There's Room At The Top

In the ghetto, just the other day

I heard a mama turned to her son and say

Remember where you're going

Remember who you are

There's no way to accomplish it

And no distances too far

You gotta get on up (get on up)

Push a little harder

Educate your mind, get a little smarter

(Get a little smarter)

'Cause there's room (room) at the top (at the top)

It's only the bottom that's crowded out

(It's crowded out)

I said there's room way up at the top (at the top)

Just keep on climbing (room)

Don't you stop (don't you stop)

Times may be hard, the road may be narrow

But there's nothing you can do

When your eyes on the sparrow

So take the time that you've spend on crying

And use the same time and spend it on trying

(Got a problem) What problem?

(It's only in your mind)

There's a light (bright light)

Only you can make it shine

'Cause there's room (room) at the top (at the top)

It's only the bottom that's crowded out

(It's crowded out)

I said there's room (room) way at the top, y'all (at the top)

Just keep on climbing, oh

Don't you stop (don't you stop)

You just gotta

Get on up, push a little harder

Educate your mind, get a little smarter

(Get a little smarter)

'Cause there's room (room) at the top (at the top)

It's only the bottom that's crowded out

(Way up at the top)

I said there's room (room) at the top (at the top)

Just keep on climbing, ah, don't you stop

(It's crowded out)

Hey, clap your hands, sit and talk about it

Educate your mind while I'm talking

Whoa ohhh oh yeah

I wanna talk about it, I wanna talk about it, yeah

Baby, it's all up to you (room)

Nobody else can make your dreams come true

You gotta help yourself, you gotta help your yourself

You gotta keep on trying, you gotta

Keep on climbing, climbing, climbing

Ooh ooh ooh oooooh ooooh ooh ooh!

Children of today, leaders of tomorrow

Want to decide to be happy to dissolve the sorrow

(Talk to the people)

Before you turn to fight your problems

Remember the words (ohhh) from good loving mother

She say there's room at the top

There's room way up at the top

She say there's room at the top

Plenty of room at the top

You gotta keep on trying, you gotta keep on trying

Hey-ey-ey, heeeyyy!

Hey-ey-ey, heeeeeeyyyyyy, yeah!

(Room) plenty of room

(Room) what you say?

(Room) way up at the top

I said there's room (room) way at the top, y'all (room)

It's only the bottom that's crowded out

(Way up at the top)

Plenty of room (room) at the top (room)

Just keep on climbing, don't you stop

(It's crowded out)

Hey, hey, hey, yeah! (Room)

Oh yes, there is! (Room)

Keep on trying

you can make it, you can make it

'Cause there's room (room) at the top

It's only the bottom that's crowded out

I said there's room, plenty of room at the top, y'all

You gotta keep on climbing, don't you stop

Oh oh oh yeah

Oh ho oh yeah, yeah
