I Ain’t Been Licked

Lyrics

Roll down the gangway 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
