No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience Needed

Step out in the night when you get lonely
Listening for the sounds city ears don’t hear
I know your cross is gettin' heavier with every step
But I know a man who walked miles for you
Stop, take a look at yourself
Take a good look
Take a good look
Take a good look
Can’t talk to momma
'Cause she’d only tell ya she told you so
That some of us are still learning
That the real trick to life we all know
Life flashed to day at the dawning
Daytime, nighttime, we still don’t see
Why must we wait until morning
To wake up and be, wake up and be, wake up and be, wake up and be
Wake up and be
Now you and I both know there’s no such thing as up and down
And when your problems got you goin' 'round and 'round
Gotta talk like a man to poppa 'cause he don’t understand that
Since we’re part of the cross he’s carried dragging long enough
Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up
Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up
