(C. Walt Disney Music Company)
Gotta get up, got, got
Gotta get up, gotta be the real deal
Gotta talk the real
Got, got, gotta get up
Gotta talk the real talk
Gotta get up
When you call me on the phone
The conversation goes so sweet, yeah
And you're the perfect gentleman
Every chance we get to meet, yeah
But when you're hangin' with the boys
Suddenly I'm just a toy
And you forget to pay attention to me, yeah
You think you gotta keep a front
But is that what you really want
What happened to your sincerity?
CHORUS
Gotta talk the real talk
Gotta let the loving show
Every day
(Gotta get up, gotta be the real deal)
Gotta make the real shake
Never let the feelings go
Every way
(Gotta get up, ooh)
Tell me, boy, what's up with you?
Should I trust ya when we're apart?
Show a little honesty
If you want to win my heart, yeah
You see, life's first lesson that we're taught
Is to appreciate the things you've got
Respect the love I'm feeling for you (for you)
Be truthful what you speak about
Your character should leave no doubt
'Cause baby, that's the right thing to do
(Chorus twice)
Rap:
Look here, I don't know what you're trying to prove
Fronting on the move, thinking you're so smooth
See me with the boys and you make much noise
You're real-loud voice penetrates my poise
Before you wreck yourself, you better check yourself
And try your best to learn how to respect yourself
I give you that much attention so why you wanna flex
You wanna play me low-key, tell me, girl, what's next?
As if it isn't enough, I take you out every Monday
Sunday's our fun day, but Friday is my day
So what ya say, it's just how it's layin'
You see, life's first lesson that we're taught
Appreciate the things you've got
Respect the love I'm feeling for you
Be truthful what you speak about
Your character should leave no doubt
'Cause baby that's the right thing to do
(Chorus repeats until fade)
