Lyrics
I'LL CARRY ON
Well I've been walkin' now
For so long
And the highroad is steep
But my legs are strong
I can stand my ground
I'll keep my head up high
Some folks may write me off
Based on a clever lie
CHORUS
I've got no time for judgment games
Some petty false labels or names
Some gang of bullies on their marathon
So you can buy what they sell
They try to poison my well
But time will tell
And I'LL CARRY ON
Well folks are talking now
For so long
And it's the same old tune
but they got the music wrong
They took the notes
They took the lyrics too
Shuffled 'em all around
Now they'll serve 'em up for you
CHORUS
I've got no time for judgment games
Some petty false labels or names
Some gang of bullies on their marathon
So you can buy what they say
Push the stones in my way
'Cause come what may
And I'LL CARRY ON
-------- Instrumental --------------
I wish that for one day
You knew what I know
Then you might see beyond their
Cheap vendetta show
You would see the truth
Instead of lies that circulate
Designed to keep me locked away
Behind a prison gate
CHORUS
I've got no time for judgment games
Some petty false labels or names
Some gang of bullies on their marathon
So you can buy what they sell
They try to poison my well
But time will tell
And I'LL CARRY ON
