Get Up In It!

If I did not know you knew,
Should I keep my thoughts from you?
Should I lock up in a box,
Fearing life just like you do?

Come on.
Come on!

A woulda coulda shoulda,
Doesn't work for me at all.
I'm not gonna stop or drop,
This peace of mind that I've got!

Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on, come on...
And turn on!

Your life is worth a minute.
But that much you don't put in it.
You sit with aches and pains.
Complain like it's a game.

Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on, come on...
And turn on!

Get up in it.
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on, come on...
And turn on!

Your life is worth a minute.
But that much you don't put in it.
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on, come on...
And turn on!

Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on, come on...
And turn on!

If I did not know you knew,
Should I keep my thoughts from you?
Should I lock up in a box,
Fearing life just like you do?

Come on,
Get up in it.
Come on!
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it.
Come on, come on...
And turn on!
