I woke up this morning with a smile on my face
And nobody?s gonna bring me down today
Been feeling like nothing?s been going my way lately
But I decided right here, right now, that my outlook?s gonna change
That?s why I'm gonna
Say goodbye to all the tears
I've cried every time somebody hurt my pride
Feelin? like they won't let me live life, and take the time to look at what is mine
I see every blessing so clearly and I thank God for what I got from above
CHORUS
I believe they can take anything from me
But they can't succeed in taking my inner peace from me
They can say all they wanna say about me, but I'm
I'm gonna carry on, (carry on)
Imam keep on (keep on) singin? my song
(la, la, la etc)I never wanna dwell on the pain again, there?s no use in relivin?
How I hurt back then
Rememberin? too well the hell
I felt when I wag runnin? out of faith
Every step I'm ?bout to take well it's towards a better day
Cause I'm about to
Say farewell to every single lie and all the tears
I've held too long inside
Every time I felt I couldn?t try
all the negativity and strife
Cause too long, I've been struglin', couldn't go on
But now I've found I'm feeling strong and I'm moving on
CHORUS
Every time I tried to be what they wanted from me
It never come naturally, so I ended up in misery
Was unable to see all the good around me, wasting so much energy on
What they thought of me than simply just rememberin? to breath
I've learned I'm humanly unable to please everyone at the same time
So now I find my peace of mind living one day at a time
So now I find my peace of mind living one day at a time
In the end I answer to one God, comes down to one love till get to heaven above,
I have made the decision never to give in till the day I die no matter what
I'm gonna carry on, I'mma keep on singin' my song
CHORUS (2x)
