Get Up - Tayyib Ali
Uh It's Eighteen
Life in the Keystone State
Doors opening
And they just close right in your face
You just gotta break in
Damn
A voice unheard
Don't you hear me calling
I really got nothing
But somehow I put it all in
I worry everyday
Do I deserve this hard sh*t
Flying to the top
But God tell me will I fall quick
When I make it there
Just life below the heavens
Above the blue sky
But I ain't got no exile
Like God why am I from a dirty
Place where lead fly
But I knew that I could change
It if I tried I'm down to ride
Hardest days of my life
Were no mother and father
On stage in the lights but look
None of them saw it
Stuck in rap roulette
The game is the revolver
Pulling the trigger on my future
Just take a chance
You won't believe it
I'm kindergarten dreaming
A prophet how I show
Them the light but they ain't see it
And you was in the streets
While I was packing up leaving
And everybody told me
Take it easy oh jesus
I don't wanna cry no more
I don't wanna try no more
They tell me give up
Give up give up
But I can't it's time to
Get up get up get up
Cause I can
I don't wanna cry no more
I dont wanna try no more
They tell me give up
Give up give up
But I can't it's time to
Get up get up get up
Cause I can
