Lyrics

When in the midst of sorrow
You can't see up when looking down
A brighter day tomorrow will bring
You hear the voice of reason
Telling you this can't never be done
No matter how hard reality seems
Just hold on to your dreams
Don't give up, 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
Be optimistic
If things around you crumble
No, you don't have to stumble and fall, no
Keep pushing on and don't you look back, woah
I know of storms and strive
I've been around them all my life
Just think ahead and you'll be inspired
To go higher and higher, hey
You'll always do your best if you learn to never say never (Yeah)
You maybe down, but you're not out
That's when I feel lifted, oh
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 will) You can win (You can win)
As long as you keep your head to the sky (Yeah, yeah)
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky, oh
You can win (You will win)
As long as you keep your head to the sky (Yeah)
Be optimistic
[Instrumental]
Be optimistic
Hey, oh, be optimistic
Hey, yeah, yeah (Keep your head)
Keep your head (Up), to the sky
Don't you ever give up (As long as you keep your head to the sky)
Don't you ever give up, no
Said be optimistic
Hey, yeah, yeah, as long
As long as you keep your head to the sky (As long as you keep your head to the sky)
Said be optimistic (Be optimistic, be optimistic)
Don't ever give up (Be optimistic)
Don't ever give in (Be optimistic)
Oh, be (Be optimistic)
Your head to the sky, yeah (Be optimistic)
Hey, oh (Be optimistic, be optimistic, be optimistic)
Your head to the sky, yeah (Be optimistic, be optimistic)
Be optimistic (Be optimistic)
Yeah, yeah, be (Be optimistic)
Be optimistic (Be optimistic)
As long as you keep your head to the sky (Be optimistic)
(Be optimistic) Hey, yeah (Be optimistic)
You got to be, be (Be optimistic)
Don't you ever, ever, ever give up (Be optimistic)
Don't you ever, ever, ever give up (Be optimistic)
Don't you ever, ever, ever give up (Be optimistic)
As long as you keep your head to the sky
Hey, yeah
(Give it up for Emoni)
