Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I thought I could turn things around
And show you something that was new
But all I got was disappointment
I was left without a clue
[Verse 2]
But you can never change
You just keep on being you
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself
[Verse 3]
And as the world grows dark
Beneath the setting sun I think about you
And all the plans that we'd begun but never finished
Seem to turn and run
[Verse 4]
But you can never change
You just keep on being you
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself
[Verse 5]
But you can never change
You just keep on being you
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself
[Verse 6]
And as the world grows bright
Beneath the rising sun I think about you
And all the things we never did
'Cause we forgot we ever wanted to
[Verse 7]
But you can never change
You just keep on being you
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself
