Get Back Up
Mike Lookee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You can't let nobody stand in your way
You just got to get back up, now
You just got to get back up, ohh
Take down, everything that you cannot change now You just got to get back up, now
You just got to get back up, ohh yeah
Yeah, I look around we been working hard
Tell my people we ain't stopping until we reach the top We came a long way from nothing, now we want it all Looking back where we used to be, now where we are They used to tell me I ain't good enough
I never listened to them haters so I choose to march I'm trying to get my little brother what I never had
Do it for my mother, hoping I can make you proud
And for my homies reppin VA
Working night days hoping for a a pay check
And we ain't stopping until they put us in the suitcase And we gonna take over the world as a movement Paolo Coelho motivation on my fucking life
Eating rappers like it's nothing better step aside
I put my life on hold just to chase a dream
Even Lebron had a dream, now who got the ring
You can't let nobody stand in your way
You just got to get back up, now
You just got to get back up, ohh
Take down, everything that you cannot change now You just got to get back up, now
You just got to get back up, ohh yeah
Im trying to take a journey, they keep stepping on me And all I see in my eyes is all the trouble around
And I just trynna believe this is temporary
Coz I don't wanna disappoint anyone around me, Yeah I made mistakes I cannot repeat
Trying to stay away from trouble and stand on my feet And keep the engine running boy we can handle it
Coz we ain't searching for the love called charity This is my last chance, went trough enough pain And I ain't gonna loose my time for the nonsense Coz if I ever look back, I'm a dead man
And im just looking for the island of a free man
And im a fighter I ain't givin up easily
Try to run away from my self, my misery.
Whatever happens in the future call it destiny
And if you are not in it homie, you wasn't meant to be.
You can't let nobody stand in your way
You just got to get back up, now
You just got to get back up, ohh
Take down, everything that you cannot change now You just got to get back up, now
You just got to get back up, ohh yeah
We can never get a chance to do it twice
And when you fall you can fly back
So get your self‐read for the kill,
I been waiting for this moment since I was a kid And I will never look back, ready for the win And if you ever get a chance take everything
You can't let nobody stand in your way
You just got to get back up, now
You just got to get back up, ohh




Take down, everything that you cannot change now You just got to get back up, now
You just got to get back up, ohh yeah
