Get Back Up by Gemini Genesis Lyrics
Hook
You can't let nobody stand in your way (nah)
You just gotta get back up yeah
You just gotta get back up (yeah, let's go!)
And take down everything that you cannot change now
You just gotta get back up yeah
You just gotta get back up
Verse 1
Ayo I've fallen to my knees as I've begged and I've pleaded
So many times that I feel nothing's completed
But I've risen like the trees, moved along with the breeze
And realized that never in my life I'll be depleted
Yes, I will admit, life has left me with some hits
That have made me stop to think if I really would be missed
If I dropped it all and split but then I see the words written
As I hear the beat hitting, so no I'm not quitting
They done took me out the hood and put my mother in a box; what a vision to remember huh?
Now I'm doing what I could, finding keys to all the locks and praying hard through September
No time to surrender, nah
Now allow me to regress as I look towards success
Exercise all that I possess
We're here to transgress, make mistakes, clean the mess
I've collapsed but ascended so let me just express that
Hook
You can't let nobody stand in your way
You just gotta get back up yeah
You just gotta get back up
And take down everything that you cannot change now
You just gotta get back up yeah
You just gotta get back up
Verse 2
Ayo they never really knew what it truly was like
Writing down my pain, let it out on the mic
Unleash the negativity building up inside of me
Cause I couldn't let them see how I had to break free
On the run back and forth, dealt with loss of all sorts
And with every passing day I saw how life was really short
Never really got the chance to cherish what I had
I lost it all in a moment, 10 years I was mad
But I had to get up even though I was fed up
Never knew where I'd end up but I kept my head up
And through all the tribulations, I tried to stay sane
Made my way through the losses, celebrated what I gained
Life is full of ups and downs, guaranteed you'll fall down
Just make sure you get back up and go in another round
Appreciate when you're up and never let them count you out
Wipe your sweat and the blood, show them all what you're about
Hook
You can't let nobody stand in your way
You just gotta get back up yeah
You just gotta get back up
And take down everything that you cannot change now
You just gotta get back up yeah
You just gotta get back up
You can't let nobody stand in your way (nah)
You just gotta get back up yeah
You just gotta get back up (yeah, let's go!)
And take down everything that you cannot change now
You just gotta get back up yeah
You just gotta get back up
