Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's gon' all work out, sooner than later
You don't have to worry 'bout tomorrow
It's gon' work out in your favor
Just keep your head up to the sky
Keep your eyes on the prize
Just keep your head to the sky
Keep your eyes on the prize
[Verse 2]
Man, I'm insecure and I'm so unsure
My motives don't be the purest either
My little sister probably need me
I ain't been around and I ain't try to lead her, ah
Help me, Lord, I ain't never had no daddy
Feel like a failing father trying to raise my family
[Verse 3]
I seen cancer take my lady's pops and he fall so hard
And we cried so hard but sometimes life's so dark
But he told me, boy, you keep your head up
Never let up and never give up
And don't cry for me 'cause I'ma live up in the sky
[Verse 4]
Let it all work out, that pain gon' make you stronger
That hurt gonna make you a leader
Don't let that make you a monster
In the middle of the dark heart it's heartless, tarnished, carnage
The master artist makes your mess a masterpiece regardless
[Verse 5]
It's gon' all work out, sooner than later
You don't have to worry 'bout tomorrow
It's gon' work out in your favor
Just keep your head up to the sky
Keep your eyes on the prize
Just keep your head up to the sky
Keep your eyes on the prize
[Verse 6]
Yeah, I seen pretty girls feel so ugly that they hate living
I seen rich men have everything but have no friends
I seen baby mama's put restraining orders on good fathers
I seen single mothers work three jobs while they still in college
[Verse 7]
Eight years getting two degrees, slaved away for a Bachelor's
Then eight more paying huge fees, still a slave to her Master's
Feeling a way, making a minimum wage, put at the end of day
Feeling so grateful, bills still paid so, no room to complain
[Verse 8]
We all got deep wounds, ugly scars, black marks
Just left rehab, still got track marks
Let it all work out, and let the light shine through
'Cause you can't be them and they can't be you
[Verse 9]
It's gon' all work out, sooner than later
You don't have to worry 'bout tomorrow
It's gon' work out in your favor
Just keep your head up to the sky
Keep your eyes on the prize
Just keep your head up to the sky
Keep your eyes on the prize
