[Intro]
Alicia Keys
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 1]
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
Gave her a story 'bout life
With a glint in his eye and a corner of a smile
One conversation, simple moment
The things that change us if we notice
When we look up sometimes
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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 will rise up, rise up, yeah
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
Ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
She's riding in a taxi back to the kitchen
Talking to the driver 'bout 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, simple moment
The things that change us if we notice
When we look up sometimes
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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 will rise up, rise up, yeah
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh (Yes, we will)
Ooh, ooh, ooh (If you believe that we can make it, clap with me)
[Outro]
Oomba, ayy, oomba, ayy
Oomba, oomba, oomba, ayy
Oomba, ayy, oomba, ayy
(If you believe nobody can stop you)
Oomba, oomba, oomba, ayy
(This is for you)
Oomba, ayy, oomba, ayy
Oomba, oomba, oomba, ayy
(I believe in you)
Oomba, ayy, oomba, ayy
Oomba, oomba, oomba, ayy
Alicia Keys released Underdog (Live from Movistar Arena Bogota, Colombia) on Wed May 31 2023.
