My father said "Never give up, son
Just look how good Cassius become
Mohammed, Mahatma, and Nelson
Not scared to be strong"
Now you could run and just say “They're right
No, I'll never be no one in my whole life”
Or you could turn and say "No, wait, they're wrong"
And get to keep on dancing all life long
My father said "Never give up, son
Just look what Amelia and Joan done
Or Rosa, Teresa, their war won
Not scared to be strong"
Now you could run and just say “They're right
No, I'll never be no one in my whole life”
Or you could turn and say "No, wait, they're wrong"
And get to keep on dancing all life long
Yeah you could be
Someone special
You've got bright in your brains
and lightning in your veins
You'll go higher than they've ever gone
In you I see
Someone special
You've got fire in your eyes
And when you realize you'll go further
Than we've ever gone
Just turn it on
