Get Back Up

(album: Songs for The Eternal Optimist, Vol. 2 - 2020)

One step forward, two steps back
As long as I'm still breathing I'm ok with that
Got broad shoulders sitting on my back
And everyone knows what it's like to fail

Don't fold when it gets tough
What's done is done
You get back up
Don't look before you jump
Fall on your face
You get back up

Falling to pieces, can fall back in place
No matter what you're dealt with you can change the game
Desperation is a lonely place
It takes a friend to kick you when you're down

Don't fold when it gets tough
What's done is done
You get back up
Don't look before you jump
Fall on your face
You get back up

Always gonna be something going wrong
There's always something when you know whatchu know
Then you know
Then you know you don't fold

When you're on the ground
You get back up...
Don't look before you jump
Fall on your face
You get back up

When they knock you down
When you're on the ground
You get back up...
