The Roots feat. John Legend - The Fire |
|
The fire, the fire |
|
The fire, the fire |
|
John Legend: There's something in your heart |
|
and it's in your eyes |
|
It's the fire, |
|
inside you |
|
Let it burn |
|
You don't say good luck |
|
You say don't give up |
|
It's the fire, |
|
inside you |
|
Let it burn |
|
Black Thought: Yeah, and if I'm ever at the crossroads |
|
and start feeling mixed signals like Morse code |
|
My soul start to grow colder than the North Pole |
|
I try to focus on the hole of where the torch goes |
|
In the tradition of these legendary sports pros |
|
As far as I can see, I've made it to the threshold |
|
Lord knows I've waited for this a lifetime |
|
And I'm an icon when I let my light shine |
|
Shine bright as an example of a champion |
|
Taking the advantage, never copping out or cancelling |
|
Burn like a chariot, learn how to carry it |
|
Maverick, always above and beyond average |
|
Fuel to the flame that I train with and travel with |
|
Something in my eyes say I'm so close to having the prize |
|
I realise I'm supposed to reach for the skies |
|
Never let somebody try to tell you otherwise |
|
John Legend: There's something in your heart |
|
and it's in your eyes |
|
It's the fire, |
|
inside you |
|
Let it burn |
|
You don't say good luck |
|
You say don't give up |
|
It's the fire, |
|
inside you |
|
Let it burn |
|
Black Thought: One love, one game, one desire |
|
One flame, one bonfire, let it burn higher |
|
I never show signs of fatigue or turn tired |
|
cause I'm the definition of tragedy turned triumph |
|
It's David and Goliath, I made it to the eye of |
|
the storm, feeling torn like they fed me to the lions |
|
Before my time start to wind down like the Mayans |
|
I show 'em how I got the grind down like a science |
|
It sounds like a riot on hush, it's so quiet |
|
The only thing I hear is my heart, I'm inspired |
|
by the challenge that I find myself standing eye to eye with |
|
Then move like a wise warrior and not a coward |
|
You can't escape the history that you was meant to make |
|
That's why the highest victory is what I'm meant to take |
|
You came to celebrate, I came to sever great |
|
I hate losing, I refuse to make the same mistake |
|
The fire, the fire |
|
The fire, the fire |
|
John Legend: There's something in your heart |
|
and it's in your eyes |
|
It's the fire, |
|
inside you |
|
Let it burn |
|
You don't say good luck |
|
You say don't give up |
|
It's the fire, |
|
inside you |
|
Let it burn |
|
The fire inside you |
|
The fire inside you |
|
The fire inside you |
