[Kendrick Lamar:]
And everybody know the story of David and GoliathBut this is bigger than triumph
This is for the warrior, this is for you and IThis is for euphoria, give me a piece of mind
God is recording this! won't you look in the sky?Tell him that you got the behavior of your neighbor
Even when stability's never in your favorFly with the turbulence, only last a minute
Land on your dreams, and recognize you live itWalk through the valley of peace, with bare feet
Run through the flames, that's more passion for meI passed testimony just so the world can see
Battle wounds on me, now watch me like em cleanI know, I know, my pride, my goals, my highs
My lows, I know I know, it's mind controlI know I could prosper, no impostor
Prosecute my postureI stand up and I stand by it what
[Alicia Keys:]I am a freedom fighter, the name that history wrote
And even through disaster, eye of the tiger for hopeI'm trying to find my way back, there's no day off for heroes
And even when I'm tired, Go is the only word I know
And the night is takin' overAnd the moonlight gets exposure
And the players have been chosenAnd it seems like fate has spoken
When it seems your faith has brokenBy the second, losin' focus
Ain't no way to get off, get off, get off, get offUnless you move forward
I bet they wonder how I go on [2x]
I'll simply say it's on again, it's on againThe world don't stop, it's on again, it's on again
I am a lonely hero, trying to fight my battlesLife likes to blow the cold wind, sometimes it freezes my shadow
In the midst of all this darkness, I sacrifice my egoThere ain't no room for selfish, we do it for the people
And the night is takin' overAnd the moonlight gets exposure
And the players have been chosenAnd it seems like fate has spoken
When it seems your faith has brokenBy the second, losin' focus
Ain't no way to get off, get off, get off, get offUnless you move forward
I bet they wonder how I go on [2x]
I'll simply say it's on again, it's on againThe world don't stop, it's on again, it's on again
The work don't stop, 'cause they don't stopAnd everybody here trying to get on top
Everybody from the burbs down to the blockGotta hold on tight and don't let go, let go
NahSo you think you're hot?
Gotta grind hard, give it all you gotYou can have, or you can have not
You see that a lot in the ghetto (ghetto)How I go on, go on
I bet they wonder how I go on, go on
I'll simply say it's on again, it's on againThe world don't stop, it's on again, it's on again
