I've got to find the right vessel, right weapon, right melody

To get my point across to make you see

That this it feels so natural to me

Why can't we all just be so free

I know it might be all I need

Just trying to get by, I'm keeping my soul up high

Just trying to get by, I'm keeping my soul up high

Just trying to get by, I'm keeping my soul up high one day at a time

Just trying to get by, I'm keeping my soul up high

Just trying to get by, I'm keeping my soul up high

Just trying to get by, I'm keeping my soul up high one day at a time

Keep it locked down with a peace of mind and you will find your way

Keep it locked down with a peace of mind and you will find your way

Keep it locked down with a peace of mind and you will find your way

Keep it locked down with a peace of mind and you

I know that sometimes all you need it's never guaranteed

But I gotta try but I gotta try

Sometimes it's hard to see what's down the line

It's always fine, even when it all falls down

I'll fake my smile and wear it as a crown

Even if I don't believe it

Inside I'll start to see it

Just trying to get by, I'm keeping my soul up high

Just trying to get by, I'm keeping my soul up high

Just trying to get by, I'm keeping my soul up high one day at a time

Just trying to get by, I'm keeping my soul up high

Just trying to get by, I'm keeping my soul up high

Just trying to get by, I'm keeping my soul up high one day at a time

Keep it locked down with a peace of mind and you will find your way

Keep it locked down with a peace of mind and you will find your way

Keep it locked down with a peace of mind and you will find your way

Keep it locked down with a peace of mind and you

Keep it locked down with a peace of mind and you will find your way

Keep it locked down with a peace of mind and you will find your way

Keep it locked down with a peace of mind and you will find your way

Keep it locked down with a peace of mind and you will find your way
