Stuck in a rut you can't get out
There's too much causing you doubt
No cash no job no self esteem
Me I'm takin' and I'm giving
If you got the gift you should use it
Opportunity don't want to lose it
Climb over the walls break down all the doors
When your future calls
Don't let nothing hold you down
Nothing hold you down down
Don't let nothing hold you down
Nothing hold you down down
Just surviving and living
Just surviving and living
Just surviving and
Stuck in a rut you can't get out
There's too much causing you doubt
No cash no job no self esteem
Me I'm takin' and I'm giving
They may wreck your dreams if you let them
Keep them goals in sight don't forget them
Keep your head up high yes the future's bright
Keep your head up high
Don't let nothing hold you down
Nothing hold you down down
Don't let nothing hold you down
Nothing hold you down down
Just surviving and living
Just surviving and living
Just surviving and
Just surviving and
