Mind on the Prize

[Verse 1]
I been fighting all my life
That's why
I've got the strength that's in me
Reaching for high peaks
In the belly of valley
It's a heavy load
Walking solo
Up the mountain
I fell so many times that I stopped counting
It's a steady climb but pick your self up and keep moving can't no body tell you who to be
And what to do
And if you listen real close
To that little voice inside
Let the rhythm in your heart
Be your guide
It don't matter what the people say
Keep the faith
Turn a blind eye
Hold your head high
And keep your mind on the prize

[Chorus]
Keep your mind on the prize
Keep your mind on thе prize
Keep your mind on the prize
Keep your mind on thе prize
Keep your mind on the prize
Keep your mind on the prize

[Verse 2]
This music game is tricky
We all know
How this business can get sticky
Anybody with a dream
Can take a swing
But most are quickies
But I'm lifer
I eat sleep
Breath bleed hunger
And I won't stop 'til they put me under
Hand to my mama
I'm married to the music
That's a promise
Finger up to the drama
I was born with a vision
It's all just a matter of time
Focus set, up ahead
And my mind on the prize

[Chorus]
Keep your mind on the prize
Keep your mind on the prize
Keep your mind on the prize
Keep your mind on the prize
Keep your mind on the prize
Keep your mind on the prize

[Outro]
Keep your mind on the prize
Keep your mind on the prize
Keep your mind
