DES'REE - YOU GOTTA BE LYRICS

You Gotta Be Lyrics

Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try and 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
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
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, hey hey hey

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

Don't ask no questions, it goes on without you
Leaving you behind if you can't stand the pace
The world keeps on spinning
You can't stop it, if you try to
This time it's danger staring you in the face
oh oh oh

Remember
Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try and keep your head up to the sky

Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears
My oh my, hey, hey, hey...

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

I heard this song on the radio and couldn't find out what it was called and who sang it for ages. Then I saw the end of the video, and PBS used it for a bit as the background music for a commercial for their Kids PBS, I thought it was perfect for that. They have a different song in there now, and I have this song in a collection at long last.

I don't remember where I first heard this song, but I always remember having it in my mind. I've been working on my playlist lately and I totally forgot about Des'ree! The other night I was watching 'The Object of My Affection' and a 6 year old girl sings this song at the end of the movie; she said about three words and it instantly came back to me. Right then, I grabbed a pen and wrote 'Des'ree' on my hand.

Des'ree has a wonderful voice and is an excellent songwriter. We need more musicians like her (those with heart and morals) in the world. Thanks, Des'ree!
