I Ain't Been Licked |
Roll down the gangway |
So they’ll see that it’s me I know they’ll wonder about my recovery |
Yes, I lost a love that promised happiness |
What my heart wouldn’t accept |
Put me to the test |
They keep a holding me down |
But I rise |
Yes it can be done |
They keep a holding me down |
But I rise |
They can’t make me run |
Keep a holding me down |
But I rise |
Got my second wind |
Keep a holding me down |
But I rise |
Tell 'em I’m back again |
Just say |
I ain’t been licked |
I ain’t been licked |
I ain’t been licked |
Tell 'em for me I ain’t been licked |
Like outa nowhere my whole world fell apart |
Till this day no one knows |
What I felt in my heart |
All those precious things |
Inside me tried to still |
Hands I thought would help |
Pushed me over the hill |
Keep a holding me down |
But I rise |
Yes, it can be done |
Keep a holding me down |
But I rise |
They can’t make me run |
Keep a holding me down |
But I rise |
Got my second wind |
Keep a holding me down |
But I rise |
Tell 'em I’m back again |
Just say |
I ain’t been licked |
I ain’t been licked |
I ain’t been licked |
Tell 'em for me I ain’t been licked |
Keep a holding me down |
But I rise |
Just to start again |
Rise |
Show 'em that I can |
Rise |
Found a brand new dream |
Rise |
Just to prove one thing |
Just say |
I ain’t been licked |
I ain’t been licked |
I ain’t been licked |
Tell 'em for me I ain’t been licked |
I want the world to see |
I ain’t been licked |
Although my love is gone |
I ain’t been licked |
Somehow I carry one |
I ain’t been licked |
I’ll find the strength somehow |
I ain’t been licked |
I think I’m ready now |
I ain’t been licked |
I ain’t been licked |
I ain’t been licked |
I ain’t been licked |
