Rhythm Nation / You Gotta Be

Rhythm, rhythm, rhythm nation
Rhythm, rhythm, rhythm nation
People of the world today are looking for better way of life
We are a part of the rhythm nation
We are a part of the rhythm nation

Looking for a better way of life
We are a part, we are a part
We are a part of the rhythm nation

Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try and keep your head up to the sky
All these, they may cause you tears
Go ahead, release your fears
Stand up and be counted, 'cause you wanna let you try

You gotta be, you gotta be bad
You gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, gotta keep it together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day
All I know, all I know, love will save the day
(We are a part of the rhythm nation)

Time asks no questions, it goes on without you (without you)
Leaving you behind, if you can't stand a pace (can't stand a pace)
The world keeps on spinning, can't stop it if you try to
The best part is dangerous, staring you in the face

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, gotta keep it together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta, gotta, gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough
You gotta, gotta, gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm
Gotta, gotta keep it together
All I know, all I know, all I know

You gotta be cool
(People of the world today are looking for better way of life)
And calm (we are a part of the rhythm nation)
So strong (people of the world today are looking for better way of life)
'Cause we are a part of the rhythm nation
I'm dreaming (people of the world today)
I'm dreaming (are looking for better way of life)
Of a better way, a better way (we are a part of the rhythm nation)
Of life, of life (people of the world today are looking for better way of life)
'Cause we are a part of the rhythm nation

All I know, all I know
All I know, all I know is love will save the day
Hmm-mm
