Keeping Me Alive è un brano scritto e interpretato da Jonathan Roy, contenuto nell'album My Lullaby pubblicato nel 2021. Si tratta del quinto lavoro in studio per il cantautore canadese, reduce dall'ottimo successo riscosso in patria del precedente Mr. Optimist Blues e arrivato terzo in classifica. La canzone è la traccia d'apertura del disco, un'intensa ballata R&B/soul dove il pianoforte gioca un ruolo da protagonista con il suo stile percussivo e accordale.
