Song by Des'ree, one of Britain's most successful pop/soul vocalists throughout the 1990s. ''You Gotta Be'' was released in 1994. It reached #20 UK, #5 US.
For me, it's a song of courage. You gotta be bad. You gotta be bold. You gotta be wiser. You gotta be hard. You gotta be tough. You gotta be stronger. You gotta be cool. You gotta be calm .You gotta stick together... Moved me and powered me everytime! Sometimes you would feel LIFE SUCKS. Well, that is the way it is. No one got a perfect life. Even Paris Hilton's life sucks. She got fame, money, seems everything. But she just can't live it right and gets fulfillment from it.
You have to try to accept how life goes. Catch moments of pleasure. Always feel appreciated and satisfied from life, even just a tiny little one.
Dedicated this song to my friends who have suffered from some uncomfortable events recently. Hope you can go through it with a strong mind.
Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try to keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead, release your fears
Stand up and be counted. Don't be ashamed to cry
Herald what your mother said
Read the books your father read
Try to solve the puzzles in your own sweet time
Some may have more cash than you
Others take a different view
Time asks no questions
It goes on without you
Leaving you behind if you can't stand the pace
The world keeps on spinning
Can't stop it if you try to
The best part is danger staring you in the face
Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try to keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead, release your fears
You gotta be
You gotta be bad
You gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard
You gotta be tough
You gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool
You gotta be calm
You gotta stick together
All I know all I know love will save the day
