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
