Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Don't make me do wrong
Don't you make me do wrong
I've always been afraid of a man till you came along
[Verse 2]
Let's go
You gotta keep on keeping on
Even with the feeling that you're gonna keep losing
You gotta come back strong
Oh, oh
You gotta keep on keeping on
Even with the feeling that you're gonna keep losing
You gotta come back strong
Oh, oh
[Verse 3]
He spent most of his youth with his head down
Chubby, fugly, awkward walk and not much of a talker
He was good at setting bad examples but bad a math
Crunch time, he kept it moving like the lunch line
Working on the salad bars and fruit punch lines
His simple triplets had his English teacher's tongue-tied
As he stars pirouette for perfection
And the Darren Aronofsky Black Swan reflection
He plucked feathers from his back
And watched his bottom limbs bend forward
Towards something more he wasn't sure
He plucked feathers from his back
And watched his bottom limbs bend forward
Towards something more
Towards something more
[Verse 4]
You gotta keep on keeping on
Even with the feeling that you're gonna keep losing
You gotta come back strong
Oh, oh
You gotta keep on keeping on
Even with the feeling that you're gonna keep losing
You gotta come back strong
Oh, oh
[Verse 5]
Raised in a broken home build brick by government cheese bricks
Back and forth between parents, making us sea sick
On his knees every night praying for a little change
But the tooth-fairy was broke and offered little hope
He used to stand in front of mirrors with his toothbrush star searching
But he ain't have to search far
He was smart and made a pact with himself with a smirk
And made a vow that one day his dad would never ever have to worry
He plucked feathers from his back
And watched his bottom limbs bend forward
Towards something more he wasn't sure
He plucked feathers from his back
And watched his bottom limbs bend forward
Towards something more
Towards something more
[Verse 6]
You gotta keep on keeping on
Even with the feeling that you're gonna keep losing
You gotta come back strong
Oh, oh
You gotta keep on keeping on
Even with the feeling that you're gonna keep losing
You gotta come back strong
Oh, oh
[Verse 7]
Fast forward a few twenty-fours, little boy turned man
Makes good on his promise
Just to say we did it
Taking trips to the Bahamas
Now your boy's bank account got a few more commas
That hard work pay off, don't it?
Plus it feel good when you can say you own it
No rent, lease, loan or mortgage
That generator money, no shortage
[Verse 8]
He plucked feathers from his back
And watched his bottom limbs bend forward
Towards something more he wasn't sure
He plucked feathers from his back
And watched his bottom limbs bend forward
Towards something more
Towards something more
[Verse 9]
You gotta keep on keeping on
Even with the feeling that you're gonna keep losing
You gotta come back strong
Oh, oh
You gotta keep on keeping on
Even with the feeling that you're gonna keep losing
You gotta come back strong
Oh, oh
[Verse 10]
You gotta keep on keeping on
Even with the feeling that you're gonna keep losing
You gotta come back strong
Oh, oh
You gotta keep on keeping on
Even with the feeling that you're gonna keep losing
You gotta come back strong
Oh, oh
