For Keeps
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Why you sat ‘round upset, looking all lazy?
I’ve been there too, but I never let it phase me
I told my father I'm making a million
He didn’t believe me, never doubt your children
You need loving, ooh, best believe me
Rise above this, why can’t you see clear?
Until you find, don’t lose your mind
You can’t move forward, stuck in rewind
You’ll discover, grow, love and live
You know that you can do this
Scared to shoot ‘cause you might miss
Didn’t know your touch was Midas
It’s all yours
Everything you want’s for keeps
Anything you wanna be
Don’t fall short
You’re closer than you’ve ever been
Higher than you’ve ever seen
So you made a bag, now stack another
Live and repeat, give a couple to your mother
Stay with it and stunt undercover
I hate a show-off, more time a bluffer
True say, you wanna fly overseas
The world’s a big place, it’s closer than it seems
Believe me
It ain’t easy
You need loving, ooh, best believe me
Rise above this, why can’t you see clear?
Until you find, don’t lose your mind
You can’t move forward, stuck in rewind
You’ll discover, grow, love and live
You know that you can do this
Scared to shoot ‘cause you might miss
Didn’t know your touch was Midas
It’s all yours
Everything you want’s for keeps
Anything you wanna be
Don’t fall short
You’re closer than you’ve ever been
Higher than you’ve ever seen
It’s all yours (It's all yours)
Everything you want’s for keeps (Everything you want’s for keeps)
Anything you wanna be (Anything you want)
Don’t fall short (Don't fall short)
You’re closer than you’ve ever been (Closer than you've ever been)
Higher than you’ve ever seen (Higher than you’ve ever seen)
Closer than you’ve ever been
Anything you wanna be
Closer than you’ve ever been
Anything you wanna
Closer than you’ve ever been
Anything you wanna
Mmm
Closer than you’ve ever been
Closer than you’ve ever been
