lirik lagu the philharmonik - underdog
[verse 1]
long time no see how’s the music thing
oh my how you’ve grown and the times have changed
lookin’ at me like you never caused me any pain
teasing me in the schoolyard where we used to play
maybe one of these days we can collaborate
i always believed from the start that you would be great
i see you around maybe one of these days
that’s the last time that i saw you ‘fore you caught a case
i feel that the moment you could recognize my talent
was the moment that you tried to hop on the bandwagon
i never knew you were underappreciated too
i think i was the one that underestimated you
even if we both hurt i can try to make it work (make it work)
we can put each other first just to see the tables turned, yeah (tables turned)
[chorus]
’cause n-body ever want to root, root, root, root
for the underdog (for the underdog)
until they see you come up, up, up, up
like a shining star (like a shining star)
so love me right here, right now
’cause you don’t know when i’ll be gone (i’ll be gone)
it’d be better if you realised or recognised who i was
from the start (from the start)
[verse 2]
got children growing up in fatherless homes
when a single mother making ends meet on her own
she’s exhausted as soon as she step foot in the door
all she wants is a clean house when she gets home
the black man gotta work twice as hard
just so he can receive half that of his counterparts
they break his mind first eventually then break his heart
doing things that will always force him to fall apart
how much would it hurt you
if you for once would just put yourself up in their shoes
and see the struggles that many folks have to go through
when there’s no one around that they can turn to
’cause i don’t need advice, i just need you to understand, yeah
what we’re capable of if you would just give us the chance, yeah
[chorus]
to make everybody want to root, root, root, root
for the underdog (for the underdog)
until they see us all come up, up, up
like some shining stars (like some shining stars)
love us right here, right now
’cause you don’t know when we’ll be gone (we’ll be gone)
it’d be better if you realised or recognised who we were
from the start (from the start)
[verse 3]
as i grew older, i started seeing things in a different light
as i grew wiser, i learned the difference between wrong and right
and became a survivor, in this thing that we call life
in places i admired, ‘cause change doesn’t come overnight
but i’mma overcome and persevere
until i conquer every single one of my fears
for the times i felt unaccepted and shed tears
until i smile every time i look in the mirror
’cause however they see me doesn’t really make me
who i am
if you tell me that i can’t do i’ll show you that i can too
that’s who i am
[chorus]
’cause i’ll make you always want to root, root, root, root
for the underdog (for the underdog)
’cause you’re gonna see me come up, up, up, up
like a shining star (like a shining star)
so love me right here, right now
’cause you don’t know when i’ll be gone (i’ll be gone)
it’d be better if you realised or recognised who i was
from the start (from the start)
