You Gotta Be lyrics

Time asks no questions, it goes on without you
Leaving you behind if you cannot stand the pace
The world it keeps on spinning, can't stop it if you tried to
The best part is danger staring you in the face

Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what your future holds
Try to keep your head up to the sky
Lovers they may cause your 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 got to 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
Read the books your daddy 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 bad
You gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you got to 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

Time asks no questions, it goes 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
The best part is danger staring you in the face

Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what your future holds
Try to keep your head up to the sky
Lovers they may cause your tears
Go ahead release your fears
Stand up, be counted, don't be ashamed to cry

You gotta be bad
You gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you got to be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay together
All I know love is will save the day

Well I know, yeah I know
Talking 'bout love, you have to light it
Talking 'bout love, It's a matter of my right
Talking 'bout love, yeah I'm ready
Talking 'bout living your life, living your life away
You're the one and only, talking 'bout you and me
I said love, I'm in love

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 got to be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay together
All I know love is will save the day

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough
You gotta stay cool, you gotta stay together
Love will save the day

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough
You gotta be cool
