歌词
[Verse 1]
Oh
Hey, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah
[Verse 2]
You've got to keep on keepin' on
You've got to keep your head up high
You gotta work with what you've got
And someday you will fly
[Verse 3]
Poor kids pourin' cold water in their cereal
Secondhand clothes, survivin' is pivotal
Prayin' to God at night
That things will 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, but
[Verse 4]
You've got to keep on keepin' on
You've got to keep your head up high
(Keep your head up high)
You gotta work with what you've got
And someday you will fly
You've got to keep on keepin' on (Keep on keepin' on)
You've got to keep your head up high (Head up high)
You gotta work with what you've got (Oh, yeah)
And someday you will fly
[Verse 5]
Lookin' out the window to a rose that grows in concrete
Dreamin' of a day when you'll be standin' on your own feet
Hard to find the good in stuff that seems so bad
Seems so sad
Seein' other kids with their Tims on
Fresh with Air 1's, wish I had one
Longin' for a day when you get your chance to shine
Don't worry, there'll come a time
[Verse 6]
You've got to keep on keepin' on
You've got to keep your head up high (Oh, gotta keep your head up high)
You gotta work with what you've got (Yeah, yeah, hey, yeah)
And someday you will fly
You've got to keep on keepin' on (Keep on keepin' on)
You've got to keep your head up high
You gotta work with what you've got (What you've got and someday)
And someday you will fly
[Verse 7]
Young girl sittin' on the steps of her duplex (Duplex)
Why did God choose to make my life so complex?
Breathin' to the beat of a slow sad drum
Trouble is her only source of fun
I can almost guarantee you it'll get better soon, oh
[Verse 8]
You've got to keep on keepin' on
You've got to keep your head up high
You gotta work with what you've got (Work with what you've got)
And someday you will fly (Someday, you can fly)
You've got to keep on keepin' on
You've got to keep your head up high
You gotta work with what you've got
And someday you will fly
