Nikka Costa Keep Pushin
When the man's got you down ain't no love to be found
Keep pushin'
When the sky fallin' in feel like you'll never win
Keep pushin'
When you try to get ahead but you fall back instead
Keep pushin'
When the lies outweigh the truth feels like nothing you can do
Keep pushin'
I have lived among the non believers
They'll tell you that it can't be done
The fool will have you second guess the dreamer
But I'd rather be the one that tried so I'm just gonna keep on
When the world's cavin' in you can barely find a friend
Keep pushin'
When they say go away we don't need no one like you
Keep pushin'
When your hangin' by a thread dig your heels in instead
Keep pushin'
I have lived among the non believers
They'll tell you that it can't be done
The fool will have you second guess the dreamer
But I'd rather be the one that tried so I'm just gonna keep on
People wanna know why I'm so persistent
Swim against the tide, resisting the system
Don't I wanna be ridin' the charts
All she gotta do is forget about art
Shakin' their fingers but I'm holdin' steady
Goin' 'bout my business I'll wait till they're ready
Keeping my truth in whatever I do
Makin' sure the light inside of me still shines through
When the sky fallin' in feel like you'll never win
Keep pushin', keep pushin', keep pushin', keep pushin'
When you try to get ahead but you fall back instead
Keep pushin', keep pushin', keep pushin', keep pushin'
When the lies outweigh the truth feels like nothing you can do
Keep pushin', keep pushin', keep pushin', keep pushin'
When the world's cavin' in you can barely find a friend
Keep pushin', keep pushin', keep pushin', keep pushin'
And pushin', and pushin', and pushin', and pushin'
Keep pushin', keep pushin', keep pushin and pushin'
