You know you’re moving too fast
You need to slow down your pace In such a rush to have more
You’re willing to change your face pretending that you’re okay while they strip you away
And then you paint on a smile Tatoo I’m zen on your chest
Then when they knock you back down
You say it’s all for the best
that it is only a test until they come for the rest
You gotta, gotta
You gotta gotta
Get up
When you feel the tide
Rushing over head
When you feel that life
Has gotten the best (of you)
Get up
When you feel the fire
And the flames consume
Don’t you leave yourself
When you leave the room (you’re smoking)
Get up
Your life will feel like a ride
Floating high on cloud 9
Then you will quickly lose breath
On that spiral back down
Rollercoastering round From the sky to the ground
Spotlight’s shining on you It’s time to take center stage
No more living rearview
Living life as spectator
Sitting in the background Scared, waiting to be found
You gotta, gotta
You gotta, gotta
Get up
When you feel the tide
Rushing over head
When you feel that life
Has gotten the best (of you)
Get up When you feel the fire
And the flames consume
Don’t you leave yourself
When you leave the room (you’re smoking)
Get up
Yeah
I get that When that Straw that broke the camel’s back Moment Has ya Hopeless
I’m feelin that Jokeless Living that Final Notice Stats Back against the wall
Then you can see they all are bogus
Praying that you fall While you standing And you crawl Saying to you that it’s god
And it’s all in love
As they assassinate ya dreams
Then wash you in the blood Yeah I see that Parasites
But you’re the legend history writes
They’ll read you Believe that
Get back up Remember that
And then you say to yourself
I’m tired of the struggle I lose more than I win Each steps a battle Can’t tell the difference If I move or stand idle But there’s hope here my friend
You gotta gotta
Gotta gotta
Get up
When you feel the tide
Rushing over head
When you feel that life
Has gotten the best (of you)
Get up
When you feel the fire
And the flames consume
Don’t you leave yourself
When you leave the room
