Ay Yo

I wanna thank you
 For every time you tried
 To get the best of me inside
 How many times I compromised
 I don't do this for the glory
 Or for what people might say (might say)
 I'm gonna do this my own way
 Starting today
 There's nothing that you can tell me
 I'll show you I was born ready
 And I say, ay yo
 Rise up, let me see your head high
 And if you're with it, put your hands up in the sky
 La-la, di-di-da, di-di-di, da-di-da
 Ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo
 And I'm gon' rock it to the fullest in this life
 So I'ma give it all I got before I die
 La-la, di-di-da, di-di-di, da-di-da
 Ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo
 Every woman has a purpose
 Nothing happens by chance
 This is your life here in your hands
 You gotta fight to take the stand
 And I know you might not see it
 But the high can fall so fast
 When you're in first don't forget the last
 You gotta give it all you have
 Oh, life can be unforgiving
 I'm fighting to keep on living
 And I say, ay yo
 Rise up, let me see your head high (head high)
 And if you're with it, put your hands up in the sky
 La-la, di-di-da, di-di-di, da-di-da
 Ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo
 And I'm gon' rock it to the fullest in this life
 So I'ma give it all I got before I die
 La-la, di-di-da, di-di-di, da-di-da
 Ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo
 Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
 If you have a light
 Then hold it up and let it shine
 Would you make the choice to meet your destiny?
 Or let this lifetime pass you by? Yeah
 Only you can make it
 What's yours is yours, no one can take it
 If you have a dream
 Something you believe, it's time to set it free
 And I say ay yo
 Rise up, let me see your head high (head high)
 And if you're with it, put your hands up in the sky
 La-la, di-di-da, di-di-di, da-di-da
 Ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo
 And I'm gon' rock it to the fullest in this life (in this life)
 So I'ma give it all I got before I die (give it all I got until I die)
 La-la, di-di-da, di-di-di, da-di-da
 Ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo
 Rise up, let me see your head high
 And if you're with it, put your hands up in the sky
 La-la, di-di-da, di-di-di, da-di-da
 Ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo
 And I'm gon' rock it to the fullest in this life
 So I'ma give it all I got before I die
 La-la, di-di-da, di-di-di...
