"Fight to Win"
Goodie Mob featuring Cee Lo Green on "The Voice" singing "Fight to Win" (iTunes Link)
I'm not big on rap/hip-hop, but this song is strangely compelling. I do love Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy", so I do like Cee Lo to some extent. Never consciously listened to anything else he did.
Hand transcript of lyrics, since I can't find them online. Skipping the background lyrics.
(Spoken)
Fight to win.
Stand up straight.
No debate.
Pushed by hate.
Concentrate.
Penetrate.
Generate.
Motivate.
Live by faith.
Keep believing.
I know the reason.
Is the season.
Now's the time.
Keep on dreaming.
Keep on leading.
Keep on fighting.
(Sung)
I am fighting, for the liberation, of voices with something to say.
Like many before me, for glory, you'll have to stand in harm's way.
I'm no savior, just a soldier, soldier with an order.
So I have no choice, but to trust the gun, because it must be done.
My only fear, is what might have been, if I didn't fight to win.
If I loose, then it was worth dying for.
If I win, I only live to fight again.
If I loose, then it was worth dying for.
If I win, I only live to fight again.
You should be proud, for the courage, the courage to think out loud.
You'll find your way, if you're foolish, enough to be faithful.
Believe me, it won't be easy, but it's surely not impossible.
And if they won't listen, save your breath, and save yourself.
And as soon, as you see sunlight again, get up and fight to win.
If we loose, then it was worth dying for.
If we win, we only live to fight again.
If we loose, then it was worth dying for.
If we win, we only live to fight again.
