diana ross – i ain’t been licked lyrics
(nickolas ashford/valerie simpson)
roll down the gangway
so they’ll see that it’s me
i know they’ll wonder about my recovery
yes, i lost a love that promised happiness
what my heart wouldn’t accept
put me to the test
they keep a holding me down
but i rise
yes it can be done
they keep a holding me down
but i rise
they can’t make me run
keep a holding me down
but i rise
got my second wind
keep a holding me down
but i rise
tell ’em i’m back again
just say
i ain’t been licked
i ain’t been licked
i ain’t been licked
tell ’em for me
i ain’t been licked
like outa nowhere my whole world fell apart
till this day no one knows
what i felt in my heart
all those precious things
inside me tried to still
hands i thought would help
pushed me over the hill
keep a holding me down
but i rise
yes, it can be done
keep a holding me down
but i rise
they can’t make me run
keep a holding me down
but i rise
got my second wind
keep a holding me down
but i rise
tell ’em i’m back again
just say
i ain’t been licked
i ain’t been licked
i ain’t been licked
tell ’em for me
i ain’t been licked
keep a holding me down
but i rise
just to start again
rise
show ’em that i can
rise
found a brand new dream
rise
just to prove one thing
just say
i ain’t been licked
i ain’t been licked
i ain’t been licked
tell ’em for me
i ain’t been licked
i want the world to see
i ain’t been licked
although my love is gone
i ain’t been licked
somehow i carry one
i ain’t been licked
i’ll find the strength somehow
i ain’t been licked
i think i’m ready now
i ain’t been licked
i ain’t been licked
i ain’t been licked
i ain’t been licked
