Stay Up

Yo, If you really want to win,
You have to beat the enemy within.
Don't go down
Stay Up
Put your hands to the skies
If you stay on the grind
Stay Up
Keep your head to the clouds
While they're pulling down
Stay UP
Put your hands to the skies
With your positive vibes
Stay up
Stay up
It's another day
Waking up to hate
His lady told him
Ain't no time to waste
Today ain't the day
For your little rhymes
Instead go find
Another 9 to 5
What you want to do
Is not considered a job
You aint never getting paid
For turning knobs
He just heard
Ain't no time to waste
Made a mental note
To Pick up the pace
The mountain he's climbing
Is very steep
So he's moving bricks
While the others sleep
Eyes red and blurred
Speech slow and slurred
He keeps going Cause he know
Gotta find the words
It's the song from the birds again
And the wife's curse words again
It's not for you to understand why
He gotta try
Cause he was born to fly
Stay Up
Put your hands to the skies
If you stay on the grind
Stay UP
Keep your head to the clouds
While they're pulling down
Stay UP
Put your hands to the skies
With your positive vibes
Stay up
Stay up
It's another day
Of being told he failed
Today
Music put a check in the mail
It's not enough to retire
But enough to reignite that fire
Look at them now
Trying to just clown
Any ol tactic to keep a brother down
He's like Rocky in the last round
Inside strength and his heart is bound
Stay Up
The world want you on the ground
Like the rest of the folks that wake up and frown
No. He polished up his flow
Fixed up the beats
Here comes the beast
Every day he sleeps
With the sun in the east
Got to get it, just to the least
Cause he know this life is leased
Stay hungry even after the feasts
Stay Up
Put your hands to the skies
If you stay on the grind
Stay Up
Keep your head to the clouds
While they're pulling down
Stay UP
Put your hands to the skies
With your positive vibes
Stay up
Stay up
Beat the enemy within. Keeping you from the crown
You worked for this moment
Don't go down
Pain aint nothing but a motivator
Like every word that comes from the haters
Passion over logic, Broke the odds
Can't calculate the way of gods
Manifest destiny
Don't go down
Win from within
So u won't go down
Stay Up
You can't listen to what they say
It's the hate trying to block your way from the finish line
Get em out your mind
Cause they're scared to live
They wanna stop your grind
Stay Up
Put your hands to the skies
If you stay on the grind
Stay Up
Stay Up
Stay Up
Put your hands to the skies
If you stay on the grind
Stay Up
Keep your head to the clouds
While they're pulling down
Stay UP
Put your hands to the skies
With your positive vibes
Stay up
Stay up
Man. They're gonna tell you, go down, stay down
You can't win. Just save yourself the embarrassment
They're gonna ask you, why are you still trying
What the hell is wrong with you
And that little voice starts saying well maybe they're right
Silence it all
Stay focused on the goal
Failure is not an option today
Stay up
Stay up
