Keep It Up Songtext
von Groundation

You taught us wrong, you taught us right
You told us black and then said white
What would we do if it weren′t for you?
You told us this, you told us that
You gave us rights, can't take them back
What would we do if it weren′t for you?

We're not expendable
Don't you try to break us down
What would you do? What would it prove?
We′re gonna win, you′re gonna lose
There's no escaping what′s about to go down
What would you do? What would it prove?

So if you're feeling down, keep it up
Just keep it up, yeah, right or wrong
Now don′t you take it wrong, take it right
Just take it right and it will turn right or wrong
Spinning, spinning slow


Constant time will divide more, can't we?
Puts pressure on our backs everyday
So when you take a stock, looks like the value
The value dissolve
The price is lifted, the weight seems shifted
Everybody ready for the show
But when the game just stop
Look like them fumble, them fumble them ball, yeah

This is your child′s dream
There's no one to straighten or be afraid
You are meek and, oh, who's gonna pay the cost of your living?
No child′s dream
There′s no one to stake and guard your head
You are weak and, oh, who's gonna, oh

Don′t you take this wrong, take it right
Just take it right, yeah, and it will turn right or wrong
It will turn, it will turn
Man, prove me wrong, do it right
Just do it right, yeah, right or wrong

Your heart breaks, there's no one to straighten your bed
You are meek and, oh, no one′s here to straighten your debt
Your child's dream, there′s no one to stake and guard your head
You are weak and, oh, who's gonna pay


Oh, don't you take this wrong, take it right
Just take it right, yeah, and it will turn right or wrong
Well, if you prove me wrong, take it right
Just take it right, yeah, and it will turn right or wrong
It will turn, it will turn
Don′t you take it wrong, make it right
Just make it right, yeah, right or wrong
