WAKE ME UP
D.C.W. (Dong Cheng Wei東城衛) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The dead rise, this might come as a shock.
The day the grave will be unlocked.
I've seen so many turn away, the one's had no doubt.
If you've been around, you know what I'm talking about.
On fire but now their burning out.
Don't they know, that this is a long road.
Chorus:
And all I want to say, is I'm not here to stay.
Life ends and I don't mind, just wake me up on time.
Just wake me up on time.
Do you ever think about what you'll become.
The reason why it's not a game but a race we run.
Who reigns are those who overcome.
You don't have to finish first, just stay on track.
Turn not right or left but straight up the path.
There are those who run that will turn back.
When Jesus goes, are you gonna follow even when you feel you can't go on.
And all I want to say, is I'm not here to stay.
Life ends and I don't mind, just wake me up on time.
Just wake me up on time. (2x)
And I don't care as long, as I can finish strong.
Just wake me up on time, just wake m up on time.
Don't they know that this is a long road.
The race we run's a marathon.
The song "Wake Me Up" by Dong Cheng Wei is a reminder to live life to the fullest and to stay on track towards our goals, even when the going gets tough. The lyrics paint a picture of a trumpet sounding like a worldwide alarm clock, announcing the rise of the dead and the unlocking of graves. The singer then observes that many have turned away, burning out after being on fire, but not realizing that this is a long road to run. The race we are running is a marathon, not a sprint, and it takes determination and perseverance to make it to the finish line.
The chorus emphasizes the message of the song, stating that the singer is not here to stay and that life ends, but they don't mind as long as someone wakes them up on time. This can be seen as a metaphor for the idea that we should make the most of every day, but also be prepared for the end when it comes. The second verse continues with the theme of the race we are running, pointing out that it is not a game, but a serious competition. Those who overcome are the ones who will reign, but it's important to stay on track and not stray from the path.
The final verse asks the listener to consider whether they would follow Jesus even when they feel they can't go on. The song ends with another repetition of the chorus, emphasizing the importance of waking up on time and finishing strong. Overall, "Wake Me Up" is a powerful reminder to stay focused on our goals and to live life to the fullest.
