[Verse 1]
If you call out loud
Will it get inside
Through the heart of your surrender
To your alibis
And you can say the words
Like you understand
Put the power is in believing
So give yourself a chance
Because you can
Climb the highest mountain
Swim the deepest sea, he
All you need is the will to want it
And uh, little self-esteem
[Chorus]
So keep the faith
Do not let nobody turn you around
You got to know when it is good to go
To get your dreams up off the ground
Keep the faith, baby, yea
Because it is just
A matter of time
Before your confidence will win out
Believe in yourself
No matter what it is going to take
You can be a winner
But you got to keep the faith
Going keep it brother
You got it
[Verse 2]
And when you think of trust
Does it lead you home
To a place that you only dream of
When you are all alone
And you can go by feel
Instead of circumstance
Put the power is in believing
So give yourself a chance
I know that you can
Sail across the water
Float across the sky, high
Any road that you take
Will get you there
If you only try
[Chorus]
So keep the faith, oh
Don't let nobody take you down, brother
Just keep your eyes on the prize
And your feet flat on the ground
Keep the faith, baby, yea
Because it is just a matter of time
Before your confidence will win out
I told my brother how to do the thing right
Lift up your head and show the world you got pride
Go for what you want
Do not let them get in your way
You can be a winner
But you got to keep the faith
Going keep it brother
You got it
[Bridge]
I know that keeping the faith
Means never giving up on love
Put the power that love has to make it right
Makes it makes it right
[Chorus]
Keep the faith
Do not let nobody turn you around brother
You got to know when it is good to go
To get your dreams up off the ground
Keep the faith baby, yeah
Because it is just a matter of time
Before your confidence will win out
[Verse 3]
Better stand up and act like you want to do right
Don't play the fool for the rest of your life
Work on it brother and you will make it someday
Go for what you want
And do not forget the faith
Look at yourself
And what you doing right now
Stand back a minute
Just to check yourself out
Straighten out your life
And how you are living each day
Get yourself together
Because you got to keep the faith
Do not let nobody take you down, brother
Just keep your eyes on the prize
And your feet flat on the ground
Keep the faith, baby, yea
Because it's just a matter of time
Before your confidence will win out
Lift up your mind
Before your mind gets blown
Some things in life
You best just leave them alone
Go for what you want
Don't let it get in your way
You can make it happen
But you got to keep the faith
[Bridge]
Gone keep it brother
You got to keep the faith
Yeah keep the faith
Gone keep it sister
You got to keep the faith
Now, now
[Verse 4]
I told my brother
How to do the thing right
Lift up your head
And show the world you got pride
Go for what you want
Do not let them get in your way
You can be a winner
If you keep the faith
Straighten out yourself
And get your mind on track
Dust off your bu*t
And get your self-respect back
You know me long enough
To know that i don't play
Take it like you want it
But you got to keep the faith gon'
[Chorus]
Don't let nobody take you down
Just keep your eyes on the prize
And get your feet back on the ground
Keep the faith, baby, yea
Because it is just a matter of time
Before your confidence will win out
But till that day i said you have got to keep the faith!
