The Roots - The Fire lyrics

<span class="feat">(feat. John Legend)</span>

<i>[John Legend]</i>

Ohhhh, the fire, the fire

Ohhhh, the fire, the fire

<i>[Chorus: John Legend]</i>

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

<i>[Black Thought]</i>

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

<i>[Chorus]</i>

<i>[Black Thought]</i>

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

<i>[John Legend]</i>

Ohhhh, the fire, the fire

Ohhhh, the fire, the fire

<i>[Chorus]</i>

<i>[John Legend]</i>

Ohhhh, the fire inside you

The fire inside you

The fire inside you

The fire inside you
