Keep the Beat — Lin-Manuel Miranda Lyrics

Keep the Beat Song Lyrics

---

The plan was get to a bus
Next thing you know, the two of us
Are floating, drifting somewhere new

She said we'd take a shortcut
I'm trying to be a good sport, but
I don't see how we make it through

Remember the size of the world before
It was you and I, just you and I
And now the horizon holds so much more
And it's do or die, yeah, it's do or die

All I can do when the road bends
Is lean into the curve
And all I can do when the tank's run dry
Is see what's in reserve

And all I can do when the plans break down
Is stay on my feet
And all I can do at the end of the day is play on
Play on and keep the beat

Remember the size of the world before
Now it's you and I, just you and I
And now the horizon holds so much more
And it's do or die, yeah, it's do or die

All I can do when the road bends
(We bounce to the beat of our own drum)
Is lean into the curve
(We bounce to the beat of our own drum)
And all I can do when the tank's run dry
(We bounce to the beat of our own drum)
Is see what's in reserve
(We bounce to the beat of our own drum)

And all I can do when the plans break down
(We wow in a world full of ho-hum)
Is stay on my feet
(We wow in a world full of ho-hum)
And all I can do at the end of the day is play on
Play on and keep the beat
