You Gotta Be

Des'ree Weekes, Ashley Ingram

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 and release your fears
Stand up and be counted
Don't be ashamed to cry

You gotta be
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 is
Love will save the day

Herald to what your mama said
Readin' 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

You gotta be
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 is
Love will save the day

Time ask no questions
It moves 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

Remember

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 and release your fears

My oh my oh my

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

You gotta be
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

All I know
All I know
Love will save the day
All I know
All I know is that
Love will save the day

Save the day
Save the day
Save the day
Save the day

Oooh love will save the day
Oooh love will save the day
Oooh love will save the day
Oooh love will save the day
Oooh

Oooh
(We believe that)
Love will save the day
Oooh
Love will save the day
Ooh
Love will save the day
Ooh

Oooh
(We believe that)
Love will save the day
Oooh
Love will save the day
Ooh
Love will save the day
I know that love will save the day
Oooh
Oooh
Oooh
Oooh
