Underdog

Hou hou hou.......                      She was walking in the street looked up and noticed  He was nameless he was homeless  She asked him his name and told him what hers was  He gave her a story about a life  With a glint in his eye  And a corner of a smile  One conversation a simple moment  The things that change us  If we notice  When we look up sometimes  They said I would never make it  But I was built to break the mold    The only dream that I’ve been chasing is my own  So I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stop  Single mothers waiting on a check to come  Young teachers student doctors sons on the frontline  Knowing they don’t get to run  This goes out to the underdog  Keep on keeping at what you love  You’ll find that someday soon enough  You’re gonna rise up rise up yeah  Hou hou hou.......                                       She’s riding in a taxi back to the kitchen  Talking to the driver about his wife and his children  On the run from a country where they put you in prison  For being a woman and speaking your mind  She looked in his eyes in the mirror and he smiled  One conversation a single moment  The things that change us  If we notice  When we look up sometimes    They said I would never make it  But I was built to break the mold    The only dream that I’ve been chasing is my own  So I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stop  Single mothers waiting on a check to come  Young teachers student doctors sons on the frontline  Knowing they don’t get to run  This goes out to the underdog  Keep on keeping at what you love  You’ll find that someday soon enough  You’re gonna rise up rise up yeah  Hou hou hou.......                                        Everybody rise up               You’re gonna rise yeah     I    I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stop  Single mothers waiting on a check to come  Young teachers student doctors sons on the frontline  Knowing they don’t get to run  This goes out to the underdog  Keep on keeping at what you love  You’ll find that someday soon enough  You’re gonna rise up rise up yeah Oum Ba Ouh.......                               Oum Ba Ouh.......                                    /      // ///
