You Gotta Be lyrics
by Des'ree



BRIDGE

Listen as your day unfolds;

Challenge what the future holds;

Try to keep your head up to the sky;

Lovers they may cause you tears;

Go ahead release your fears;



Stand up and be counted;

Don't be ashamed to cry;

You gotta be;



CHORUS

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser;

You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger;

You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay together;

All I know, all I know love will save the day;



Herald what your mother said;

Read the books your father read;

Try to solve the puzzles in your own sweet time;

Some may have more cash than you;

Others take a different view;

My oh my, hey, hey;



CHORUS



Time asks no questions, it goes on without you;

Leaving you behind if you can't stand the pace;

The world keeps on spinning, can't stop it if you tried to;

This time it?s danger staring you in the face;

Oh, oh, oh;

Remember;



BRIDGE



My oh my, hey, hey, hey;



CHORUS (2X)



Got to be bold, got to be bad, got to be wise, don?t ever say;

Got to be hard, not too, too hard;

All I know is, love will save the day;



CHORUS (to fade)
