"Some people may think of the word underdog as a negative word, but I see it as a powerful word representing people who may be underestimated and yet still rise to the challenge and exceed expectations," Alicia Keys said in a statement. "I love this song so much because it's about real life and real people and our experiences. We've all been in a place in our lives where we've had to defy the odds. It's never easy."
Underdog Lyrics
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
She Was Walking In The Street
Looked Up And Noticed
He Was Nameless
He Was Homeless
She Asked Him His Name And
Told Him What Hers Was
He Gave Her A Story
About Life
With A Glint In His Eye
And A Corner Of A Smile
One Conversation
A Simple Moment
The Things That Change Us
If We Notice
When We Look Up Sometimes
They Said I Would Never Make It
But I Was Built To Break The Mold
The Only Dream That I Been Chasing
Is My Own
So I Sing A Song For The Hustlers
Trading At The Bus Stop
Single Mothers
Waiting On A Check To Come
Young Teachers
Student Doctors
Sons On The Front Line
Knowing They Don’t Get To Run
This Goes Out To The Underdog
Keep On Keeping At What You Love
You’ll Find That Someday Soon Enough
You Will Rise Up Rise Up Yeah
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
She’s Riding In A Taxi
Back To The Kitchen
Talking To The Driver
‘Bout His Wife And His
Children
On The Run From A Country
Where They Put You In
Prison
For Being A Woman
And Speaking Your Mind
She Looked In His Eyes
In The Mirror And He Smiled
One Conversation
A Single Moment
The Things That Change Us
If We Notice
When We Look Up
Sometimes
They Said I Would Never Make It
But I Was Built To Break The Mold
The Only Dream That I Been Chasing
Is My Own
So I Sing A Song For The Hustlers
Trading At The Bus Stop
Single Mothers
Waiting On A Check To Come
Young Teachers
Student Doctors
Sons On The Front Line
Knowing They Don’t Get To Run
This Goes Out To The Underdog
Keep On Keeping At What You Love
You’ll Find That Someday Soon Enough
You Will Rise Up Rise Up Yeah
Everybody Rise Up
You Better Rise Up
So I Sing A Song For The Hustlers
Trading At The Bus Stop
Single Mothers
Waiting On A Check To Come
Young Teachers
Student Doctors
Sons On The Front Line
Knowing They Don’t Get To Run
This Goes Out To The Underdog
Keep On Keeping At What You Love
You’ll Find That Someday Soon Enough
You Will Rise Up Rise Up Yeah
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
