Get up Songtext

von Beverly Knight

Intro /
Hear me, yeah, yeah, ah ha hmm hear what, hear what, hear what

Verse 1/
Watch the way that people change
Flip the script and rearrange
Hoping they can just belong
Even when it's wrong uh-huh.
Searching for identity
What's the next philosophy?
What's the next big thing in town?
That they can surround?

Mid 8/
Don't feel no shame
Let them know you're not the same
Don't feel no way
You stand tall while people sway
True to yourself
Leave them fakers on the shelf
Heed your calling
Go and do your thing
Hear me?

Chorus/
Get up get up and hold your ground
You don't care what goes around
Stand up, stand up and hold your ground
Hold your ground
Dem no bigger than us
No bigger than we
No bigger than you
No bigger than me
Dem no bigger than us
No bigger than we
No bigger than you
No bigger than me

Verse 2/
Watch the way that people go
To the cat that runs the show
Next thing they are rolling thick
Down with that clique .hmmm!
Soon enough they act the same
Walk the same and talk the same
Until these so called inspired
State the look is tired…

Let me hear you say
