Strong Again

(album: Uncle B - 2008)

[Tulisa (Dappy):]
Ha-ha, ha-ha
(N-Dubz, N-Dubz)
Ha-ha, ha-ha
(Na, na, nai)
Ha-ha, ha-ha
(Haha)
Ha, ha

[Dappy:]
One day I had to punch up this one yute for tryna make a fool of me (Straight)
In my hood, there's only so many opportunities (What?)
Look, I carry a tool for my pride and my jewellery (Uh)
Now I find myself stuck serving the community

[Fazer:]
See me, I made a change (Yep), I didn't expect no fame
We came from practically nothing to thousands screaming our name (What?)
A-list, playlist, even my mum's famous
I would do anything for some sources of stadium status

[Tulisa:]
See the thing about life is that it's, it's just too short
Leave the past behind and only then you'll find
There's more to life than you first thought

[Dappy & Tulisa (Tulisa):]
'Cause I, I never, ever, ever, ever thought that it would ever get better
'Cause I, I never, ever, ever, ever thought that it would ever get better
See I, I never, ever, ever, ever thought that I could face this weather (No)
But life, it will only get better, trust me, it will only get better

[Tulisa (Dappy):]
Ha-ha, ha-ha
Ha-ha, ha-ha
(Na, na, nai)
Ha-ha, ha-ha
Ha, hey

[Tulisa:]
Going back to when I was young
And I treated life like it would never end
But then I grew up, got a little clued up
Then N-Dubz blew up, finally on my way

[Dappy:]
'Cause if you knew where I come from
You would understand why I sing this song
It's all changa, yeah, I put my hand up
In fact, it made me man up and finally make a change

[Tulisa:]
See the thing about life is that it's, it's just too short (It's just too short)
Leave the past behind and only then you'll find
There's more to life than you first thought

[Dappy & Tulisa (Tulisa):]
'Cause I, I never, ever, ever, ever thought that it would ever get better (Oh)
'Cause I, I never, ever, ever, ever thought that it would ever get better (Yeah)
See I, I never, ever, ever, ever thought that I could face this weather (This weather)
But life, it will only get better, trust me, it will only get better
'Cause I, I didn't ever wanna sing this song again
Didn't ever wanna sing this song again
Didn't ever wanna sing this, ever wanna sing this song again
And I, and I don't wanna walk this road again
And I don't have to be alone again
I can hold my head high, I'm strong again, I'm strong again

[Dappy:]
Money made no change, in fact, it was more pain
B's gone, who's to blame? Look at all these yutes today
Rolling 'round with .38s, sticking brothers for the white gold chains like
Look, I didn't mean to hurt you mate

[Fazer (Tulisa):]
Back in the day, I used to roll with like thirty mates
Never had clean money, always had dirty plates
Being out on the grind and watching for like thirty days (Oh)
Now we make the year's annual wage in like thirty days (Oh)

[Dappy & Tulisa (Tulisa):]
'Cause I, I never, ever, ever, ever thought that it would ever get better (I, I)
'Cause I, I never, ever, ever, ever thought that it would ever get better (Ever, yeah)
See I, I never, ever, ever, ever thought that I could face this weather (This weather)
But life, it will only get better, trust me, it will only get better
'Cause I (I), I didn't ever wanna sing this song again
Didn't ever wanna sing this song again (Sing this)
Didn't ever wanna sing this, ever wanna sing this song again (No, no)
And I, and I don't wanna walk this road again
And I don't have to be alone again
I can hold my head high, I'm strong again, I'm strong again
