Diana Ross - I Ain't Been Licked lyrics
[Diana Ross - I Ain't Been Licked lyrics]
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
