Get up and try again You gotta get up and try again What you gon' do When the shit don't go just like you want it to go Get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) You gotta get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) What you gon' do When it don't go through just like you want it to We make the moves that break the rules A fool and his money are soon parted So we take from fools If and when you ever fall down just get back up Drop something, stop frontin', pick that shit back up Stand for something or fall for everything Wait for the right pitch and miss with every swing In the absence of the truth, bullshit prevails So what they did? Fucked around, threw truth in jail The objective is to keep you blind So along with the handcuffs on your arm they got shackles on your mind Seek and ye shall find (come on) Accepting failure is the only crime (what) Fall down eight time and get up nine Get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) You gotta get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) What you goin' do When the shit don't go just like you want it to go Get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) You gotta get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) What you goin' do When it don't go through just like you want it to Plenty a times a nigga slipped and fell Got right back up Slipped and fell Got up again Slipped and fell One time I didn't get up as quick as I did before It was hard as shit gettin' up off that floor (real talk) You want the raw? Ain't even about that It's about when opportunity knocks How you goin' be on the ground and expect to answer the door No matter how hard a nigga goin' through it You get up You better stand up like shit I know I'm goin' do it Don't disrespect Any support from fake friends cause what you do with fake friends Is figure if you done 'em wrong, make amends Walk your own Don't let 'em walk you And every once in awhile it's okay Get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) You gotta get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) What you goin' do? When the shit don't go just like you want it to go Get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) You gotta get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) What you goin' do When it don't go through just like you want it to Everyday we walk these dogs, we walk through the fog and One day where you walk, we'll put you up in the morgue (check it) The road was rough, but I'm built for it And when shit get tough that's real Make every move the strongest one Get down to go hard Cause the last [?]'ll be the longest one We know the difference between right and wrong so don't mix it And if it ain't broke, don't fix it If it ain't smoke, don't twist it I just hit y'all niggas with a jewel right there But most of y'all missed it (Check it) You fall out, get the fuck back up, try it again Get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) You gotta get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) What you goin' do When the shit don't go just like you want it to go Get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) You gotta get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) What you goin' do When it don't go through just like you want it to Get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) You gotta get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) Yo Ain't nothin' too big for the lord All you gotta do is have faith Fall down, get back up and try again That's all you can do Accepting defeat is a sin Get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) You gotta get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) What you goin' do when the shit don't go just like you want it to go Get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win) You gotta get up and try again ('Cause I'm 'a win)
