I gave you my heart
I gave you my soul
I gave everything that I had
but you left me in the cold
but still I have faith
somehow I believe
that if I keep love in my heart
it will find its way to me
I could fight
seek revenge
but thats not who I am
No i'm not giving in
I will rise above
Chorus:
Im gonna keep walking though it may seem far
Im gunna keep preaching when life gets too hard
not gunna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road
Im gunna keep climbing 'till I see the top
Im gunna keep trying though I may get lost
not gunna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road
Im gunna get by on the high road (X2)
This pain that I feel
I will overcome
I know somewhere deep down inside
its the pain that makes us strong
I could curse
I could shout
take the easy way out
I forgive you some how
I will rise above
Chorus:
Im gonna keep walking though it may seem far
Im gunna keep preaching when life gets too hard
not gunna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road
Im gunna keep climbing 'till I see the top
Im gunna keep trying though I may get lost
not gunna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road
I'll get by
Oh I know I'll get by
to be real [to be real]
i can't keep it inside [though I cant keep it inside]
I may hurt sometimes
But i will survive
Im gunna keep reaching
Im gunna keep climbing
[Say it with me now]
Im gunna keep trying
yeahh OOhhh
Im gonna keep walking though it may seem far
Im gunna keep preaching when life gets too hard
not gunna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road
I'm gonna get by on the high road
i'm gonna get down on the high road
i'm' gonna be fine on the high road
oOoOoO
i'm gonna get by on the high road
i'm gonna get by on the high road
i'm gonna be fine on the high road
I gave you my soul
I gave everything that I had
but you left me in the cold
but still I have faith
somehow I believe
that if I keep love in my heart
it will find its way to me
seek revenge
but thats not who I am
No i'm not giving in
I will rise above
Im gonna keep walking though it may seem far
Im gunna keep preaching when life gets too hard
not gunna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road
Im gunna keep trying though I may get lost
not gunna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road
I will overcome
I know somewhere deep down inside
its the pain that makes us strong
I could shout
take the easy way out
I forgive you some how
I will rise above
Im gonna keep walking though it may seem far
Im gunna keep preaching when life gets too hard
not gunna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road
Im gunna keep trying though I may get lost
not gunna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road
to be real [to be real]
i can't keep it inside [though I cant keep it inside]
I may hurt sometimes

i'm gonna be fine on the high road

^fuck this comment above me...

sorry wrong song
The people who posted before me are fags;;
Love this song, and it's about not letting haters get you down. And no matter how much you say about me, I'm gonna keep my head up and keep moving foward and I wont sink to your level and try to get you back. Because I'm a bigger person and I'm going to make it to the top while you're busy pushing people down.
Thank you to the comment above me. You thankfully have sense. I agree completely. This song is about not letting negativity rub off on you OR your aspirations. It could be a jealous hater or a person you thought loved and cared about you but betrayed you. It is about keepin' your head up high through it all and coming out on top. BASICALLY, IT IS SAYING TO HATERS: YOU ON YOUR JOB, YOU HATIN' HARD. AIN'T GONNA FEED YA I'MA LET YA STARVE."
