Ms. Dynamite Get Up, Stand Up (Bonus Track) Lyrics

get up stand up, make a difference

one shout is louder than a thousand whispers

each breath brings death closer

what breath u got left, make the most of

till your life is over

sieze the time, life don't pause that record

no rewind, one time to hear that section

hear opinions, but you've gotta rule in your kingdom

make choices that cause you to realise your vision

you don't show it, but you can do it, blood i know it

don't flow it but we still both thug poets

raised by momma, nuff cut offs, gas and electrics

certain birthdays I ain't get shit, but it's cool mums

forget it, your love, the only reason that i ain't sleep

only reason at these pricks I ain't poppin' off clips

got family and friends that i'd lay down and die for

forces in my head, but in my heart i'm still for the life force

get up woah stand up

stand up and make a change

get up oh stand up now

get up and make a change woah

however you hurtin', situation worsens by lack of earners

system only workin' for certain persons

a man 'll get caught tryna keep the rent up

but a paedophile 'll spend less time bent up

next time you pick up blood, think of the consequences

someone's daughter or son cracked out on park benches

can't do it i know, can't afford to have a soul

'cause if you thinkin' you slippin' and not on ya toes

genocide turned suicide, it's not coincidental

no chains, but it's worse when the shackles are mental,

scared to shine, don't share, breed like rabbits, feed abuse of habits, and the situations get drastic

kick in more, sure that it's soon to be you

we enterin, it's hard to be strong

when the lifestyles so temptin', fat pockets

getting money, grabbin hoes away

but if we don't change today our kids grow the same way

get up oh stand up

stand up get up and fight

get up oh stand up now

don't just survive and live your life

however hard shit gets, try and maintain focus

'cause god always side with the most hate and the brokest

i know theres a god 'cause all the times i should of died

impossible circumstance, somehow i survived

plus theres the fact that the universe is designed

blood circulates, light reach earth in the same time

stars and cells born at rates you can't count

body earth water solids exactly the same amount

Our everything, it's so insignificant

earth not even cell sized compared to total existence

eighteen years ago, i weren't even visible

now i spit lyrical syllables for spiritual criminals

nothin' worse than potential that remained hidden

don't look back could of, would of, should of, to late i didn't

while most of us struggle to strive for what we believe in

imagine the strength of those who died for what they believe in

get up, oh stand up

stand up and make a change

get up oh stand up now

get up and make a change woah

get up oh stand up now

don't just survive

live your life, live your life
