this house
There's some Woke in this house
There's some Woke in this house

[Verse 2]

Gobble up my knowledge (yeah)
Swallow up my wisdom (oh)
Let it drip, drip, drip, down.
Inside your mighty mortal soul. (yeah)
There's no need to be rundown
Don't be diggin' your yourself
Consistly in one deep, deep, hole.
Stir clear of nihilism
That's a one way trip to darkness
Coast on a highway of truthfulness
When you discover that a lightning strike
Is not a Witch Doctor's Magic Trick

[Verse 3]

Look, we need new hard hitters
If not the world will fall
Into a wide abyss
So you Woke need to wipe it up
Behind your ears and we need
To get off your case
Because you are adults now
And you really need to
Pull your weight.
I don't want to choke and gag
I just want you all Woke
To know your place.
So dry up for you can't be Woke forever
At some point you have to wake
Life is not a cakewalk
Sometimes you have do
Everything that it takes to dry up
As the sake of the world is at stake.

[Chorus]

There's some Woke in this house
There's some Woke in this house
There's some Woke in this house
There's some Woke in this house
There's some Woke in this house
