Shot down - Knocked off balance
Something came from behind and kicked ya
Spun around then you hit the floor
Beat down - can’t catch a break
You’re feelin’ someone’s out to trip you up
The stress is reaching down right to the core
Oh yeah - fresh wounds
Old scabs it makes no difference
The pain is often difficult to bear
You bleed - inside
Though the people around don’t see it
Every waking moment you know it’s there


But there’s a light that shines within you
Nothing and nobody can put out
Look inside and tap it
The inexhaustible One will fill your tank so you can


Be all about that life
Get in the groove hoppin’ on the good foot like JB told ya
Nobody else but you gotta make your way you got to be
All about that life
Keep pushin’ on, a brighter day is comin’ for ya
Life and love and groove is here to stay


Get up - on your feet
Ignorance and hate won’t win the day
You’ve got something greater deep inside
Get down - get on the one
The funk and soul can motivate ya
Life force music powerin’ up this ride
Reach out - extend a hand
To your brothers and your sisters
You know it’s gonna come right back to you
Lift up - everyone
Love and light will make a difference
Shine just like a beacon of the truth


Cos’ there’s a light that shines within you
Nothing and nobody can put out
Look inside and tap it
The inexhaustible One will fill your tank so you can


Be all about that life
Get in the groove hoppin’ on the good foot like JB told ya
Nobody else but you gotta make your way you got to be
All about that life
Keep pushin’ on, a brighter day is comin’ for ya
Life and love and groove is here to stay


Rays of a new sunrise
See things with renewed eyes
Clouds parting, day is breaking
You’re free to grab that prize

<solo>

Shot down - but you get up
Turn around and face the music
Nothing gonna keep you down too long
Beat down - it’s never enough
For some of those who cannot see your path
They’ll never understand your song
Oh yeah - the path is clear
All you got to do is walk it
Love and light will always see you through
Stand tall - Towering high
Never let the bastards get you down
You know deep down just what to do


Cos’ there’s a light that shines within you
Nothing and nobody can put out
Look inside and tap it
The inexhaustible One will fill your tank so you can

Be all about that life
Get in the groove hoppin’ on the good foot like JB told ya
Nobody else but you gotta make your way you got to be
All about that life
Keep pushin’ on, a brighter day is comin’ for ya
Life and love and groove is here to stay
