Unsung Hero

If I had a genie in my life,

I'd wish away the pain:

For every man in this world that lost his house today,

For every woman holdin' on that can't get through the day.

So now you got to start from zero,

And you're an unsung hero.

Just get up on your feet,

Now look back and you'll see

You made it through the storm

I know it's hard, but be strong.

Hang on...

Hang on to your vision of tomorrow,

And pray*? that you stand with no more sorrow

You started all from zero,

But you're my unsung hero.

Work together, let's unite, I have a feeling we'll be fine.

(I keep thinking) Don't *dwell* on the pain of yesterday (yesterday, yesterday).

So hard,

I can't follow.

I push hard,

Put the beat in my heart.

But I'm looking out 'cause you got so far to go (far to go).

But all I have is hope and to dream

That we will overcome,

And see the city of each and every one

Reaching out and helping each other one on one.

But first we got to build from zero

'Cause we're our unsung hero.

Just get up on your feet,

Now look back and you'll see

You made it through the storm

I know it's hard, but be strong.

Hang on...

Hang on to your vision of tomorrow,

And pray*? that you stand with no more sorrow

You started all from zero,

But you're my unsung hero.

Work together, let's unite, I have a feeling we'll be fine.

(I keep thinking) Don't dwell on the pain of yesterday (yesterday, yesterday).

So hard,

I can't follow.

I push hard,

Put the beat in my heart.

But I'm looking out 'cause we've got so far to go (far to go).

Can we sing it again?

Work together, let's unite, I have a feeling we'll be fine.

(But I keep thinking) Don't dwell on the pain of yesterday (yesterday, yesterday).

So hard,

I can't follow.

I push hard,

Put the beat in my heart.

But I'm looking out 'cause we've got so far to go (far to go).

I know you've seen some better times,

But loss is a part of everybody's life.

Just pull together with your neighbor,

And you will rise.

(We will rise).

Yes we will, yes we will.

We will overcome

(We will rise).

Every boy, every girl,

Sing it loud.

(We will rise).

Tell the world what you're feelin'.

Tell the world what you're doin'.

To the top now, to the top now,

(We will rise).

Just tell the world,

We will rise.
