[Chorus: Cee-Lo]
Nigga, you need to get up, get out, and get something, don't let the days of your life pass by
You need to get up, get out, and get something, don't spend all your time tryna get high
You need get up, get out, and get something, how will you make it if you never even try?
You need to get up, get out, and get something 'cause you and I got to do for you and I
[Verse 1: Cee-Lo]
I don't recall ever graduatin' at all
Sometimes I feel I'm just a disappointment to y'all
Every day I just lay around then I can't be found
Always askin', "Give me some," livin' life like a bum
Times is rough, my auntie got enough problems of her own
Nigga, you supposed to be grown
I agree, I try to be the man I'm 'posed to be
But negativity is all you seem to ever see
I admit (What?), I've done some dumb shit
And I'm probably gon' do some more
You shouldn't hold that against me though (Why not?)
Why not? My music's all that I got
But some time must be invested for this to be manifested
I know you know, but I'm gon' say this to you, I
Get high, but I don't get too high (Why?)
So what's the limit 'posed to be?
That must be why you can't get your ass up out the bed before three
You need to get up, get out, cut that bullshit out
Ain't you sick and tired of havin' to do it all?
Damn, what up with all these questions?
You act as though you know somethin' I don't, do you have any suggestions?
'Cause every job I get is cruel and demeanin'
Sick of takin' trash out and toilet bowl cleanin'
But I'm also sick and tired of strugglin'
I never, ever thought I'd to have resort to drug smugglin'
Nah, that ain't what I'm about
Cee-Lo will just continue travelin' his route
Without any doubt or fear
I know the Lord ain't brought me this far so he could drop me off here
Did I make myself clear?
