Underdog

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 will rise up rise up yeah 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 will rise up rise up yeah Everybody rise up You're gonna rise yeah 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
