Ooooh-ooohh
hey-yeeeah
You got to keep on keepin on
You got to keep your head up high
You gotta work with what you`ve got
And someday you will flyyyyy
[VERSE 1:]
Poor kids pouring cold water in their cereal
Second hand clothes
Surviving is pivotal
Praying to God at night
That things`ll get better soon
I remember when I was in your position
Tried to tell people my story
But no one would really listen
I know times are hard right now
Happiness is hard to find right now
[CHORUS:]
You got to keep on keepin on
You got to keep your head up high
You gotta work with what you`ve got
And someday you will flyyyyy
You got to keep on keepin on
You got to keep your head up high
You gotta work with what you`ve got
And someday you will flyyyyy
[VERSE 2:]
Lookin out the window to a rose grows in concrete
Dreamin` of the day when you`ll be standing on your own feet
Hard to find the good in such a scene so bad (so so sad)
Seein other kids with their Tims on
Fresh with Air Ones, wish I had one
Longin` for a day when you get your chance to shine
Don`t worry, there`ll come a tiiiiiiime
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE:]
Young girl sittin` on the steps of her duplex (mmmm)
Why did God choose to make my life so complex
Breathing to the beat of a slow, sad drum
Trouble is her only source of fun
I can almost guarantee you
It`ll get better soooooon
[CHORUS]
