lyrics

Some things in life are gonna knock you off your feet
Some things will taste more of the bitter than the sweet
But you gotta keep on moving
You gotta keep on moving
Or you'll drown.

Some things in life are gonna spit upon your grave
And some things take all your freedom making you a slave
But you gotta keep on moving
You gotta keep on moving
Or you'll drown

Keep your head up, above the water
Keep your head up above the water
Keep your head up above the water
Or you'll die

Some things in life are gonna kick you to the curb
And all you'll wanna do is curl up in a hole under the earth
But you gotta keep on moving
You gotta keep on moving
Or you'll drown

Sometimes this life will try it's best to undermine you
And you'll want to throw the towel in, throw the game and just let hell win
But you gotta keep on moving
You gotta keep on moving
Or you'll drown

Keep your head up, above the water
Keep your head up, above the water
Keep your head up, above the water
Or you'll die

All this life is for is seeing if we've got the stuff it takes
To rise above the hatred and the sinners and the saints
And we can take all we've been given
Of the blessings and the curses
We can hold our own and see all that this life
Has got in store if we just

Keep our heads above the water
Keep our heads above the water
Keep our heads above the water
