Keep On Singin' My Song
 
Music and lyrics by Christina Aguilera and Scott Storch
 
 
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
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 every time somebody hurt my pride
Feelin' like they won't let me live life, and take a time to look at what is mine
I see every lesson so clearly and I thank God for what I got from above

  Chorus
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
I'm gonna carry on
I'm gonna keep on singin' my song

I never wanna dwelt 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 these fears I've held too long inside
Every time 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 feeling strong and I'm moving on

  Chrous

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
Wasting so much energy on what they thought of me
That simply just rememberin' to breathe, I've learned
I'm humanly unable to please everyone at the same time
So now I find my peace of mind livin' 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 day I die no matter what
I'm gonna carry on, I'm gonna keep singin' my song

I believe they can take anything from me
But they can't succeed in taking my inner peace from me
They can do what they wanna
Say what they wanna say
(They can say what they wanna)
But I'm gonna keep on
I believe that they can take from me
But they can't take my inner peace
Say what they wanna say
I am gonna sing my song
