Lyrics
[Intro]
Another night, late bills
Late milk, same crib
Same fear in my ribs
But I still gotta live (yeah)
[Verse 1]
I’ve been scrolling through the numbers
Red lines, due dates, threat letters in a pile
Dark thoughts sitting in the corner
Same ones been talking for a while
Clock in my head says “failure”
Every tick like “you ain’t ever gon’ be”
But there’s a crib in the bedroom
And he look up, only seeing “daddy” when it’s me
Wife got bags under her eyes
Still asks if I’m okay when I lie
Say “I’m good, I’m good, I’m fine”
But I’m breaking on the inside
Dreams of the big check, never hit send
Emails in drafts, never pressed in
Got a war in my chest and I’m winded
But the fight ain’t finished, I’m still in it (still in it)
[Chorus]
I gotta get back up for you
Even when my hands shake, my faith thin too
When the world says quit, I push on through
I’m down on the floor
But I’m reaching for the door
I gotta get back up for you
(For you, for you)
I gotta get back up for you
(For you, for you)
[Verse 2]
Some days I can’t move off the mattress
Shower feel like climbing out a grave
Phone lights up, I don’t answer
Shame got me ducking every name
But he cry, and the whole house shifts
Tiny lungs pull me out that pit
Little fingers grabbing on my fist
Like, “Dad, don’t leave me in this”
I ain’t had a model for this life
No handbook, just pressure and pride
Trying to be a man, be a husband
Be present and not run and hide
So I talk to the ceiling at night
“All this weight, can You help me hold tight?”
If I can’t be perfect, let me be trying
Let my boy see a fighter, even when I’m crying (yeah)
[Chorus]
I gotta get back up for you
Even when my hands shake, my faith thin too
When the world says quit, I push on through
I’m down on the floor
But I’m reaching for the door
I gotta get back up for you
(For you, for you)
I gotta get back up for you
(For you, for you)
[Bridge]
One breath
One step
One check at a time, I rep
One tear
One prayer
Still here, still scared
But I rise for you
I fall, still choose
To rise for you
(For you, for you)
[Chorus]
I gotta get back up for you
Even when my hands shake, my faith thin too
When the world says quit, I push on through
I’m down on the floor
But I’m reaching for the door
I gotta get back up for you
(For you, for you)
I gotta get back up for you
(For you, for you)

Style
rap, Moody East Coast rap over dusty piano and head-nod drums, sub bass under the kick. Male vocals: verses close-mic’d and confessional, slight distortion on ad-libs. Chorus explodes with a small gospel-style choir, stacked harmonies and a soaring top line. Second hook adds bigger choir and tambourine for lift, final bar ends with beat dropping out on the last word for impact.
