Yeah this is a wake up call
While you been dreaming
We have been screaming

The lyrics to Lipless feat. Haley's song "Wake Up Call" talk about the idea of waking up to reality. It suggests that while you have been lost in your dreams, others have been trying to make themselves heard.

It serves as a metaphor for a realization that one needs to see what is happening around them and what they need to deal with. The song urges the listener to wake up to change and to make a difference.
The opening line, "Yeah this is a wake up call" sets the tone for the rest of the song.
