Getting Up Lyrics - Q-tip

Gettin up 

C'mon we gettin up 

ooh we gettin up 

ah, yeah shorty work it 

where you goin 

Sent you a message, sent you a email 

hasty decisions we made still prevail 

both needed breaks, we both needed to bail 

walkin through the corridors of my mind 

the hideaways and jokes and things were good times 

memories certainly, yes they still bind 

still a common man, oh yeah that's for sure 

still a bank roll, and yeah still couture 

but man this thing we had was much more

come back home, don't be out in the world 

it's a rat race and no place for a girl 

amongst the scavengers I found a pretty pearl 

it's for the faint of heart who never get enough 

gotta get tough buckle 'em up we call 'em guts 

and we, and we, and we, ahh 

(We gotta)Gettin up, (we gotta) Gettin up 

(today is nice, c'mon I say we) Gettin up 

I say we gettin up, I say we gettin up 

(I say we) Gettin up, (I say we) Gettin up 

(tonight is right, c'mon we gon') Gettin up 

I say we gettin up, I say we gettin up 

Come over here baby, don't look so grumpy 

this kind of lifestyle could be so comfy 

we can start a clan just like the Kennedys 

Photos 

You and I again, certainly we can expand 

feelings that should never end, 

you respect me like a friend 

but love me like your man 

no other could contend 

and we could be like those exposed to history 

like staying with each other w/truth and chivalry 

the things we go through they shape identity 

yes pretty, let's do this all night 

consummate this thing and make it all right 

and when we cuddle up I promise that I'll bite 

Chorus 

I like to watch everybody gravitate towards you 

your magneticism makes them all come through 

the same way you got them, you got me too 

now look our lives' are so colorful 

a wonderful spectrum, not one tone dull 

full of excitement and not one lull 

we had an understanding, oh yes we did 

I'm bringin it back, I'm puttin in my bid 

have a couple of kids, and have a couple of cribs 

We like Ruby Dee and Ossie, Martin and Coretta 

doin it til death, no one can do it better 

when we leave our physical, 

our spirits still together 

so c'mon now here's a placement for your hand 

you're rockin with the #1 MC man 

the #1 controller all right through the land 

Chorus
