Keep On Keepin' On!
The Redskins Lyrics

I ain't found what I'm looking for
I have not yet achieved what I am trying to accomplish

I ain't found what I'm looking for now
I am still searching for the thing that will bring me success

But I've found something
Although I have not yet found what I'm looking for, I have found something of value

And I'm going to change em
I will use what I have found to make a positive difference and change things for the better

Keep on keepin' on yeah
Continue to persevere and work hard

'Till the fight is won
Until the battle is won and the desired outcome is achieved

Can't remember such a bitter time
There has never been a more difficult or challenging period in my memory

The Boss says jump! The workers fall in line
The boss has complete control over the workers and can make them do whatever he wants

I'm not down, but I'm feeling low
I am not defeated, but I am experiencing a sense of discouragement

The whip us into line
The boss uses fear and intimidation to make the workers obey

With the threat of the dole
The workers are threatened with job loss if they do not comply

Time & time when the workers rise
Whenever the workers try to make a stand

The fightback's stabbed by a neat backstab
The attempt at resistance is thwarted by sneakiness and betrayal

& the papers lies
The media spreads false information and propaganda

Leaders lead us into blind retreat
Those in charge lead us into a situation where we are forced to back down with no clear path forward

One by one we take the money
Individuals are bribed or swayed with financial incentives

Ten by ten we face defeat
As more people are bought off, our ability to succeed decreases

The bosses make us pay for their crisis
Those in power force the workers to bear the burden of their own mismanagement

They blame us for daring to challenge things
The bosses condemn the workers for standing up for themselves

Keep fighting daring yeah yeah yeah
Continue to fight bravely and with determination

I ain't won what I'm fighting for
Even though I have been fighting, I have not yet achieved my goal

Full-timers backslide to the cries of sell out!
People who work full-time become disillusioned and give up the fight in order to protect their own financial interests

We've got to get the reins in our hands ourselves
We must take control of the situation and not let others dictate our fate

Stand firm! Hold tight! And fight!
Stay strong and persistent in our quest for change

The bosses, they hit
The bosses use force and coercion against us

While we're taking it
As we endure the attacks

In turns to spit
We are treated with disrespect and disdain

Divide & lose now aaarrhhhhhhhhh!
We become fragmented and disorganized, leading to failure

No point in fighting anyway (no point)
There seems to be no hope for a successful outcome

If we don't win the day (hold tight)
If we do not ultimately triumph, we must still maintain our resolve and determination

No point if we don't shoot
There is no point in fighting at all if we are not willing to take the necessary risks to succeed

The bastards afterwards
Our opponents deserve to face justice after we have won

It is better to die on our feet
It is more noble and honorable to fight for what we believe in, even if it means death or defeat

Than to live on our knees
It is better to continue living a life of struggle than to submit to those in power

If we fight as one
If we unite and fight together

Then the fight is won
We will achieve our objective if we remain united and strong

Til that day we'll keep keeping on yeah
Until the day when we can celebrate our victory, we must persevere and continue to fight

Keep on keepin' on oh yeah!
Maintain our persistence and determination

K-e-e-p I'm keepin' on yeah!
I am continuing to work hard and persevere

Like a red machine
Working with efficiency and determination

We gotta keep a keep a stay out
We must remain vigilant and resolute in our efforts

Maybe 5 or even 6 months yeah
We may be working at this for a longer period of time than we anticipate

7, 8, 9, 10 and if it takes a year
We must be prepared to continue on this path, even if that means it takes an entire year

We got to last a year
Our persistence and perseverance will be essential to our success even if it takes a long time
