Keep On Singing My Song
I woke up this morning with a smile on my face
And nobody's gonna bring me down today
Been feeling like nothing's been going my way lately
But I decided right here, right now
That my outlook's gonna change
That's why I'm gonna
Say goodbye to all the tears I've cried
Every time somebody hurt my pride
Feeling like they won't let me live my life and
Take the time to look at what is mine
I see, every blessing, so clearly
And I thank God, for what, I got from above
I believe they can take anything from me, but they
Can't succeed in taking my inner peace from me
They can say all they wanna say about me, but I
I'm gonna carry on
I'ma keep on
Singing my song, yeah yeah
I never wanna dwell on the pain again, ooh no no
There's no use in reliving how I hurt back then, oh, oh no
Remembering too well the hell I felt
When I was running out of faith, oh
Every step I'm about to take
Well it's towards a better day
'Cause I'm about to
Say farewell to every single lie
And all the fears I've held too long inside
Every time I felt I couldn't try
All the negativity and strife
Cause too long, I've been, struggling, couldn't go on
But now, I've found, I'm feeling strong and I'm moving on
I believe they can take anything from me, but they
Can't succeed in taking my inner peace from me
Now they can say all they wanna say about me, but I
I'm gonna carry on
I'ma keep on
Singing my song
Every time I tried to be
What they wanted from me
It never came naturally
So I ended up in misery
Was unable to see
All the good around me
Wasting so much energy
On what they thought of me
Than simply just remembering to breathe
I've learned
I'm humanly unable to please
Everyone at the same time
So now I find, my peace of mind
Living one day at a time
In the end I answer to one God
Comes down to one love
Till I get to heaven above
I have made the decision
Never to give in
Till the day I die no matter what
I'm gonna carry on
I'ma keep on, mmm

Nice ditty. :)
Congratulations on the beginning of a new adventure.
Good stuff. If you like good music with good lyrics, check out Feist. You might like it. Not as commercial as Christina's stuff though.
What ya gonna do today with all your freetime now?
Why not start off by getting rid of word verification. Truly free your mind.
oh Kate...btw I like the story of your life and if I have time i'll tell you mine. It includes my impulsive decision one morning to leave home (east coast - maryland) and go to california. all improvised without any planning. lots of hitchhiking and zany adventures. anyway i'm always up for a little adventure and life is too short to miss anything. carpe diem baby!
Wow! I never really listened to the words to the song - it's the story of my life! Thanks for posting the lyrics, Kate! And, you go girl! About 10 years ago I left home, family and job of 10 years to move to Colorado - no home or job lined up and no guarantee I'd find one. It was just time to be in a different place - so you have my full support and my rapt attention now that I've found your blog!
