Letra da Música Get Up de Tayyib Ali

Uh... It's Eighteen
Life in the Keystone State..
Doors opening...
And they just close right in your face....
You just gotta break in
Damn....

[Verso 1: Tayyib Ali]
A voice unheard, don't you hear me calling?
I really got nothing but somehow I put it all in
I worry everyday, do I deserve this hard shit?
Flying to the top but God tell me will I fall quick?

When I make it there, just life below the heavens
Above the blue sky, but I ain't got no exile
Like God, why am I from a dirty place where lead fly?
But I knew that I could change it if I tried, I'm down to ride

Hardest days of my life were no mother and father
On stage in the lights but look, none of them saw it
Stuck in rap roulette, the game is the revolver
Pulling the trigger on my future, just take a chance

You won't believe it, I'm kindergarten dreaming
A prophet how I show them the light, but they ain't see it
And you was in the streets while I was packing up leaving
And everybody told me take it easy, oh jesus....

[Hook: Tayyib Ali]

I don't wanna cry no more
I don't wanna try no more
They tell me give up, give up, give up
But I can't it's time to get up, get up, get up
Cause I can

I don't wanna cry no more
I dont wanna try no more
They tell me give up, give up, give up
But I can't it's time to get up, get up, get up
Cause I can

Tayyib Ali
Keystone State of Mind
Now listen..uh...
