Lyrics

Get Up
by E.Bramlett

We ain't gotta drink that much. We ain't gotta smoke that much. We don't always have to take the easy shortcuts. We don't have to eat all that junk. C'mon man, get up.

Motivation: 101 (Get Up)
Pop quiz, hot shot; 'til the world blow up
Phoot-butt, lazy, good-for-nothing
You need to be 'bout your business and get on your function
Look at the haterz, yeah, they're calling you names
And you believe them fools -just like a lame
Them tricks is running game, so get your mind right
So you're not gonna fall for the banana in the tail pipe
That's right -start thinking for yourself
Too much peer pressure can explode, and leave you dead
When you played out, and laid out -they will turn on you
Dumb idiots flip the script: They call you stupid fool
And you really are if you take heed to the haterz
Let 'em dictate ya and degrade your human nature
See, I let 'em know they can kiss my backside
And if they don't let me be, then we can let it ride
Know your self and understand on it
Know your self and understand on it

Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up
Get up off your backside -and get to it
Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up
Get Up; Get Up off your backside -and let's do it

Oooh shawty this, and ohh shorty that
But shorty ain't about nothing; So why you jockin' that?
She ain't trying to better herself, she trying to get over
You supposed to be a king but you going out like Rover (..arrf!)
Fido, Toto... a do-do
She got you breaking your neck because you fell for the okie-doke
And what you laughing at girl? You ain't no better
She dismissed the good dude for the guy that hits her
Oops! Upside your head with a knuckle-sandwich
He sold you a dream, then hit you with a balled-up hand fist
And he barely sold it, you just wanted to fall for it
You better dummy up because your life is in the toilet
I know it's hard -but I gotta bring it that way
Get off your rump chump, and make that change

Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up
Get up off your backside -and get to it
Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up
Get Up; Get Up off your backside -and let's do it

Don't get me wrong, don't get it twisted
Don't get mad and catch hurt feelings
You know....I got nothing but love for ya
That's why I keep it real for my sisters and brothers
I know I ain't perfect, and I ain't trying to be
But I'm trying to get better and do the right thing
You can be great if you put your mind to it
And take action to follow through with it
We can be great if we put our minds to it
And make power moves to follow through with it
Know your self and understand on it ....g-yeah

Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up
Get up off your backside -and get to it
Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up
Get Up; Get Up off your backside -and let's do it

Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up
Get up off your backside -and get to it
Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up
Get Up; Get Up off your backside -and let's do it
