VERSE 1: When the world looks low, baby don’t you go Talkin’ yourself down, better get up now It ain’t bad at all, just breathe and stand up tall But when we loose it all, yeah settle just to fall Trying to find that light, to bring us out withdrawal Don’t let that shadows haunt, just keep on moving on When did the air get thin? When did I let spite in? Somersault tongues searching for words within Hey, hey, hey PRE-CHORUS: I know you’re feeling lost, or that you’re at a loss To continue the everyday cycle you’re in, oh baby look within Cause in time you’ll find, the little things in life are what keep ya right Oh oh oh CHORUS: Move your body, everybody, move your body, every way Move your body, everybody, move your body, every way Move your body, everybody, move your body, every way Move your body, everybody, move your body, every way VERSE 2: Alleviate the stress, ain’t movin’ to impress Only thing hitting us now is the sound of the music so loud Do you got food, you got a place to stay? You got love, you got sunshine, no rain? If you woke up this morning then hey, you got it good so what’s there to say Is she cold is he running away? Does that green flow control everyday? Are you feeling’ that there is no way? Just get up take it day by day I ain’t saying’ it’s easy for me, I have my days oh honey believe Pity comes so easily, but the best things don’t work that out way usually PRE-CHORUS: I know you’re feeling lost, or that you’re at a loss To continue the everyday cycle you’re in, oh baby look within Cause in time you’ll find, the little things in life are what keep ya right Oh oh oh CHORUS: Move your body, everybody, move your body, every body Move your body, everybody, move your body, every way Move your body, everybody, move your body, every way Move your body, everybody, move your body, every way Move your body, everybody, move your body, every way
