Step It Up

When I was little, they took me to school;
Tried to teach me just how to learn.
Numb you, tell you everything I done on me;
I swear, I had to earn it.
Step it up, step it up;
Step it up, step it up.

One way for you, one way for me;
Only one way forward that I can see,
That's step it up, step it up;
Step it up (step), step it up (step).

Never lie down, don't take it;
You've got some kind of fate, they'll never shake you.
All you've got to do is
Step it up, step it up;
Step it up (step), step it up.

One way for you, one way for me;
Only one way forward this boy can see.
Come on,
Step it up (step), step it up (step);
Step it up (step), step it up.

Absolute concentration,
There's nothing wrong with consideration for love.
All you do is
Step it up (step), step it up.

One day I saw my friend around a corner, around the bend;
I said, hey darling, what's the matter with you?
She said
Step it up.

Oh darling sometimes, I feel I could never ever step it up.
And I said dear friend walk in love, think about nothing but love
Just come on
Step it up (step), step it up (step);
Step it up (step), step it up (step).

One way for you, one way for me
There's only one way forward I can see
Step it up (step) step it up (step),
Step it up (step), step it up.
Step it up (step), step it up.
