Kick a Little

My daddy always was a gentleman

Never the kind who ever forced his hand

He would always be the last one to raise his voice

If anybody ever put us down

Well, you can bet that he would stand his ground

And he would tell me, "Son, sometimes, you got no choice"

You gotta kick a little and cause a stir

Sometimes, you gotta make some noise to be heard

If anybody ever tries to hold you back

Yeah, you got to kick a little and be tough

You gotta let 'em know you've had enough

Remember that, unless you wanna finish last

You gotta kick a little

Some people judge you by the way you look

They see you once and say you ain't no good

Feels like they're never gonna take you for who you are

That's when you have to stand up and be strong

And go the extra mile to prove 'em all wrong

Just remember when they push you way too far

Yeah, you got to kick a little and cause a stir

Sometimes, you gotta make some noise to be heard

If anybody ever tries to hold you back

Yeah, you gotta kick a little and be tough

You gotta let 'em know you've had enough

Remember that, unless you wanna finish last

You gotta kick a little

Yeah, you gotta kick a little and cause a stir

Sometimes, you gotta make some noise to be heard

If anybody ever tries to hold you back

Yeah, you gotta kick a little and be tough

You gotta let 'em know you've had enough

Remember that, unless you wanna finish last

You got to kick a little, yeah
