Optimistic: The Remix

When life gets dark it's easy to forget that the sun never leaves us
But we leave the sun, see it's cyclical
The sun sets and it rises, because the Earth moves away from it
A lot of times we can move our eyes from the light
But if you stand still, when it's dark I promise you that the sun will rise again
It's guaranteed, because it's been dark before
That's why weeping may endure for a night, but joy does come in the morning
Let's go

When in the midst of sorrow
You can't see up when looking down
A brighter day tomorrow will bring
You hear the voice of reason
Telling you this can never be done
No matter how hard reality sinks (oh oh)
Just hold on to your dreams

Head up to the sky
Head up to (head up to the sky) yeah
Head up to the (head up to the sky)
Keep your head up, yeah
Sounds so good (head up to the sky)
Pull up, let me talk to ya

Ooh
When things around you crumble (whoo)
Know you don't have to stumble and fall (come on)
Keep pushing on and don't you look back (don't you look back)

I know of storm and strife (yeah)
I been around 'em all my life
Just think ahead and you'll be inspired
To reach higher and higher

Head up to the sky oo no no no
(This is crazy) keep your head up to the sky
Head up to the sky (keep your head up, yeah)
Head up to the sky
Head up to the sky
Let's go

Don't stop the rhythm
We want optimism
Keep your head up as if 'Pac was livin'
In the skies, wise words fall down
You can get lit, get live, get down Come on
August Greene y'all the summer, the fall sounds
Spring to the winter, we exemplify
Fight or fly, the high, the Chi, the H, the D
This is alphabet city
You know the science, brought the alchemists with me
Angels sing along, but I still miss Whitney
Houston is the place, Detroit is the place
Chicago license, the Ill' on the plates Yeah
Boom in the room so you can't debase
The sky wrote it down so you can't erase (yeah)
Elated, the way I relayed it
The Lord made it, so I prayed it with my head up

Head up to the sky (Hallejujah)
Head up to the sky (keep your head up, yeah)
Head up to the sky (let me talk to ya right now)
To remind you that there's a bigger plan than what you see right now
Head up to the sky
If what you see, is all you see, then you do not see all there is to be seen
Come on

Don't give up
Don't give in
Keep your head up to the sky
Give it up
And while you keep your head up
I want you to breathe
Come on, breathe
That's right, breathe
Come on, breathe
Don't give up
Everybody now, breathe
Don't give in
Come on, breathe
Just keep your head up (come on, breathe)
Keep your head up (because God is in control)

Head up to the sky (keep your head up)
Head up to the sky, ha
Keep your head up (keep your head up)
Keep your head up (keep your head up)
Head up to the sky (let's go)

Be optimistic, be optimistic, ay
Be optimistic, be optimistic
Head up to the sky
