Under Control
Tim Myers feat Ben Lee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm steppin' forward
Got no regrets
Not lookin' backwards
Lookin' ahead

Life is a melody
Life is a chord
Life guarantees
You never get bored

But we just keep on keepin' on
Keep on keepin' on
Keep on trying to keep it
Under control

Keep on keepin' on
Keep on keepin' on
Keep on trying to keep it
Under control

Life is a highwire without a net
Life is a risk
Life is a bet
Life is a circus
Moving so quick
Sometimes its dramagic
Sometimes its a trick

But we just keep on keepin' on
Keep on keepin' on
Keep on trying to keep it
Under control

Keep on keepin' on
Keep on keepin' on
Keep on trying to keep it
Under control

When you get stuck
Down on your love
You've lost your way

Something inside
Says open your eyes
There comes a new day

It's all you can do
Just keep pushin' through

So we just keep on keepin' on
Keep on keepin' on
Keep on trying to keep it
Under control

Keep on keepin' on
Keep on keepin' on
Keep on trying to keep it
Under control
Under control
Under control
Under control
Under control

The lyrics of Tim Myers's song Under Control are about the struggles and uncertainties of life, but also the determination to push through and live it to the fullest. The singer is emphasizing the importance of moving forward and focusing on the future, without dwelling on the past. Life is compared to a melody and chord, which suggests that there is both harmony and dissonance in life's ups and downs. The singer acknowledges that life can be risky, like walking on a high wire without a net, and that it can also be unpredictable like a circus. However, the singer urges the listener to keep pushing through the good and bad, to try and keep it all "under control."


The chorus of the song reinforces the idea of perseverance and resilience, with the repeated phrase "keep on keepin' on." While life is unpredictable and challenging, the singer encourages the listener to keep trying to keep it all "under control." The final verse of the song offers a message of hope, encouraging the listener to keep going when they feel stuck or lost.
