Ooh, ooh, oohOoh, ooh, oohOoh, ooh, oohOoh, ooh, oohShe was walking in the streetLooked up and noticedHe was nameless, he was homelessShe asked him his name and told him what hers wasHe gave her a story 'bout lifeWith a glint in his eye and a corner of a smileOne conversation, a simple momentThe things that change us if we noticeWhen we look up sometimesThey said I would never make itBut I was built to break the moldThe only dream that I've been chasing is my ownSo I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stopSingle mothers waiting on a check to comeYoung teachers, student doctors[Refrão]Sons on the front line knowing they don't get to runThis goes out to the underdogKeep on keeping at what you loveYou'll find that someday soon enoughYou will rise up, rise up, yeahOoh, ooh, ooh[Próxima Parte]Ooh, ooh, oohOoh, ooh, oohOoh, ooh, oohShe's riding in a taxi back to the kitchenTalking to the driver 'bout his wife and his childrenOn the run from a country where they put you in prisonFor being a woman and speaking your mindShe looked in his eyes in the mirror and he smiledOne conversation, a single momentThe things that change us if we noticeWhen we look up sometimesThey said I would never make itBut I was built to break the moldThe only dream that I've been chasing is my ownSo I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stopSingle mothers waiting on a check to comeYoung teachers, student doctors[Refrão] (repetir)[Próxima Parte]Ooh, ooh, oohEverybody rise upYou gonna rise up, ayySo I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stopSingle mothers waiting on a check to come (single mothers)Young teachers, student doctors (yeah)[Refrão] (repetir)[Próxima Parte]Ooh, ooh, oohOoh, ooh, oohOoh, ooh, ooh[Final]
