Up For It

Rollins Band


I take time thinking about the moves I'm gonna have to make 
I take time thinking about the rules I'm gonna have to break 
it's always push and shoving 
sometimes it comes to nothing 
sometimes it's more than a mere mortal man can take 

I'm up for it 
I'm up for it 
I'm up for it 
I'm up for it 

the day to day can become such a trip 
the mediocre can make you lose your grip 
it's all on you and what you've got 
you can play it cool or make it hot 
I pay the price and take my shot 

stay up for it 
I'm up for it 
I'm up for it 
I'm up for it 

burning out, wearing thin 
can't believe the shape you're in 
there's always somebody who's gonna try to make it worse 
there's always a line to stand in 
as long as I'm still standing 
you best believe I'm gonna make other plans 

stay up for it 
stay up for it 
stay up for it 
up for it, up for it 
I am up for it man 

time, time, stop wasting mine, mine 
don't stand their crying, crying 
just make up your mind 
time, time, stop wasting mine, mine 
don't stand their crying, crying 
just make up your mind 

stay up for it 
stay up for it 
stay up for it 
stay up for it man 

I take time thinking about what I'm gonna have to do 
what it takes, how it is and when I'm gonna light the fuse 
all this push and shoving in the end all amounts to nothing 
I'll never get a second chance looking me in the face 

I'm up for it 
I'm up for it 
I stay up for it 
I stay up for it 

the day to day can become such a grind 
the mediocre can make you lose your mind 
it's all on you and what you've got 
you can play it cool or make it hot 
I pay the price and take my shot 

stay up for it 
I'm up for it 
I'm up for it 
I'm up for it 

? or now in future shock 
by the numbers ? ? stop 
there's always somebodys who's gonna try to take your brain 
as long as they're selling something 
I'll be smelling something 
I've seen them come and go so many times 

I'm up for it 
I stay up for it 
I stay up for it 
I stay up for it 
now what else are you gonna do?
