Show Up Video (MV)

Well it was early Saturday morning
I was just getting out of bed
The sun was shining bright and
I was looking forward to a nice long
Saturday of doing nothing
But my wife came over and said
"Get up sleepyhead.
We have to go to the protest today"
And I didn't want to go to the protest
It was too depressing to think about
I didn't think it was gonna do any good
I thought if I was gonna do something
It should be something more
Even though I didn't know what
But my wife said
"Never mind all that
Sometimes you just gotta show up"

You're pissed off and you wanna start a revolution
And you're wondering how you can help get it done
Well maybe there's nothing new under the sun
Don't let your ego stop you helping someone

Sometimes it's just about being a grunt
Yeah just so long as we're all at the front
We need more soldiers than we need generals
Don't let the voices stop you helping someone

Sometimes you just have to show up
Sometimes you just have to show up
Sometimes you just have to show up
Sometimes you just have to show up

Sometimes the choir means more than the voice
And sometimes to help we make that choice
We need more singers than we need soloists
So lift up your voice sing of helping someone

Sometimes you just have to show up
Sometimes you just have to show up
Sometimes you just have to show up
Sometimes you just have to show up

Sometimes it's all about showing up
Sometimes it's all about showing up

Sometimes you just have to show up
Sometimes you just have to show up
Sometimes you just have to show up
Sometimes you just have to show up

Now I know that we all wish that we could do something
About this shitshow. Something that makes a difference
We wish that we had some real power
And hey. Maybe you will think of something new
Something amazing
But in the meantime, we still have to show up
