GET UP

Music and Lyrics by Jason Yudoff

I like it when you give me affection
but don’t pretend to be inside my head
Waiting for my resurrection
Hit rock bottom but I’m still not dead
don’t let it get you down
I’m giving it all I’ve got to give
Help me get up off the ground
I’ve been alive - Now show me how to live

Gotta get up, gotta get up, gotta get, get-get up (2)

Still haven’t tapped my potential
I feel the best is still inside of me
You think it’s inconsequential
Too hard for you to believe what you can’t see
I still get up every day
Try to be the man that I’m supposed to be
I might stumble on the way
but I won’t stop until I make my peace

Gotta get up, gotta get up gotta get, get-get up (4) GET UP

Oh I like to tell myself
that I’m still getting by
You can close your eyes and smile
but you don’t believe it
Unspoken though I know I’m running out of time
don’t want to say goodbye

I’m innocent until proven guilty
but you could never settle for second best
So let’s get on with the mutiny
You can never forgive and I can never forget
Wait a minute - what’s that sound?
I think they’re coming to get me
Let me take a last look around
My heart is heavy but my soul is free

Gotta get up, gotta get up gotta get, get-get up (4)
