no matter what they may say
when you don't conform to their ways
keep moving forward
keep moving forward
when they seem to never understand
you need to remember your greater plan
keep moving forward
keep moving forward
even though you don't yet taste sweet success
and the road doesn't feel all that blessed
keep moving forward
keep moving forward
when you wonder how much longer
and your feet, they start to falter
keep moving forward
keep moving forward
you feel exhausted without a break
you don't know how much more to take
keep moving forward
keep moving forward
a voice inside pops up like a zit
and you know, in the end, it's all worth it
keep moving forward
keep moving forward
but then you reach the top
and, really, you'd rather stop
keep moving forward
keep moving forward
keep moving forward
keep moving forward
