the show goes on

so no matter what you been through
no matter what you into
no matter what you see
when you look outside your window
brown grass or green grass
picket fence or barbed wire
never ever put them down
you just lift your arms higher
raise 'em til your arms tired
let 'em know you're there
that you struggling and surviving
that you gonna persevere
ain't nobody leavin', nobody goin' home
even if they turn the lights out,
the show is goin' on.

-lupe fiasco, the show goes on
