Keep Working

Keep working and don't stop,
Keep pushing like a running back.
There's no time to stop now,
You must keep going
Until you make it out.

If you give up now
you won't make it out.
Push through the hard times and
Enjoy most of the good times.
If you want it bad enough
You will not let anything,
Nor anyone hold you back
From reaching your goal.

Keep working and don't stop,
Keep pushing like a running back.
There's no time to stop now,
You must keep going
Until you make it out.

You can still do it so long as you
Have breath in your body.
Don't stop until your dreams
become a reality.
Keep fighting until
the final bell rings
Over the speakers and
throughout the arenas.

Keep working and don't stop,
Keep pushing like a running back.
There's no time to stop now,
You must keep going
Until you make it out.
