Eyes On the Prize Lyrics


Everything I've learned I have forgotten
Everything I've forgotten looks just like new
I pulled the ends out for the tie that binds
To keep my promise with you
[Chorus]
With my eyes on the prize
And my mind on you
I put my pride on the line
My whole life too
Now anything you ask me for is yours
Now say the word and I'll lay it at your feet
I'll meet the pavements down the line somehow
If you keep your promise with me
[Chorus]

You say, take your axe and fashion me a kind of swing
Walkin' blues have played a number on my feet
I'll dance whatever dance you need to dance
'Cause you keep you promise with me
You'll keep your promise with me
You'll keep your promise
You'll keep your promise
You'll keep your promise with me

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

There is a raw feeling on this record that cuts to the bone. As Daptone's newest imprint, Dunham Records gives birth to her sophmore seven, and a proud mother she should be. Charles Bradley has lain his soul bare on this wax. "The World (Is Going Up in Flames)" features the Gospel Queens on backing vocals over an arrangement by the Menahan Street Band that is as deep and vertigo-inspiring as a glacier carved valley.
