Lyrics Bed Of Roses - featuring 4Hero - 4hero , Jody Watley

Job's gone, rent's due
I don't know what I'm gonna do
Baby's cryin'
Baby's daddy always lyin'
Childhood flashback
A little kid with a dream
Can this really be?
What happened to my dreams?

Life ain't always a bed of roses
You gotta get up, get up, get over it
Be strong
Life ain't always a bed of roses
You gotta get up, get up, get over it
Be strong

Single mothers
Incarcerated brothers
Loveless, hopeless
Workin' to turn it all around
Government cutbacks
War kills, you can't take it back
Families left wonderin'
What happened to our dreams?

Life ain't always a bed of roses
You gotta get up, get up, get over it
Be strong
Life ain't always a bed of roses
You gotta get up, get up, get over it
Be strong

It is said that only the strong survive
And remember how good it is to be alive
Well, around me I see pain and poverty
And it's hard to imagine that thing of
Being all that I can be, but
I visualize and I see the light that shines

Life ain't always a bed of roses
You gotta get up, get up, get over it
Be strong
Life ain't always a bed of roses
You gotta get up, get up, get over it
Be strong
Life ain't always a bed of roses
You gotta get up, get up, get over it
Be strong
Life ain't always a bed of roses
You gotta get up, get up, get over it
Be strong
Life ain't always a bed of roses
You gotta get up, get up, get over it
Be strong
Life ain't always a bed of roses
You gotta get up, get up, get over it
Be strong
