Carry on Lyrics

I was down on my luck, had nowhere to go

Walkin' these streets with a heart full of stone

Every door closed, every light turned dim

But I swore to myself I ain't givin' in

And the rain kept fallin', the wind got cold

But I kept on movin', wouldn't sell my soul

They tried to break me, tried to shut me down

But I ain't the kind to stay on the ground

So I carry on, no matter what they say

Ain't nobody gonna stand in my way

Through the fire, through the storm

I keep my head high and I carry on

I've seen hard times, I've walked that line

Had nights where I thought I was losin' my mind

But deep in my soul, I heard a voice

Sayin' "Get back up, you still got a choice"

And the road was heavy, the nights were long

But I kept on runnin', kept stayin' strong

They tried to break me, tried to make me fall

But I ain't built to lose it all

So I carry on, no matter what they say

Ain't nobody gonna stand in my way

Through the fire, through the storm

I keep my head high and I carry on

Oh, I know someday

All this pain gon' fade away

But 'til that time, I won't back down

Gotta keep my feet on solid ground

So I carry on, no matter what they say

Ain't nobody gonna stand in my way

Through the fire, through the storm

I keep my head high and I carry on

Ohhh, I carry on, yeah, I carry on

Ain't nobody gonna hold me down

I keep my head high, feet on the ground

And I carry on
