Keep Pushin

Nikka Costa

When the man's 
Got ya down 
Ain't no love 
To be found 

(Keep pushin' keep pushin' 
Keep pushin' keep pushin'...) 

When the sky 
Fallin' in 
Feel like 
You'll never win 

Keep pushin' keep pushin' 
Keep pushin' keep pushin'...) 

When ya try 
To get ahead 
But ya fall 
Back instead 

Keep pushin' keep pushin' 
Keep pushin' keep pushin'...) 

When the lies 
Outweigh the truth 
Feel like nothing 
You can do 

Keep pushin' keep pushin' 
Keep pushin' keep pushin'...) 

I have lived among the non-believers 
They'll tell ya 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 gon' keep on... 

When the world's 
Cavin' in 
You can barely 
Find a friend 

Keep pushin' keep pushin' 
Keep pushin' keep pushin'...) 

When they say 
Go away 
We don't need 
No one like you 

Keep pushin' keep pushin' 
Keep pushin' keep pushin'...) 

When ya hangin' 
By a thread 
Dig your heels 
In instead 

Keep pushin' keep pushin' 
Keep pushin' keep pushin'...) 

I have lived among the non-believers 
They'll tell ya 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 gon' keep on... 

People wanna know 
Why I'm so persistent 
Swim against the tide 
Resisting the system 
Dont 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 bi'ness I'll wait till they're ready 
Keeping my truth in whatever I do 
Makin' sure the light inside of me 
Still shines thru
