Underdog lyrics

[Intro]

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

He gave her a story 'bout 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

[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 front line 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

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, a single 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 front line 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

Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Bridge]

Everybody rise up

You gonna rise up, ayy

[Chorus]

So I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stop

Single mothers waiting on a check to come (Say you're gonna make it)

Young teachers, student doctors (Yeah)

Sons on the front line 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

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh
