Friends they turn away.
I keep movin' on
But I never found out why
I keep pushing so hard the dream,
I keep tryin to make it right
Through another lonely day, whoaa.”

If that's what it's all about
If that's movin' up then I'm movin' out.”

Billy Joel (1949) American singer-songwriter and pianist

“Keep me preoccupied
Keep me busy, busy, busy
So I won't have to think
I don't want to think
Because it only brings me pain
I just keep running away from
My problems
Keep me busy
Give me a million things to do
So I can keep running away from myself.”

“I'm not loving you, way I wanted to
I can't keep my cool, so I keep it true

I can't keep myself and still keep you too No more wasting time, you can't wait for life
We're just racing time, where's the finish line?”

Kanye West (1977) American rapper, singer and songwriter

Never backwards stupid here's another classic”
