[Verse 1]
Right now everything sucks
I can't express the things I want
I got to play in this game
And you know how dumb the house rules are
Someday I'm gonna break out of here
And I will find what is true in my soul (I won't let go)
I work my skin to the bone because I'm not gonna give up
I'm not gonna give up!

[Chorus]
I've got to get me some
I've got to live my life
I've got a heart that beats
And nobody else has time
They ain't gonna keep me down
Cuz I've got to reach the top
I've got to get me some
I've got to have my rock
I've got to get me some now baby

[Verse 2]
I'll pose in the magazine
I'll be on the satellite TV
In Detroit Metal City
With 10,000 people just like me
They'll all be singing along
And the girls will show me their love (high up above)
I ain't never coming back
I be out with my brothers
I'm out with my brothers!
[Chorus]
I've got to get me some
I've got to live my life
I've got a heart that beats
And nobody else has time
They ain't gonna keep me down
Cuz I've got to reach the top
I've got to get me some
I've got to have my rock
I've got to get me some now baby
I've got to get me some now baby

[Chorus]
I've got to get me some
I've got to live my life
I've got a heart that beats
And nobody else has time
They ain't gonna keep me down
Cuz I've got to reach the top
I've got to get me some
I've got to have my rock
