Man Up
XROSS

(feat. Billy Steele)



Intro

Life is a trip, it’s gets hard sometime, some people say that’s life, but growing up in this world as a young black male, trying to be a man, it’s tough, it’s real tough.


Course

Keep moving on, and keep your head up,

It’s time to stand up for real dog, and man up,


I know that life gets hard sometime, but trust me you can take it,

I know this world’s a crazy place believe me you can make it,


Cause you’re a true survivor, sometime you stand alone,

But you should always pray, no matter what’s going on,


So gone on and man up, cause brighter days a coming

And when they get here, you can tell them that you came from nothing.


verse I

Aye today's the first of class

And I’m gone give you answers so that you can pass


When you add it all up you can do the math

Subtract all your mistakes cause they in the pass


The game never changes man it just evolves

It comes back around every year just like Santa clause


The more live the more you learn, and that's a known fact

The more you know the more you earn, so you should study that


Cause every day is a another day that you can make a change

Start with my mind, reprioritize that way you think


Don’t sit around and try to wait for people to help you out

Be a go getter, and go get it, then they’ll help you out


That’s what it’s all about, that’s what life’s about

Overcoming your fears, put faith in God, and lose the doubt


Put your pride aside, stay humble, and let the crowd pass

Become your own man, a leader, and get that honest cash


Course

Keep moving on, and keep your head up,

It’s time to stand up for real dog, and man up,


I know that life gets hard sometime, but trust me you can take it,

I know this world’s a crazy place believe me you can make it,


Cause you’re a true survivor, sometime you stand alone,

But you should always pray, no matter what’s going on,


So gone on and man up, cause brighter days a coming

And when they get here, you can tell them that you came from nothing.


Verse II

Money comes and money goes so don't caught up

Take the price tag off your soul and don't get bought up


A minds a terrible thing to waste so you should keep yours

Flip the channel, turn the radio down, and read yours


Everybody got some problem, you ain’t the only one

But everybody don’t solve problems, but you could be one


You can be the first to graduate and get the job

Be the one that they congratulate for getting the job


You never knew your daddy cool that’s another lesson

Only more reason for you to raise your own and enjoy the blessing


A sad story’s only sad when you tell it sad

But you can write your own story and tell your story gladly


Life ain’t playing with cha weather you’re ready or not

But XROSS praying with cha, I’m praying that you never stop


Barak Obama, black president, boy that’s cool

No more excuses, look within man, it’s time to move


BRIDGE

When the world seems cold and you feel you like your all alone

Put your faith in God and he will make you strong

No matter what you going thru,

The lord is always there for you

He will always hear your prayer,

I know that God, he cares

I said I know that God he cares!


Course

Keep moving on, and keep your head up,

It’s time to stand up for real dog, and man up,


I know that life gets hard sometime, but trust me you can take it,

I know this world’s a crazy place believe me you can make it,


Cause you’re a true survivor, sometime you stand alone,

But you should always pray, no matter what’s going on,


So gone on and man up, cause brighter days a coming

And when they get here, you can tell them that you came from nothing.
