Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]Ooh...[F][G]
[Am]Ooh...[F][G]

[Verse 1]
She was walking in the [Am]street,
looked up and [F]noticed
He was [G]nameless he was [C]homeless
She [G]asked him his [Am]name
and told him what [F]hers was
He gave her a [G]story 'bout a life
With a glint in his [Am]eye
and a corner of a [F]smile
One conver[G]sa tion,
a simple [C]mo ment
The [G]things that [Am]change us if we [F]no tice
When we [G]look up, sometimes

[Pre-chorus 1]
They said [Am]I would never ma[F]ke it
But I was [G]built to break the [C]mold
The only [Am]dream that I've been [F]chasing
is my [G]own

[Chorus 1]
So I sing a song for the [Am]hustlers
trading at the [F]bus stop
Single [G]mothers
waiting on a check to come
Young [Am]teachers, student [F]doctors
Sons on the [G]frontline
knowing they don't [C]get to [G]run
[Am]This goes out to the [F]underdog
[G]Keep on keeping at [C]what you [G]love
You'll [Am]find that someday [F]soon enough
You will [G]rise up, rise up

[Interlude 1]
[Am]Ooh..[F][G]
[Am]Ooh...[F][G][C]
She's [G]riding in a

[Verse 2]
[Am]taxi
back to the [F]kitchen
Talking to the [G]driver 'bout his
wife and his [C]children
On the [G]run from a [Am]country
where they put you in [F]prison
For being a [G]wo man speaking your mind
She looked in his [Am]eyes in the mirror
and he [F]smiled
One conver[G]sa tion, a single [C]mo ment
The [G]things that [Am]change us if we [F]no tice
When we [G]look up, sometimes
[C]The[G]y said

[Pre-chorus 2]
[Am]I would never ma[F]ke it
But I was [G]built to break the [C]mold
[G]The only dre[Am]am that I've been cha[F]sing
is my [G]own

[Chorus 2]
So I sing a song for the [Am]hustlers
trading at the [F]bus stop
Single [G]mothers
waiting on a check to come
Young [Am]teachers, student [F]doctors
Sons on the [G]frontline
knowing they don't [C]get to [G]run
[Am]This goes out to the [F]underdog
[G]Keep on keeping at [C]what you [G]love
You'll [Am]find that someday [F]soon enough
You will [G]rise up, rise up

[Interlude 2]
[Am]Ooh... [F]Ooh[G]...[C][G]
[Am]Ever[F]ybod[G]y[C][G]
[Am]rise [F]You[G] go[C]nna[G]
[Am]rise, [F]yeah, [G]ay

[Chorus 3]
I sing a song for the [Am]hustlers
trading at the [F]bus stop
Single [G]mothers
waiting on a check to come
Young [Am]teachers, student [F]doctors
