Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
I've been knocked down so many times
I've been held up, but that's a lie
When they said I wasn't good enough (Good enough)
I held my head up high and gave 'em love
Call me basic, basic
Well, I'll take it, take it
I won't prove myself, face it
You can't put out this fire
'Cause my power is patience
And when I'm done with waitin'
I will mount up like eagles
Baby, watch me, I'll fly
Don't give up, keep that faith
Don't give up, keep that faith
You've been knocked down so many times
You've been held up, but that's a lie
When they said you weren't good enough
You held your head up high and gave 'em love
They called you basic, basic
You said, "I'll take it, take it"
Don't you prove yourself, face it
They can't put out your fire
'Cause your power is patience
And when you're done with waitin'
You will mount up like eagles
Baby, watch out, you'll fly
Don't give up, keep that faith
Don't give up, keep that faith
Child, don't give up, keep that faith
Don't you dare, don't give up, keep that faith
California livin'
You can't take my vision
I made a decision
California livin'
California livin'
You can't take my vision, no
I made a decision
What a beautiful, beautiful feeling, yeah
Don't give up, keep that faith
Don't give up, keep that faith
Don't, don't you ever give up, keep that faith
Don't give up, I've got faith
'Cause my power is patience
Power is patience
Yeah, yeah
Power, power, yeah
