Chaka Khan - Keep Your Head Up Lyrics

When your heart is free
It's easy to make a decision
When your head is clear
You know you have good judgment
But when your life is turning topsy turvey
And you have no reasons for what's disturbing
Remember these words my father said to me

He said, keep your head up don't say you love him
(Keep your head)
Walk away from all that has hurt you
(Find your power)
Find your power you know your strong
Make that step and it will help you along

When your mind's at peace
(at peace)
Sleep comes so very peacefully
When you start to dream
They are wonderful and so very sweet
But when your life is turning topsy turvey
And you have no answers for what's disturbing
Remember these words a preacher said to me

He said, keep your head up don't say you love him
(Keep your head)
Walk away from all that has hurt you
(Find your power)
Find your power you know your strong
Make that step and it will help you along

He said, keep your head up don't say you love him
(Keep your head)
Walk away from all that has hurt you
(Find your power)
Find your power you know your strong
Make that step and it will help you along

Why give up this time you can win
(You can win)
Why give up this battle is within
(Is within)
Why stay when you don't know what he's gonna do
Why choose him when its time to choose you

Keep your head up don't say you love him
Walk away from all that is hurting
Find your power you know your strong
Make that step it will help you along (2x)

Keep your head up (6x)
