Carry On
Well In every single generation
We have been told it can't be done
But you know it ain't no vacation
Just because you have seen the sun
I started every conversation
With positivity and glee
But then I had the revelation
That many of us are not free, no
The road is long, but we carry on (till we dropping)
We sing our song, cuz we very strong (never stopping)
We know that Babylon is searching for the bottom line
But dollar signs will blind us, man now listen
I feel the strength of my ancestors
They had to move off of their land
I know the spirits they have blessed us
Even though the system has its plan
Y'all know what the system is
What they don't, though: we been listening
Whatcha know bout the world we been livin in?
All a greed and corruption, it's sickening
But people we can rise so high above it all
If we stay creative and do what we love
Doesn't matter if it's winter, summer, spring or fall
If we can truly come together, that's enough
The road is long, but we carry on (till we dropping)
We sing our song, cuz we very strong (never stopping)
We know that Babylon is searching for the bottom line
But dollar signs will blind us, man now listen
I feel the strength of my ancestors
They had to move off of their land
I know the spirits they have blessed us
Even though the system has its plan
Even though the system has its plan
Even though the system has its plan
We have been told it can't be done
But you know it ain't no vacation
Just because you have seen the sun
I started every conversation
With positivity and glee
But then I had the revelation
That many of us are not free, no
The road is long, but we carry on (till we dropping)
We sing our song, cuz we very strong (never stopping)
We know that Babylon is searching for the bottom line
But dollar signs will blind us, man now listen
I feel the strength of my ancestors
They had to move off of their land
I know the spirits they have blessed us
Even though the system has its plan
Y'all know what the system is
What they don't, though: we been listening
Whatcha know bout the world we been livin in?
All a greed and corruption, it's sickening
But people we can rise so high above it all
If we stay creative and do what we love
Doesn't matter if it's winter, summer, spring or fall
If we can truly come together, that's enough
The road is long, but we carry on (till we dropping)
We sing our song, cuz we very strong (never stopping)
We know that Babylon is searching for the bottom line
But dollar signs will blind us, man now listen
I feel the strength of my ancestors
They had to move off of their land
I know the spirits they have blessed us
Even though the system has its plan
Even though the system has its plan
Even though the system has its plan
