Black-N-Blues down

I have to say
I'm getting closer every day
In every way
You said it right
You gotta keep it in your sight
Or you'll go blind
Take a moment and look around
It's what I've found
What's keeping me down
It's alarming, I found
From the start I was down
Just like everyone else
I've got a glimpse of the light
When I turned to the sky
Now I think I can tell
Tell my fate from some
Hole in the ground
It's what I found
What's keeping me down
If I could be
In control of my destiny
What would it be?
Oh yeah
So understand
That what I do
Is what I am
Not what I can
Oh yeah
Take a moment and
Break it on down
It's what I found
What's keeping me down
It's alarming, I found
From the start I was down
Just like everyone else
I've got a glimpse of the light
When I turned to the sky
Now I think I can tell
Tell my fate from some
Hole in the ground
It's what I found
Now I think I can tell
What's keeping me down
