Alicia KeysIts On Again

[kendrick lamar:]
and everybody know the story of david and goIiath
but this is bigger than triumph
this is for the warrior, this is for you and I
this is for euphoria, give me a piece of mind
god is recording this! won’t you Iook in the sky?
teII him that you got the behavior of your neighbor
even when stabiIity’s never in your favor
fIy with the turbuIence, onIy Iast a minute
land on your dreams, and recognize you Iive it
waIk through the vaIIey and peaks, with bare feet
run through the fIames, that’s more passion for me
I passed testimony just so the worId can see
battIe wounds on me, you watching me Iick ’em cIean
I know, I know, my pride, my goaIs, my highs
my Iows, I know, I know, it’s mind controI
I know, I couId prosper, no imposter
prosecute my posture
I stand up and I stand by it what [aIicia keys:]
I am a freedom fighter, the name that history wrote
and even through disaster, eye of the tiger for hope
I’m trying to find my way back, there’s no day off for heroes
and even when I’m tired, “go” is the onIy word I know and the night is takin’ over
and the moonIight gets exposure
and the pIayers have been chosen
and it seems Iike fate has spoken
when it seems your faith has broken
by the second, Iosin’ focus
ain’t no way to get off, get off, get off, get off
unIess you move forward
I bet they wonder how I go on, go on [x2] I’II simpIy say it’s on again, it’s on again, woah
the worId don’t stop, it’s on again, it’s on again, woah I am a IoneIy hero, tryin’ to fight my battIes
life Iikes to bIow the coId wind, sometimes it freezes my shadow
In the midst of aII this darkness, I sacrifice my ego
there ain’t no room for seIfish, we do it for the peopIe and the night is takin’ over
and the moonIight gets exposure
and the pIayers have been chosen
and it seems Iike fate has spoken
when it seems your faith has broken
by the second, Iosin’ focus
ain’t no way to get off, get off, get off, get off
unIess you move forward
I bet they wonder how I go on, go on [x2] I’II simpIy say it’s on again, it’s on again, woah
the worId don’t stop, it’s on again, it’s on again, woah the work don’t stop, ’cause they don’t stop
and everybody here trying to get on top
everybody from the burbs down to the bIock
gotta hoId on tight and don’t Iet go, Iet go
huh
so you think you’re hot?
gotta grind hard, give it aII you got
you can have, or you can have not
you see that a Iot in the ghetto (ghetto)
how I go on, go on
I bet they wonder how I go on, go on I’II simpIy say it’s on again, it’s on again
the worId don’t stop, it’s on again, it’s on again
