Remember how you used to say,
|
You couldn¡¯t wait till tomorrow for a brand new day and,
|
No fuss when you had to ride the bus.
|
You just add a little blush,
|
To paralyze your school crush.
|
|
Now your older and the weight is on your shoulder,
|
Makes the world a little colder.
|
No more hiding in the old day,
|
Be strong,
|
Don¡¯t you give up hope.
|
It will get hard,
|
Life¡¯s like a jump rope.
|
|
Up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, yeah,
|
¡®Cause it will get hard.
|
Remember, life¡¯s like a jump rope.
|
Up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, yeah.
|
It will get hard, ¡®cause it will get hard.
|
|
There¡¯ll be a bump, there will be a bruise.
|
There¡¯ll be alarms, and there will be a snooze.
|
There¡¯ll be a path that you will have to choose.
|
There¡¯ll be a win, and there will be a lose.
|
|
And you gotta hold your head up high and
|
Watch all the negative go by.
|
Don¡¯t ever be ashamed to cry.
|
You go ahead,
|
¡¯Cause life¡¯s like a jump rope.
|
|
Up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, yeah.
|
It will get hard,
|
Remember, life¡¯s like a jump rope.
|
Up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, yeah.
|
It will get hard, come on.
|
|
I want to tell you that everything will be okay,
|
That everything will eventually turn itself to gold.
|
So keep pushing through it all
|
Don¡¯t follow, lead the way,
|
Don¡¯t lose yourself or your hope.
|
¡¯Cause life¡¯s like a jump rope.
|
|
Up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, yeah.
|
|
You stomp your feet so hard you make it pound.
|
Raise it back up to the top,
|
Now we¡¯re never coming down.
|
Up, down, stomp your feet, spin around,
|
Clap your hands to the rhythm and you slip down.
|
|
Stomp your feet so hard you make it pound.
|
Raise it back up to the top,
|
Now we¡¯re never coming down.
|
|
Up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, yeah.
|
It will get hard,
|
Remember, life¡¯s like a jump rope.
|
Up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, yeah.
|
It will get hard, ¡®cause it will get hard.
|
|
Life¡¯s like a jump rope,
|
Up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, yeah.
|
¡®Cause life¡¯s like a jump rope.
