Get Up!
(Tani)
-----------------------------
When I was young – I found a drug
It was stronger than coke or any heroin blush
And it was free – what a buzz
Nothing could top that adrenaline rush
Use a left – use a right
There’s a rush with a punch thrown with all of your might
A painter paints – A poet writes
We all do what we can but a fighter just fights
Get up – Or stay down
If you can get to your feet, we can go another round
It ain’t the belt - or the crown
It’s the thrill of putting you back on the ground
I met a girl – We fell in love
And for the love of that woman, I put down the gloves
But there’s a fire – I don’t speak of
Something so base, I’ll never rise above
Get up – Or stay down
If you can get to your feet, we can go another round
It ain’t pride - or profound
It’s the thrill of putting you back on the ground
There’s always one – in every crowd
Usually blitzed, obnoxious and loud
He wants his shot – Though he’s plowed
To be a big man and make his drunken friends proud
I look at her – she looks at me
and I can see in her eyes, she’s wondren', “What’s it gonna be?” |
