No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience Needed (Album Version)

Step out in the night when you get lonely
Listen for the sounds city ears don't hear
I know your cross is getting heavier with every step, every step
But I know a man who walked miles for you

Stop, stay where you are
Take a look at yourself
Take a good look at yourself
Can't tell your mama
'Cause she'd only tell you she told you so
That some of us are still learning
That the real trick to life we all know

The light flashed today at the dawning
Daytime, nighttime, we still don't see
Why must we wait until morning
To wake up and be, wake up and be
Wake up and be, wake up and be
Wake up and be

Now you and I both know there's no such thing as up and down
And even when your problems got you going round and round
Gotta talk like a man to Papa
'Cause he don't understand that other stuff
Since we're part of this cross he's carrying
Our end has been dragging long enough, yeah

Mmm, yeah
Alright, alright, alright
Alright now
Pick it up, pick it up
Alright now
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, yeah, yeah

Ooh, yeah
Pick it up, pick it up
Pick it up, pick it up
Hey, hey, yeah, yeah
Pick it up, pick it up
Ooh, yeah
