There's a tree in the city, it ain't lookin' pretty   Blessed with stress, smog clogging feelin' shitty   There's a river on the highway, things ain't goin' my way   Turn around, go away, come again another day      To the bed I go, stumble to and fro   I'm tired from another day of lookin' for my glow   It's hard to get up, you can say I'm fed up   But one things for certain, yo I gotta keep my head up      Keep your head up   Keep my head up   Keep your head up   Keep my head up   Keep your head up girl   Keep your head up      Keep your head up   Keep my head up   Keep your head up   Keep my head up   Keep your head up girl   Keep your head up      The sun ain't hard to see   Just turn off your TV   Everything around you   Is just part of every other thing, I'm a tree      Why you gotta do what you do   So why you gotta tell me how to be gee, make me feel like you do   I'm tried of messing around it's time to let these people know   A tree in the city, it needs somewhere to grow      River on the highway, I've never seen a grayer day   It's sad, its crappy, it needs somewhere to play   As for me, I'll sit under the tree   'Cuz there ain't no better place to be      Keep your head up   Keep my head up   Keep your head up   Keep my head up   Keep your head up girl   Keep your head up      Keep your head up   Keep my head up   Keep your head up   Keep my head up   Keep your head up girl   Keep your head up      The sun ain't hard to see   Just turn off your TV   Everything around you   Is just part of every other thing, I'm a tree      And yo   Ahat a freak   Are you all staring at me? I'm a tree   Now yo, what a freak   I'm a tree   (No you're not)   I'm a tree   (Stop lying)      Keep your head up   Keep my head up   Keep your head up   Keep my head up   Keep your head up girl   keep your head up      Keep your head up   Keep my head up   Keep your head up   Keep my head up   Keep your head up girl   keep my head up      The sun ain't hard to see   Just turn off your TV   Everything around you   Is just part of every other thing, I'm a tree      The sun ain't hard to see   Just turn off your TV   Everything around you   Is just part of every other thing, I'm a tree   I'm a tree
