The term 'woke' actually has a much longer history than previously thought, and has its roots in social justice movements from the 1960s in the USA. When it comes to the word 'lit', there are multiple meanings. One of them is very old, while the other is used mostly in a specific genre of music, but is widepsread enough to potentially be entered into the English dictionary soon.
