Lyrics

Keep An Even Keel

(Verse 1)
See a man's like steel forged in fire
But loses his strength when the temper's higher
And a woman is clay soft to the hand
But she loses her shape under heavy demand
(Pre-Chorus)
The winds will howl, the rain's gonna pour
Life's gonna wash you up on the shore
But you got to find focus, find your soul
'Fore the weight of the world takes all control
(Chorus)
You gotta keep... keep keeping on
Keep an even keel and just sail on
A hurricane wind like a spinning wheel
A hurricane wind like a spinning wheel
Stand your ground, child... and keep
Keep an even keel
(Verse 2)
Now the world's gonna throw some stones your way
You can throw 'em back or get out the way
In the game of life you gotta go all-in
Don't let the outside noise get under your skin
(Pre-Chorus)
There ain't no guarantees, you just gotta trust
Keep your eyes on the prize, don't grind down to dust
But you got to find focus, find your soul
'Fore the weight of the world takes all control
(Chorus)
You gotta keep... keep, keeping on
Keep an even keel and just sail on
A hurricane wind like a spinning wheel
A hurricane wind like a spinning wheel
Stand your ground, child... and keep
Keep an even keel
(Bridge)
It's a long way home on a restless sea
Between who you are and who you're meant to be
You can turn the tide, but you can't stop the rain
You just got to learn... to embrace the pain
(Final Chorus)
You gotta keep... keep, keeping on
Keep an even keel and just sail on
A hurricane wind like a spinning wheel
A hurricane wind like a spinning wheel
Stand your ground, child... and keep
Keep an even keel
(Outro)
Eyes on the prize... Keep your eyes on the prize and sail on
Yeah, just sail on
