THE ROOTS lyrics : "The Fire"

(feat. John Legend)



[John Legend]
Ohhhh, the fire, the fire
Ohhhh, the fire, the fire


[Chorus: John Legend]
There's something in your heart

and it's in your eyes
It's the fire, inside you
Let it burn

You don't say good luck
You say don't give up
It's the fire, inside you

Let it burn

[Black Thought]

Yeah, and if I'm ever at the crossroads
and start feeling mixed signals like Morse code
My soul start to grow colder than the North Pole

I try to focus on the hole of where the torch goes
In the tradition of these legendary sports pros
As far as I can see, I've made it to the threshold

Lord knows I've waited for this a lifetime
And I'm an icon when I let my light shine
Shine bright as an example of a champion

Taking the advantage, never copping out or cancelling
Burn like a chariot, learn how to carry it
Maverick, always above and beyond average

Fuel to the flame that I train with and travel with
Something in my eyes say I'm so close to having the prize
I realise I'm supposed to reach for the skies

Never let somebody try to tell you otherwise

[Chorus]


[Black Thought]
One love, one game, one desire

One flame, one bonfire, let it burn higher
I never show signs of fatigue or turn tired
cause I'm the definition of tragedy turned triumph

It's David and Goliath, I made it to the eye of
the storm, feeling torn like they fed me to the lions
Before my time start to wind down like the Mayans

I show 'em how I got the grind down like a science
It sounds like a riot on hush, it's so quiet
The only thing I hear is my heart, I'm inspired

by the challenge that I find myself standing eye to eye with
Then move like a wise warrior and not a coward
You can't escape the history that you was meant to make

That's why the highest victory is what I'm meant to take
You came to celebrate, I came to sever great
I hate losing, I refuse to make the same mistake


[John Legend]
Ohhhh, the fire, the fire

Ohhhh, the fire, the fire

[Chorus]


[John Legend]
Ohhhh, the fire inside you

The fire inside you
The fire inside you
The fire inside you
