An upbeat song detailing lyrics about overcoming your insecurities and being the best you can be.
I'm an average person who does hip hop and rap music on the side. I get very shy when I meet new people, but I'm very friendly and eager to help.
Story behind the song
This song I did a long time ago. It was basically made from various loops I had found on Logic Pro X.
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Look...
Life can be unfair, but that's how it goes.
Keep ya head up, even if it steps on your toes
And know that everyday is a challenge for the soul
That rewards those who work hard with the spiritual gold.
And everyday you live can be a sunny day
Beautiful weather like the times you go out to play.
The sun's lit people up from London to Timbuktu,
Now it'll come back around to do the same to you.
But I understand that you'll have your rainy days,
Days where you don't feel like going out to play.
Whether the rain is merely a drizzle or a downpour,
That leaves you feeling trapped on the ground floor.
But just know that it's a phase you can overcome,
Given time, those troubles will pop like bubblegum.
Again, life can be hard, but give it your all.
If you're in a bad place, just remember to stand tall.
[Hook]
If you feel as though the world isn't treating you fair,
And those around you aren't giving you care,
Just remember that you gotta give it your all
So you gotta keep your head up and stand tall.
(X2)
[Verse 2]
This for the people trapped in the corners
The people who were pushed to their borders,
The people who wish to be sweet like apples,
But turn sour due to emotional shrapnel.
The world can be a scary place, that I understand,
But it's those who fight through that get the upper hand.
The world does need change, that's no lie,
But it won't change if we just sit, sulk and cry.
United, we can make something out of nothing.
This is the truth and I'm far from bluffing.
I've been down before, I've been disheartened too.
But remember this: every change starts with you.
Occasionally, you will slip up like a hiccup,
But what's worst to do: to fail or to give up?
'Cause winners are not those fail and hit the grit,
But those people who keep trying and never quit.
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
You can do anything in this world,
Doesn't matter whether you're a boy or girl
'Cause there's no limit to what you can imagine,
On this planet, pretty much anything can happen.
Both good and bad, which you'll get's a gamble
Just be ready for whatever life gives you to handle.
Keep in mind, life won’t be pleasant all the time,
But once you push through, then you’ll want to shine.
Whether you’re at school or working 9 to 5,
There’s many different ways you can feel alive.
And when life makes you feel so unpure,
Just keep ya head up like Tupac Shakur.
‘Cause even the most blackest berry
Can shine bright In The Summertime, Mungo Jerry.
And nobody should go through life feeling small,
So keep ya head up, look to the sky and stand tall!
[Hook]
