|
Ohhhh, the fire, the fire
|
Ohhhh, the fire, the fire
|
|
[Chorus: 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
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[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 cerebrate
|
I hate losing, I refuse to make the same mistake
|
|
[John Legend]
|
Ohhhh, the fire, the fire
|
Ohhhh, the fire, the fire
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[John Legend]
|
Ohhhh, the fire inside you
|
The fire inside you
|
The fire inside you
|
The fire inside you
|
