Mary J. Blige - Press On lyrics
rate meLife has a way of making you live it<br />
Sometime taken you be givin' it<br />
Do you fold or do you play on?<br />
The next move always depends on you<br />
<br />
If your work is good then it's trouble at home<br />
If your move is right then your dough is high<br />
It's like running an engine on no fuel<br />
How do you play in a game with no rules?<br />
<br />
It's always a fight, a constant battle in my mind<br />
No place to run, no where to hide<br />
I gotta keep moving on<br />
I gotta at least try<br />
<br />
Dealing with the pressures of everyday life<br />
Gotta go the extra mile can't just throw in the towel<br />
Do this and so amazed that<br />
The amount of things that I can tell<br />
<br />
I got troubles within, troubles without<br />
Making it through but tryin' to figure it out<br />
Tryin' to stay right when the world is wrong<br />
But I gotta keep moving and press on<br />
<br />
Gotta stay real, tryin' to be strong<br />
Taking it close but gotta hold on<br />
Tryin' to stay right when the world is so wrong<br />
But I gotta keep moving and press on, press on<br />
<br />
It's such a shame the more that you give<br />
The more that you have to wait for someone to appreciate<br />
All the moves you make<br />
All the chances you gotta take<br />
<br />
The way to get ahead is have the fear in your eyes<br />
The only way to get by<br />
Is for you never let'em see you sweat<br />
You sure better never let 'em see you cry<br />
<br />
It's always a fight, a constant battle in my mind<br />
No place to run, nowhere to hide<br />
I gotta keep moving on<br />
I gotta atleast try<br />
<br />
Dealing with the pressures of everyday life<br />
Gotta go the extra mile can't just throw in the towel<br />
Do this and so amazed that<br />
The amount of things that I can tell<br />
<br />
I got troubles within, troubles without<br />
Making it threw but tryin' to figure it out<br />
Tryin' to stay right when the world is wrong<br />
But I gotta keep moving and press on<br />
<br />
Gotta stay real, tryin' to be strong<br />
Taking it close but gotta hold on<br />
Tryin' to stay right but the world is so wrong<br />
But I gotta keep moving and press on, press on<br />
<br />
Everyday it's something new to face<br />
Every night praying that I'll survive<br />
Tryin' to deal with the pressure, every time I try to get ahead<br />
Every mistake I make they try to do me in<br />
How much more?<br />
<br />
It's always a fight, a constant battle in my mind<br />
No place to run, nowhere to hide<br />
I gotta keep moving on<br />
I gotta at least try<br />
<br />
Dealing with the pressures of everyday life<br />
Gotta go the extra mile can't just throw in the towel<br />
Do this and so amazed that<br />
The amount of things that I can tell<br />
<br />
I got troubles within, troubles without<br />
Making it threw but tryin' to figure it out<br />
Tryin' to stay right when the world is wrong<br />
But I gotta keep moving and press on<br />
<br />
Gotta stay real, tryin' to be strong<br />
Taking it close but gotta hold on<br />
Tryin' to stay right when the world is so wrong<br />
But I gotta keep moving and press on, press on<br /><br />
