Keep on Singing My Song

Christina Aguilera -



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

Everytime 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



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 gonna carry on (Carry on)

I'mma keep on (keep on) singin' my song



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 was 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 fears I've held too long inside

Everytime I felt I couldn't try

All the negativity and strife



Cause too long, I've been strugglin', couldn't go on

But now I've found I'm feelin' strong and I'm moving on



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 gonna carry on, (carry on)

I'mma keep on (keep on) singin' my song



Every time I tried to be what they wanted from me

It never came naturally, so I ended up in misery

Was unable to see all the good around me

Wasted so much energy on what they thought of me

Than simply just remembering to breathe

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



In the end I answer to one God

Comes down to one love till' I get to heaven above

I have made the decision

Never to give in

Till' the I day I die no matter what

Im gonna carry on, I'mma keep on singin' my song
