Carry On Lyrics - Singles - Bran Van 3000

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 free-fall? 

I never thought that I would have 

To stay so near to keep you, dear 

How would you like to stick with me? 

And do you love to free-fall? 

I never thought that I would have 

To speak so loud for you to hear 

I need your loving 

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 

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 tap's 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, yeah yeah 

On every single part I play 

I'll be so strong 

Hell, I won't give up the fight 

Day and night 

Hell, everyday 

I'll carry on 

I'll live my life on center 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
