Lyrics
I am a freedom fighter, the name that history wrote
And even through disaster, eye of the tiger for hope
I'm trying to find my way back, there's no day off for heroes
And even when I'm tired, "Go", is the only word I know
And the night is takin' over
And the moonlight gets exposure
And the players have been chosen
And it seems like fate has spoken
When it seems your faith has broken
By the second, losin' focus
Ain't no way to get off, get off, get off, get off
Unless you move forward
I'll bet they wonder how, how I go on, go on
I'll bet they wonder how, how I go on, go on
I'll simply say it's on again, it's on again, whoa
The world don't stop, it's on again, it's on again, whoa
I am a lonely hero, trying to fight my battles
Life likes to blow the cold wind, sometimes it freezes my shadow
In the midst of all this darkness, I sacrifice my ego
There ain't no room for selfish, we do it for the people
And the night is takin' over
And the moonlight gets exposure
And the players have been chosen
And it seems like fate has spoken
When it seems your faith has broken
By the second, losin' focus
Ain't no way to get off, get off, get off, get off
Unless you move forward
I'll bet they wonder how, how I go on, go on
I'll bet they wonder how, how I go on, go on
I'll simply say it's on again, it's on again, whoa
The world don't stop, it's on again, it's on again, whoa
The work don't stop, 'cause they don't stop
And everybody here tryna get on top
Everybody from the 'burbs down to the block
Gotta hold on tight and don't let go, let go, huh
So you think you hot?
Gotta grind hard, give it all you got
You can have, or you can have not
You see that a lot in the ghetto, ghetto
How, how, I go on, go on
I'll bet they wonder how, how I go on, go on
I'll simply say it's on again, it's on again, whoa
The world don't stop, it's on again, it's on again, whoa
