Amel Larrieux - Get Up Lyrics






6 am
Getting out of bed again
Can't get back in
Cuz sl eep ain't gonna pay the rent
Day to day
They got you working like a slave
Takin' credit for the work you gave
And stealing your raise
But I

[Chorus:]
I know you're down
When you gon get up
I see you're down
When you gon get up
I know you're down
When you gon get up
I see you're down
When you gon get up

People try
To pull the wool over your eyes
Don't know why
They want to profit from your demise
They lie
To cove r up how weak they are inside, oh
Baby, baby don't you cry
All you got's you r pride
So I

[Chorus]

[Chorus (repeat till end)]

    Nice groove, love it! Thanks for share it! En octubre del 99 descubríamos a Amel Larrieux con este "Get Up" el sencillo con el que se presentaba y que abría su álbum debut, "Infinite Possibilities" editado en febrero de 2000 por Epic Records. El álbum, que llegó al puesto setenta y nueve en el Billboard 200 y recibió muy buenas criticas, fue su primer trabajo tras abandonar el grupo Groove Theory con el que se había dado a conocer. #RnB

  53. G.... ....

    It's almost like Youtube is actually making fun of us by putting an advert for Nicki Minaj's new song and her stupid face looking at us while we're trying to listen to this real music!

  54. D.... A....

    brilliant....and did you notice she kept all of her cloths on too. Amel is soulful singer not a demented stipper clown with a insecurity complex. brilliant comment

  55. g.... ....

    Tbh everyone's going on and on about the industry....we have the viewing/buying power that makes this industry. Without us the clowns wouldn't be getting sales so we obviously aren't using our heads enough to come together and boycott shit......until sleepy humans wake up/ we become more vocal shit will not change. This goes for every aspect of this earths well-being. :-)

  56. J.... ....

    @jalloh111 the forces of Good do not run the music industry, so don't hold your breath waiting for any artists with virtue...Christ is the Saviour

  57. d.... ....

    great voice love her

  58. s.... ....

    I love it

  59. k.... ....
