| When everyday life starts to get you down
|
| And your problems seem too many
|
| When your job is shit, and the rent is due
|
| And you’re down to your last penny
|
| Where do you go, who do you count on?
|
| No place left to hide
|
| When your parents don’t like you
|
| And they told you so
|
| They wish that you had died
|
| I look at you, and I know what to do
|
| I look at you, I know what to do
|
| I look at you, and I know what to do
|
| I look at you, I know what to do
|
| You gotta try
|
| Hey I’m not here to preach or tell you
|
| The way you got to live
|
| Just stop and think about what you want
|
| And what you want to give
|
| Goddamn it life is what we’re here for
|
| Not to watch the fuckin' TV
|
| But if that’s where you think the answer is
|
| Then brother get away from me
|
| I look at you, and I know what to do
|
| I look at you, I know what to do
|
| I look at you, and I know what to do
|
| I look at you, I know what to do
|
| You got to get up in the morning
|
| And try again
|
| Not tomorrow, do it today
|
| Young or old
|
| It don’t matter man
|
| Don’t let your life slip away
|
| You gotta take a chance
|
| Push yourself
|
| Stand up for what you know is right
|
| Don’t take no shit from anyone
|
| Let 'em know that you’re ready to fight
|
| Try again
|
| Now there’s no easy answers
|
| But here’s my final advice to you
|
| Take control of your life man
|
| Work hard and follow through
|
| And if a friend is traveling a rocky road
|
| Then help him on his way
|
| Tell him that he’s got to try again
|
| And try harder everyday
|
| I look at you, and I know what to do
|

|
| I look at you, and I know what to do
|
| I look at you, I know what to do
|
| You got to get up in the morning
|
| And try again
|
| Not tomorrow, do it today
