Lyrics
[Intro] The Blackness Keep, keep on Never say die Keep, keep on The blackness Never say die Keep, keep on Keep, keep on The Blackness Never say die Keep, keep, keep Never say die Keep, keep on Never say die The blackness Keep, keep on Never say die Optimistic [Verse 1] When in the midst of sorrow You can't see up when looking down A brighter day tomorrow will bring You hear the voice of reason Telling you this can never be done No matter how hard reality seems Just hold on to your dreams, yeah [Pre-Chorus] Don't give up and don't give in Although it seems you never win You will always pass the test [Chorus] As long as you keep your head to the sky You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky Be optimistic [Verse 2] If things around you crumble No, you don't have to stumble and fall Keep pushing on and don't you look back I know the storms and strife Cloud up your outlook on life Just think ahead and you'll be inspired To reach higher and higher [Pre-Chorus 2] You will always do your best If you learn to never say never You may be down, but you're not out (That's what "optimistic" is all about) Don't give up and don't give in Although it seems you never win You will always pass the test [Chorus] As long as you keep your head to the sky (Head to the sky, my my my) You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky (You can win child!) You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky (keep your head looking toward the sky) You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky (You can win, keep you head, face toward the sky) Be optimistic [Outro] You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky (Some will try to knock you, but you can win) You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky (Head up, keep on lookin' now, keep on lookin' now) You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky (Don't you let nobody sink it, hey hey) You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky (No time for looking back, gotta keep just... on and on and on and on) You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky (You can win... keep your head... hey, you can have your prize!) You can win, yes Never say die Keep your head You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky Be optimistic! You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky (You gotta keep your head to the sky!) You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky Be optimistic! You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky Be optimistic! You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky (I just know that you can win if you keep your head) You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky Be optimistic! You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky [?] Uh huh... yeah!
