When the game seems like its got you down and out
All you have to do is pick yourself up off the ground
cause life goes on
And when he calls you and your time has come to pass
It really makes no sense for you to even carry on
Tell me why youre making excuses for your life
You gotta live it... you gotta do it
It aint so hard to be the best that you can be
Lifes full of hard times, but you can make it through it
So hold on tight to your peace of mind
Let negativity flow out like the tide
Be prepared for a bumpy ride
Close the chapters in your past
Or you wont know how the story ends
[repeat chorus]
Why ya wanna try and keep me down?
Always tryin to trip on me
Misery loves company
Ive made many mistakes in my life
Take the good times with the bad
Thats the way to unlock your dreams
Your every wish can be your destiny
And you can take them further than the eye can see
It doesnt matter what they mean to me
Close the chapters in your past
Or youll never know how the story ends
[repeat chorus]
Hold you head up high
Take control of your life
Never let it pass you by
Youre bound to fail if you dont try
Its time that you get on your way
And find yourself a brighter day
And if you ask me what I think
This is what Ill say
