[Verse 1]
The blackness
Keep, keep on
Never say die
Keep, keep on
[Verse 2]
Blackness
Keep, keep on
Never say die
Keep, keep on
Keep, keep on
[Verse 3]
The blackness
Never say die
Keep, keep, keep
Never say die
Keep, keep on
[Verse 4]
Never say die
The blackness
Keep, keep on
Never say die
Optimistic
[Verse 5]
When in the midst of sorrow
You can't see up, when lookin' down
A brighter day, tomorrow will bring, oh (Optimistic)
You hear the voice of reason
Telling you, this can never be done
No matter how hard reality seems
Just hold on to your dreams, yeah
[Verse 6]
Don't give up, and don't give in, although it seems you never win
You will always pass the test, as long as you keep your head to the sky
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky (Yeah)
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky
Be optimistic
[Verse 7]
If things around you crumble
No, you don't have to stumble and fall
Keep pushing on, and don't you look back, oh (Optimistic)
I know of storms and strife
Out of your album of life
Just think ahead, and you'll be inspired
To reach higher and higher
[Verse 8]
You'll always do your best if you learn to never say never
You may be down, but you're not out
That's when I felt lifted, ooh
[Verse 9]
Don't give up, and don't give in, although it seems you never win
You will always pass the test, as long as you keep your head to the sky
(Your head to the sky)
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky (Keep, keep, keep)
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky
(You can win, keep your head faced towards the sky)
Be optimistic
[Verse 10]
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky
Be optimistic
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky
Be optimistic
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky
Be optimistic
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky
Be optimistic
[Verse 11]
You can win, yes (Never say die)
Yeah (You, you, you can, you, you, you) (Never say die)
Keep your head
[Verse 12]
You, you, you can, you can win as long as you keep your head to the sky (Be optimistic)
Be optimistic
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky
Be optimistic
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky
Be optimistic...
