Roll With It
Backstreet Boys Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Roll with it
Roll with it
Roll with it
You've got to roll with it

If you ever feel like no one cares
When you try your best but you get nowhere
Don't give in
'Cause the times will come again
When they criticize every move you make
And you've had as much as you're gonna take
Don't you worry
Soon enough things will change

Bridge

And when it seems as though
Nobody understands a man
(understands)
Don't let your head hang down
You want to just stick to the plan

[Chorus]
Roll with it
That's what you gotta do
Roll with it
Roll with it
You've got to roll with it
That's what you gotta do
Roll with it
Just roll, roll, roll with it
Roll with it
You've got to roll with it

Just roll with it
Everything will be fine
Just roll with it
It's gonna be alright
Just roll with it
Don't put yourself down
Just roll with it

If you just can't find someone to trust
When you give your heart but you don't get much
Don't you worry the time is gonna come

The world's a school
So much to learn
So learn it well
The world's a stage
So act the fool
No woman understands
You've got to

[Chorus]

Just roll with it
Just roll with it
Just roll with it
Everybody just roll with it
Just roll with it
Come on now
Just roll with it
That's what you gotta do
Just roll with it
Backstreet says
Roll with it
Come on y'all
Roll with it

All the fellas roll
Roll with it
All the ladies roll
Roll with it
Everybody roll
You've got to roll with it
Just roll
Roll with it
Just roll with it
You've got to roll with it
You've got to
You've got to
You've got to
Roll

Everybody
Anybody
Everybody roll with it
Everybody
Anybody
Everybody roll




Everybody roll
Everybody roll

John Doe (Juanci Dou)

@Angrey Ramirez es un tipo de motivación para algunos momentos difíciles
Dice que si nadie te valora
O si alguien te critica todo lo que haces
Si sientes que das mucho amor y no recibes nada cercano a lo que das
No te rindas
Solo continúa
No te preocupes solo continúa
Apegado al plan continúa adelante
Ya llegara el momento
