Lyrics

[Intro] One, two, three, four [Verse 1] In the ghetto, just the other day I heard a mother turn to her son and say "Remember where you're going, remember who you are There's no end to accomplishment, no distance is too far [Pre-Chorus] But you gotta get on up (Get on up, push a little harder) Educate your mind, get a little smarter (Get a little smarter) [Chorus] 'Cause there's room (Room) at the top (At the top) It's only the bottom that's crowded out (It's crowded out) I said there's room (Room) way up at the top (At the top) Just keep on climbing (Ooh), don't you stop (Don't you stop) [Verse 2] Times may be hard, the road may be narrow But there's nothin' you can't do with your eye on the sparrow So take the time that you spend on cryin' And use the same time and spend it on tryin' [Pre-Chorus] (Got a problem?) What problem? (It's only in your mind) There's a light (Bright light), only you can make it shine [Chorus] 'Cause there's room (Room) at the top (At the top) It's only the bottom that's crowded out (It's crowded out) I said there's room (Room), hey, at the top, y'all (At the top) Just keep on climbing (Ooh), oh, don't you stop (Don't you stop) [Pre-Chorus] You just gotta, get on up (Push a little harder) Educate your mind, get a little smarter (Get a little smarter) [Chorus] 'Cause there's room (Room) at the top (At the top) It's only the bottom that's crowded out (Way up at the top) I said there's room (Room) at the top (At the top) Just keep on climbing (Ooh), don't you stop (It's crowded out), oh Don't drop your head, sit and talk about it Educate your mind, climb out of it, woah There's (Ooh), I wanna talk about it (Ooh) I wanna talk about it (Ooh) Maybe (Ooh) it's all up to you (Ooh) Nobody else (Ooh) can make your dreams come true (Ooh) You gotta help yourself (Ooh), you gotta help yourself (Ooh) You gotta keep on trying (Ooh), you gotta keep on climbing, climbing, climbing Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh [Verse 3] Children of today, leaders of tomorrow Won't you decide between happiness or sorrow?
