Amanda Black and Christer - pick yourself up

Pick yourself, up
I know it get, tough
Gotta keep eyes on the dream
Family believe in me
I’m a diamond in, the rough
Never givin' up, ayy
Still I thank my enemies
Always keep me on my feet

Pick yourself, up
I know it get, tough
Gotta keep eyes on the dream
Family believe in me
I’m a diamond in, the rough
Never givin' up, ayy
Still I thank my enemies
Always keep me on my feet yeah

Pick yourself up don’t give up babe, ayy
I know it’s hard, feel like you gonna die
Don’t count yourself out babe, ayy

All thе doubts in your head
Make yourself go crazy
Nothing goin' your way, wеnza ngathi you’re okay
Awukaqedi, wondering what you gon’ do
Awusizeki, in your heart you feelin’ like
You ain’t makin' progress
You ain’t makin' progress
Progress

You ain’t movin' forward
You ain’t movin' for
For

Pick yourself, up
I know it get, tough
Gotta keep eyes on the dream
Family believe in me
I’m a diamond in, the rough
Never givin' up, ayy
Still I thank my enemies
Always keep me on my feet

Pick yourself, up
I know it get, tough
Gotta keep eyes on the dream
Family believe in me
I’m a diamond in, the rough
Never givin' up, ayy
Still I thank my enemies
Always keep me on my feet yeah

Mithandazo yethu ingathi ayivakali
Indlela igcwele ameva, ukufa kugcwele ilali
Bazokubamb’inkunzi befunana nemali
Mhlaba uzok’limaza ngeke ungakhali

Bulel' umphefulo, but it just ain’t fair
Khathel’ubuhlungu, it just don’t feel right
Kumnyama kuqhuma uthuli
Iminyango kutheni ingavuli?

Ey, You ain’t makin' progress
You ain’t makin' progress
Progress

You ain’t movin' forward
You ain’t movin' for
For

Pick yourself, up
I know it get, tough
Gotta keep eyes on the dream
Family believe in me
I’m a diamond in, the rough
Never givin' up, ayy
Still I thank my enemies
Always keep me on my feet

Pick yourself, up
I know it get, tough
Gotta keep eyes on the dream
Family believe in me
I’m a diamond in, the rough
Never givin' up, ayy
Still I thank my enemies
Always keep me on my feet yeah
