Get Up

(In the morning when I rise) In the morning when I rise, I wipe the cold out my eyes. And I'm out on my way. To see if I can make it to another day. Get up, get out and get it, don't never lag behind. Them go for theirs, you go for yours, of course I'll go for mine. We went from drinking malt liquor to sipping rice wine. Going after large money up in this life time. Been broke, still broke but that about to change. From the project halls up to the hall of fame. From the ten trolley to out there switching lanes. Big things, big plans we go against the grain. If you understand, been there then you know the deal. Put ya hand up in the air if you know how I feel. Put ya hand up in the air ain't no stopping me. Buy up the world street by street like it monopoly. (In the morning when I rise) In the morning when I rise, I wipe the cold out my eyes. And I'm out on my way. To see if I can make it to another day. They not gon' see me falling. I got my Grandma calling. Me down from heaven, Telling me to go on, keep on stepping. I gotta keep my head up and maintain a smile. I'll get what I want, it might just be a while. I'll make them tears stop. I let my hair lock. I face the world good or bad now that I fear not. Fealing little, now I'm ready for whatever. Feeling like it's hell on earth so it gotta get much better. I'm a go on, get up, get out and get it. With the blood of a slave, I'm strong I can't forget it. You see me moving on, I'm moving up and out, I went from nothing into something what them talking bout. (In the morning when I rise) In the morning when I rise, I wipe the cold out my eyes. And I'm out on my way. To see if I can make it to another day. Wake up everyday thinking thoughts like this. Born poor, die poor, but gon' live like we rich. Gon' reach for the sky, whether sober or high. Gon' do what we do, get our piece of the pie. Fly gwan fly at least give it a try. Make music spend money look you dead in the eye. Never biting my tongue even when I be wrong. Up on some never had, always want and walking along. I wake up after a few hours of rest. Wash up, brush my teeth, kiss Bump and then get dressed. If I'm not on, then we sex and jump back in the tub. The day treat you how you start it, so it's showing me love.
