Any Given Sunday movie - Any Given Sunday lyrics
rate meSong by Jamie Foxx f/ Common, Guru<br /><br>
[Guru:]<br>
Though the times are getting wicked I'm older<br>
I got a chip on my shoulder<br>
True players always maintaing, I'm different I told ya<br>
Don't want to be just a commodity<br>
I'm smarter G<br>
This is my life, and my soul not just a chart to me<br>
It's the truest part of me<br>
Fans now mobbing me<br>
Fake friends acting like I just won the lottery<br>
Back then I guess it was hard to see<br>
The real paradox<br>
What an artist see<br>
It's like that saying<br>
Be careful what you pray for you might get it <br>
Of course it's all about winning and money but how far will we let it<br>
Taken 'em, the holy game can make 'em, then instantaneously break 'em<br>
Rain one day sunshine the next<br>
Haters try and stop my flow sometimes I'm vexed<br>
What's next accounted by the press<br>
Mad stress on my chest <br>
Of course I know that I'm blessed but here's the test<br>
On "Any Given Sunday" I got to play my best<br>
<br>
[Chorus:]<br>
Sacrifice don't give up the fight, <br>
everything will be all right on any given Sunday<br>
Guru: The harder they come the hard, yeah the harder they must fall<br>
Depends on you if you win or lose, <br>
you know you got to pay some dues so that you can live on Monday<br>
Guru: Strive to achieve and die for what you believe<br>
<br>
[Jamie Foxx:]<br>
On the battlefields left abandoned<br>
One man standing<br>
To me the ball was handed<br>
Taken shots and left stranded,<br>
No defensive they tackle me<br>
Every blow brings back a memory<br>
Learning lessons from my injury<br>
It's killing me <br>
Cause at first they wasn't feeling me<br>
Never given a chance to show my true ability<br>
Too many pressures trying to play me out<br>
Put me positions that's sure to lay me out<br>
No doubt<br>
<br>
[Chorus:]<br>
Sacrifice don't give up the fight, <br>
everything will be all right on any given Sunday<br>
Guru: The harder they come the hard, yeah the harder they must fall<br>
Depends on you if you win or lose, <br>
you know you got to pay some dues so that you can live on Monday<br>
Guru: Strive to achieve and die in for what you believe<br>
<br>
[Common:]<br>
Playing on a field of hard times<br>
These struggles are like the yardlines that I gain from<br>
Nowhere is where I came from<br>
>From day one<br>
I knew the game and how to play run<br>
But never knew the price of fame would weigh tons<br>
Now I learn from self when pain comes<br>
And walk when they say run<br>
Fame can be as painful as<br>
Death of patron<br>
Young black, gifted<br>
But I'm rapped in myself<br>
Broke many tackles but I'm trapped in myself<br>
See what happens with wealth<br>
At times you can lose yourself<br>
During the sunniest of days many superstars fell<br>
>From Cotton to football fields<br>
You know how they play brothers<br>
As long as we play well they love us<br>
I know that on Any Given Sunday<br>
This can be taken from me<br>
But it all comes down to is money<br>
I know that on Any Given Sunday <br>
This can be taken from me <br>
But it all comes down to is money y'all<br>
<br>
[Chorus: (2x)]<br>
Sacrifice don't give up the fight, <br>
everything will be all right on Any Given Sunday<br>
Guru: The harder they come the hard, yeah the harder they must fall<br>
Depends on you if you win or lose, <br>
you got to pay some dues so that you can live on Monday<br>
Guru: Strive to achieve and die for what you believe<br>
