Given the fact that it's part of a transitive verb, you either woke up yourself or woke up someone else. Woke is not an adjective so it stands to reason that a phrase such as I am woke doesn't exist.

Get the Wokemug. A term originally coined by the Black community, that in previous years was used to describe being aware of and understanding the unfair treatment of the working class as perpetuated by oligarchs and other elites, but that is now moreso just used as a scapegoat word for conservatives and other ignorant people to hide their utter lack of empathy. Nowadays, words such as woke and wokeness are almost exclusively used by chuds and politicans as a proxy to perpetuate the ongoing culture war in America, while simultaneously turning a blind eye to those who have been effectively raped by society.
The term gradually changed hands from the american Left to the Right sometime during/after Trump's presidency when conservatives unanimously conspired to steal the term and corrupt it to serve their own purposes. (Much in the same way that white people in decades past have co-opted many other various things from black culture, such as e.g. music genres like Rock/Jazz/Blues/Funk, slang and vernacular, fashion styles, or erasing black contributions to arts & sciences.)
In truth, the word 'woke' has no real meaning. (as of the date of this post).

Person A: "I'm tired of tolerating all this woke virtue-signaling going on today."
Person B: "So what's 'woke' about it?"
Person A: "Well... there's like--*begins absent-mindedly rattling off a list of random minor things liberals do that annoys them*"
Person B: "Hmm, interesting. Can you actually define what the term 'woke' means?"
Person A: "Ummm...... it's when you...... it's when.... like, when people--..... uhh, blue hair, or... something...?"
Person B: "Yeah, didn't think so."

Get the wokemug. WOKE
The Catch-all used to describe those who try to excuse THEIR Racist acts by calling it something other than Racist. The Term POC (people of color) means everyone EXCEPT white people, so when the Woke discriminate AGAINST white people, or discriminate FOR the POC (which is everyone EXCEPT white people), it's STILL Racist...and it's STILL wrong.
Easiest way to identify a WOKE person is to ask them if it's okay to discriminate against white people.

Get the WOKEmug. A foreign policy is used by nation-states to dictate to other nations based on perceived injustices the other nations are committing.

Get the Woke and Bokemug. Art designed to annoy or provoke so your rejection proves you’re a bigot, dressed up as moral enlightenment.
"The Rings of Power felt like woke art: every scene crafted to frustrate Tolkien purists, so their anger could be used against them."
