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 Imma find my way
Imma stand up like a soldier, Imma 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, Imma stand up like a soldier, Tonight I'm gonna take over
[Chorus:] '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 have kicked us to the curb, These days are so hard to get heard, We gonna stand up like a soldier, 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
Imma stand up like a soldier, Imma 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, Imma stand up like a soldier, Tonight I'm gonna take over
