Lyrics
VERSE I
Would I be forgiven if I were to confess my sins
The door revolves and makes me wonder if I?ve been let in
Euphemism and rhetoric seem to colorize
The transformation into to something you don?t recognize
But I know it?s not over ?til somebody gives
It?s not over that is not the way it is
It?s not over after this one life we live
CHORUS
Keep your eyes on the prize and your head in the clouds
And your feet on the ground and love all around you
Keep your eyes on the prize and your head in the clouds
And your feet on the ground and love all around you - yeah
Let?s get to livin? - yeah
Let?s get to livin? - yeah
Let?s get to livin? again
VERSE II
Feel free to rock the boat if you think it?s appropriate
Don?t eat the sour grapes if you are craving chocolate
A metaphor can taint your version of philosophy
Or verify interpretations of reality
But I know it?s not over until the victory dance
It?s not over there?s no evidence
It?s not over after pomp and circumstance
CHORUS
Keep your eyes on the prize and your head in the clouds
And your feet on the ground and love all around you
Keep your eyes on the prize and your head in the clouds
And your feet on the ground and love all around you - yeah
BRIDGE
The image doesn?t match my photographic memory
For that it is chastised and reprimanded silently...
But I know it?s not over ?til somebody cries
It?s not over it?s just been simplified
It?s not over we?ve just over analyzed it
Outro
It?s not over we?ve just over analyzed it and ourseleves
And our jobs and our loved ones and our stature
And our progress and our paychecks
And our madness and our mistakes
And our mischief and our borders
And our leaders and our orders
And our wisdom and our teachings
And our ranking and our reachings
And our footing and our folding
And our givings and our holdings
And our dreaming and our dreaming and our dreaming
Let's get to livin' - yeah
Let's get to livin' - yeah
Let's get to livin'
Let's get to livin' again
