Finally your Day has Come

You gotta make a sacrifice
You gotta make a sacrifice

People say that you're not good enough
They try to keep you down
(way down, way down)
But they don't understand
When you're walking up a one way street
Trying to make ends meet

It's time to be counted

(Chorus)
Finally your day has come
Stand up and be someone
Finally your day has come
Stand up and be someone
(be someone, be someone)

You gotta make some plans
When your fate is in your hands
It's up to you up to you
oohoo it's up to you

Don't make excuses only you know what the truth is
I say they're never gonna keep you down

(Repeat chorus)

Don't let time and words
get in your way
for another day

(Repeat chorus x 2)
