[Verse 1]
Mmm, it's been so long
It's been so long
Since you've been 'round
Since you've been 'round
It took some heart, some soul, some time
Just to get off the ground
To get off the ground, ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
I still remember the day my father said

[Chorus]
You gotta hold your head up (Hold your head up)
You gotta hold your head up ('Cause I know you've got this)
Boy, you gotta hold your head up (Mmm)
Be proud (Be proud)
You gotta rise above (You gotta rise above)
You gotta rise above ('Cause I know you've got this)
Boy, you gotta rise above
Be proud (Be proud)

[Interlude]
Oh

[Verse 2]
I see you now
I see you now
Dark as it's been
Dark as it's been
It took some fate, some love, somе time
Just to get it togethеr again
Mmm, be together again
[Pre-Chorus]
I still remember the day my father said

[Chorus]
You gotta hold your head up (Hold your head up)
You gotta hold your head up ('Cause I know you've got this)
Boy, you gotta hold your head up (Mmm)
Be proud (Be proud)
You gotta rise above (You gotta rise above)
You gotta rise above ('Cause I know you've got this)
Boy, you gotta rise above (Oh)
Be proud (Be proud)

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
You gotta hold your head up (Hold your head up)
You gotta hold your head up ('Cause I know you've got this)
Boy, you gotta hold your head up (Yeah)
Be proud (Be proud)
You gotta rise above (You gotta rise above)
You gotta rise above ('Cause I know you've got this)
Boy, you gotta rise above (Yeah)
Be proud (Be proud)
[Outro]
Get back together
