Heave Ho!
Lips Lyrics

Nobody takes me seriously anyway
No one pays attention to and values my opinions or ideas.

Nobody's trying to hear what I got to say
No one is making an effort to listen to my thoughts or listen to what I have to say.

They can try and pull me down
Others may attempt to bring me down or undermine me.

But my feet stay off the ground
Despite their efforts, I stay strong and resilient, not allowing myself to be affected.

And I'll face em down on my own terms
I confront and challenge them in my own way, on my own terms, asserting my independence.

Comes as a shock, no they'll never learn
They are always surprised by my resilience and will never understand or grasp it.

I can see em cast the net
I can observe them trying to trap or confine me.

But they ain't got me cornered yet
However, they have not successfully trapped or restricted me.

Heave ho
A rallying cry or exclamation of determination and perseverance.

Come get it
Challenges the opposition to come and face me.

It's your loss
The consequences of not recognizing and valuing me are your own.

So petty
Describes their actions as small-minded, unimportant, and insignificant.

At what cost to you
What will you lose or sacrifice by not acknowledging and supporting me?

And I'll take my lead from the one who cares
I will follow and be guided by someone who genuinely cares for me.

She had my back till she wasn't there
She supported and stood up for me until she unexpectedly abandoned or betrayed me.

Doesn't matter who I tell
Regardless of who I confide in or share with.

They got me boxed up on the shelf
They have me trapped or confined, not allowing me to reach my full potential.

Someday soon my ride will come around
In the future, a positive change or opportunity will present itself.

I suggest you be there
I recommend that you take advantage of this opportunity and be present for it.

You make sure you'll be there
You should ensure that you don't miss out on this chance to be part of my success or progress.
