Sleep to be Woke?
Guys, it's a metaphor. We don't expect you to be Woke like allllll the time. You can take the tape off your eyelids, rest your head against the pillow and take one of those long extended blinks called, you guessed it, sleep.
It's not a dirty word for the Wokes. Because, in essence, sleep is well, essential for one to be Woke. Oh, the irony. In fact, sleep is natural! We're just sayin', for those hours you are awake, BE awake! BE aware! BE enmotherfuckinlightened!
Alright, you still with me?
Sleep to Stay Woke
So, at the Woke house, sleep is a must. We run embroidery machines, produce Woke.TV, sew, design, make music, run a store, screen print every product you own, you name it! If you're new to the program, we make our own shit. For all this to go as planned, we HAVE to sleep. Best believe we're up late and rise early, but you don't want Ito so much in a haze that he's got WOKE sewn into his forehead 'cause he fell asleep on the embroidery machine do you!? Well, that could be cool though. Woke Embroidery Tats coming SOON!
Okay, so, while you doze off and your body gets much needed rest, your mind is still going a million miles a minute. It's almost like,
IN A NUTSHELL
Say you work retail. And if you work retail? I give it up to you cause that shit is NOT easy. But there you are, working at Target. You just spent the last 3 hours cleaning up the toothpaste aisle. Everything looks fantastico. But THEN. Yes, then comes a woman chatting on the phone, driving that cart like she just had 16 shots of tequila on her 21st birthday, and her friends said "no, don't take the keys!" but she took 'em anyway and she's headed right to your aisle. Your precious toothpaste aisle.
Her toddler is all snotty nosed in her cart wailing his arms around like gottdamn chopper in Black Hawk Down. Her 7 year old is clearly a blind psychopath because a sane person with eyesight uses said eyesight to navigate said aisle!
And there you are, watching it all unfold. Your eyes are riddled with fear. And well, there's nothing you can do. The 7 year-old makes the first impact. It's right into the 3D White Crest. Eight boxes crash to the floor in dramatic slow motion fashion. The woman reaches to pick them up. As she goes for the boxes, her toddler, that snotty nose little... well, he grabs six toothbrushes and throws them like gottdamn grenades. And that toddler has a gottdamn arm cause four bottles of mouthwash crash like bowling pins, exploding on that oh so beautiful tile that you just mopped.
Check out this cool Huffington Post video about sleep
Like I said, sleep, very important to be WOKE. But while you're Woke, FUCK SLEEP! You get it right?
BE awake! BE aware! BE enmotherfuckinlightened! Happy Wednesday Ya'll.
This right here is what being WOKE is about, snow is always shouting it out in her songs,I hope the woke community is getting tons of sleep too, that is the key to being as WOKE as you can be, what is the point of being WOKE, if you don’t have the energy to get up and GRIND till the sun goes down.
Exactly!! to be aware of whats really going on around you people especially the whole woke crew needs to rest.
Like I have said before, and it’s working, I didn’t pay my gas bill cause I don’t need heat in my house because I got me a woke sweater to keep me warm.
This can be a better explanation to everyone who asks me if I’m woke does that mean I sleep. I just tell them it means to be aware, people need sleep. Thanks
This is awesome! The video was a really good touch and it was very informative! Keep writing!
