'recordarse' (no 'r' on the end) is a pronominal verb. It means 'be remembered' or 'be reminded'. I know of no case when it could mean 'to awaken', except in a literal sense that a memory is awakened due to it being remembered/reminded.
There is a non-pronominal form-recordar-that means 'remember/recall' or 'remind'.

For 'awaken', use 'despertar'. For 'become awake', use 'despertarse'.
