Get Up

Some days I just can’t win
Nobody’s on my side, and I can’t find a friend
Every time I try to stand I get knocked down
Again and again and I skin my knees
And  I feel so unhappy
Like the whole world’s laughing at me
It’s so bad, it makes me say
“How come everybody wants to treat me that way?”

But even though I’m down so low
I’ve got courage in my heart and it starts to grow, so
I won’t lie flat, down like that
I’ll bounce right back ‘cause I know it’s a fact that
I’ll be better when I’m on my feet
And I’m never gonna admit defeat
I’ll listen to my heart it’s beating
“Get up, get up, get up!”

When I feel low, low, low
Flat on the ground, ground, ground
I just get up, up, up
Can't hold me down, down, down

Cause when I'm up, up, up
On my two feet, feet, feet
I feel so good, good, good
I can't be beat, beat, beat

I can’t be beat


Well, I try so hard to keep putting one foot in
Front of the other again but then
I get tripped up every time I do
One step forward and I fall back two
Yes, I try my best, but sometimes it’s a mess
Seems like every time I make a little progress
Something comes along to ruin everything
Swinging like a wrecking ball right through the middle of my day
And I stare in disbelief
It’s hard to see my best laid plans in pieces
It’s rough, it makes me say
“How come it never seems to be my day?”
But just when I think I’m down
I get back up and I tell myself
“You gotta get movin’ , cause it’s proven
This is not the worst that you’ve been
Through and I’m on my feet then
You won’t find me retreating
I’ll follow my heart, it’s beating
“Get up, get up, get up!”

When I feel low, low, low
Flat on the ground, ground, ground
I just get up, up, up
Can't hold me down, down, down

Cause when I'm up, up, up
On my two feet, feet, feet
I feel so good, good, good
I can't be beat, beat, beat

I can’t be beat

So if you find yourself sometimes
Down in the dirt, hurt at the bottom of the slide
And you’re wondering why
You’re flat on you back, staring up at the sky
While the other kids play
You lie there, maybe you should stay that way
Cause the voice in your head keeps saying
“How come nothing ever goes my way?”
But there’s no point in crying
Pick yourself up,  give it one more try
The ladder need climbing, you might just find
You’re right back up at the top of the slide
So listen to a better voice, it speaks
From your heart to your head, from your head to your feet
It’s a message that keeps repeating
“Get up, get up, get up!"

When I feel low, low, low
Flat on the ground, ground, ground
I just get up, up, up
Can't hold me down, down, down

Cause when I'm up, up, up
On my two feet, feet, feet
I feel so good, good, good
I can't be beat, beat, beat


No, No won’t find me down for long no
I’ll be up tomorrow
Go with my heart and my feet will follow
Uh-oh uh-oh uh-oh
I’ll get up again
Cause when I do you know it’s true that
I can’t be beat
