Story Behind The Song
I had a friend/coworker who was always very lazy about making things go his way in life. He leads a stagnant life, and this song was about him needing to get up and make a difference on his own.
Song Description
This song is about never expecting to be given anything and always working hard for whatever it is you desire. You must be proactive when you want something to go your way.

Lyrics
V1:
It?s not like to world would stop for you
So what are you trying to do
It?s not like the world just spins for you
So get over yourself
And I?ve seen it all before
What you do, who you live this life for
And I?ve seen it all before
Like you think there?s so much more
Pre:
I?ll get over you
But you won?t say a word
And I?ll get over you
Because there?s
CH:
No day
Like today
Or anyday
To get up and so get up and get
On with
Your new life
So everyday
You get up and get up and get up
I?m not afraid to fall
Because there?s
No day
Like today
Or anyday
To get up so get up and get up
V2:
It?s not like the world gave up on you
You just stopped before you knew
It?s not like the world was built for you
You built it up to crash down on you
And I?ve seen it all before
Why you left, why you closed all the doors
And I?ve seen it all before
You will win some, lose some more
Pre:
I?ll get over you
But you won?t say a word
And I?ll get over you
Because there?s
CH:
No day
Like today
Or anyday
To get up and so get up and get
On with
Your new life
So everyday
You get up and get up and get up
I?m not afraid to fall
Because there?s
No day
Like today
Or anyday
To get up so get up and get up
Bridge:
You?re always
Getting over my head
Over my head
But now I?m finished with you
It?s not like world abandoned you
It just sits while you do what you do
It?s not like
Pre:
I?ll get over you
But you won?t say a word
And I?ll get over you
Because there?s
CH:
No day
Like today
Or anyday
To get up and so get up and get
On with
Your new life
So everyday
You get up and get up and get up
I?m not afraid to fall
Because there?s
No day
Like today
Or anyday
To get up so get up and get up
