Lyrics Carry On - Bran Van 3000

Carry On

I’ve been working so
I’ve been working so
I’ve been working so hard
Why you bring me down?
Why you bring me down?
I’ve been working so hard
You’ll be smooth
I’ll be smoother
Smoother than silk
Let honesty remain my virtue
Motherin' is my milk
To push strong 'til the end
Because the stress is the life
Keep on pushin' like a player
Guess you can’t see our strife
We’re in this together cause there’s no place to run
Man’s built the gun, that’s why I’m chasing the sun
You wanna walk how you walk?
Then watch me try to stay how I stayed
I can’t be swayed by the man
I love my shorties with my heart
I’ll always lend them my hand
Teach my children about the seeds you wanna take from the sand
Gotta maintain motherfucker
Gotta stick to these plans
Cause this globalized village made it all-out war
Hip hop will be my wings
And enough men needing to soar
I see more guns than children being born everyday
Another mother’ll have to weep because you’d rob her’s away
I guess you’re never gonna figure
No man’s bigger than the next
Instead of building, you’ll be killing
Every man’s getting vexed
So carry on;
carry on
Carry on…
Maintain…
How would you like to stick with me?
How much do you love to freefall?
I never thought that I would have to stay so near to keep you dear
How would you like to stick with me?
Do you love to freefall?
I never thought that I would have to speak so loud for you to hear
I need your loving
And I try so hard
To maintain
I need your loving
And I try so hard
To maintain
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Carry on
I wanna chill for real
But I can’t seem to escape
Because your five-minute pleasures got me screaming out rape
And parliament, they keep me tied up with the fucking red tape;
Left taps on my phone
They got me thinking about fate
«Hold it, freeze,» keeps me thinking that there’s no time to wait;
And now the prison cell bars offer up heaven’s gate
But we’re like in this together
See there’s no place to run
Man’s built the gun
So we’re chasing the sun
Carry on, carry on
Day and night
Hell, everyday
I’ll carry on
On every single part I play
I’ll be so strong
Hell, I won’t give up the fight
Day and night
Everyday
I’ll carry on
I’ll live my life on centre stage
I’ll carry on, I’ll be so strong
I won’t give up the fight…
Carry on…
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Carry on, carry on, carry on
