Underdog by Alicia Keys

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
She was walking in the street, looked up and noticed
He was nameless, he was homeless
She asked him his (1)________ and told him what hers was
He gave her a (2)__________ 'bout a life
With a glint in his eye and a (3)____________ of a smile
One conversation, a simple moment
The things that change us if we notice
When we look up, sometimes
They said I (4)__________ never make it
But I was built to break the mold
The only dream that I've been chasing is my own
So I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stop
Single mothers waiting on a (5)__________ to come
Young teachers, student doctors
Sons on the frontline knowing they don't get to run
This goes out to the underdog
Keep on keeping at (6)________ you love
You'll find that (7)______________ soon enough
You will (8)________ up, rise up, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
She's riding in a taxi back to the kitchen
Talking to the (9)____________ 'bout his wife and his children
On the run from a country where they put you in prison
For (10)__________ a woman and (11)________________ your mind

One conversation, a (12)____________ moment
The things that change us if we notice
When we look up, sometimes
They said I would (13)__________ make it
But I was (14)__________ to break the mold
The (15)________ (16)__________ that I've been chasing is my own
So I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stop
Single mothers waiting on a check to come
Young teachers, student doctors
Sons on the frontline (17)______________ they don't get to run
This goes out to the underdog
Keep on (18)______________ at (19)________ you love
You'll find that (20)______________ (21)________ enough
You will rise up, rise up, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Everybody (22)________ up
You gonna rise up, ay
I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stop
Single mothers waiting on a check to come
Young teachers, student doctors
Sons on the (23)__________________ knowing (24)________ don't get to run
