Keep on is the lesson of the day
Sometimes so hard to take
The senseless games we play
To lean on these
Memories of the precious times
Well I’ve always walked the line
That’s why I’m here today

‘Cause I keep on surviving
Feelin’ the fire
For the things I believe in
Got my heels on the wire

Now the deal I see
Is to know when to be blind
To know just when to fake
And what to leave behind
‘Cause freedom
Is the most important thing
And I’d hate one day to wake
To find I’ve lost my wings

So I’ll keep on surviving
Feelin’ the fire
For the things I believe in
Got my heels on the wire

I will be true to myself
Before somebody else
I’m gonna win
I’m gonna win
Takes some time to get mine
You know I ain’t foolish baby
Won’t get left behind
Ain’t gonna loose
‘Cause I’m here to stay
