  • Watch me while I stand here
    Watch my feet, my stance, my body language
    I'm not someone to be messed with
    I'm a fox on a mission
    You know you're challenging the best here
    It's gonna be real hard
    But I'm gonna be okay
    As long as I try real hard
    I'm always gonna find my way
    I'ma find my way

    I'ma stand up like a soldier
    I'ma get them 'til it's over
    I'll keep marching to the beat
    'til there's bruises on my feet
    Now I'm falling to my knees

    'Cause I'm gonna take this all the way
    It's now or never
    I'll break what's in my way
    I'ma stand up like a soldier
    Tonight I'm gonna take over

    'Cause I know everything's gonna be alright
    Now you're standing here right by my side
    And we dance on, dance on, we gonna dance on
    Ain't gonna work for life when we know we can dance on
    Everything's gonna be okay
    The streets will lighten up my way
    So we dance on, dance on, we gonna dance on
    Ain't gonna work for life when we know we can dance on

    Not in a million years
    Did I think my feet would bring me this far
    So much frustration, sleepless nights
    Now that I'm in charge
    At first no one gave me the time of day
    Now I'm left on my own to show the way
    My sisters, brothers from other mothers
    Can we take this all the way
    Could of kicked us to the curb
    These days are so hard to get heard
    We gonna stand up like a solder
    Get everything we deserve (trust)
    At first everyone was cautious
    When we brought in something new
    But after weeks of practicing
    We knew exactly what to do

    I'ma stand up like a soldier
    I'ma get them 'til it's over
    I'll keep marching to the beat
    'Til there's bruises on my feet
    Now I'm falling to my knees

    'Cause I'm gonna take this all the way
    It's now or never
    I'll break what's in my way
    I'ma stand up like a soldier
    Tonight I'm gonna take over

    'Cause I know everything's gonna be alright
    Now you're standing here right at my side
    And we dance on, dance on, we gonna dance on
    Ain't gonna work for life when we know we can dance on
    Everything's gonna be okay
    The streets will lighten up my way
    So we dance on, dance on, we gonna dance on
    Ain't gonna work for life when we know we can dance on

    'Cause I know everything's gonna be alright
    Now you're standing here right at my side
    And we dance on, dance on, we gonna dance on
    Ain't gonna work for life when we know we can dance on
    Everything's gonna be okay
    The streets will lighten up my way
    So we dance on, dance on, we gonna dance on
    Ain't gonna work for life when we know we can dance on Writer/s: DINO CONTOSTAVLOS, JONATHAN DAVID PEARN, LUCIANA CAPORASO, NICK BRIDGES, NICK CLOW, RICHARD RAWSON, TULA CONTOSTAVLOS
