[Verse 1]
She's looking for a job and a finer place to stay
She's looking for the hope in the empty promises
She's working two jobs, keeping alive
She works in a restaurant night and day
She waits her life away
She wipes her tears away
She cries inside every time she feels this way
And she's dying inside every time her baby cries
No
[Chorus]
Keeping your head up to the sky!
Keeping your mind to stay alive
Give me your wings so we can fly!
Keep your head up, tonight!
Keeping your head up to the sky
Or we can just rise up, tell me now
Give me your wings so we can fly!
[verse 2]
k**ing up the life in the birds and the trees
And we're s**ing up the air in the Earth from under me (it's never too late)
I can't even breathe (just lean on me)
I can't even see!
Keep your head up, don't give up, today!
How long can we wait?
I wish that love would come today!
All you need is love
I tell you I know it's coming soon
And all you need is just a moment, won't it do
Keep your head up!
[Chorus]
Keeping your head up to the sky!
Keeping your mind to stay alive
Give me your wings so we can fly (fly away, fly away, fly away)
Keep your head up, tonight!
Keeping your head up to the sky
Or we can just rise up, tell me now
Give me your wings so we can fly, oh, my
[Verse 3]
Everybody say that time is borrowed
And hanging down your head just aren't no good
And if you dare to rise above tomorrow
Just give yourself a chance
Fight the circumstance
Rise and do it again
[Chorus]
Keeping your head up to the sky!
Keeping your mind to stay alive
Give me your wings so we can fly
Keeping your head up to the sky
Or we can just rise up, tell me now
Give me your wings so we can fly!
[In Background]
I need your love
I need you now
I need your light right here today
I need you now
Keeping your head up to the sky!
Keeping your mind to stay alive
Give me your wings so we can fly
Keeping your head up to the sky
Or we can just rise up, tell me now
Give me your wings so we can fly!
