My father said never give up son
Just look how good Cassius become
Mohammed, Mahatma and Nelson
Not scared to be strong

Now you could run and just say "They're right
No there'll never be no one in my whole life"
Or you could turn and see they're weak, they're wrong
And get to keep on dancing all life long

My father said never give up son
Just look what Amelia and Joan done
Or Rosa, Teresa, the war won
Not scared to be strong

Now you could run and just say "They're right
No there'll never be no one in my whole life"
Or you could turn and see they're weak, they're wrong
And get to keep on dancing all life long

Yeah you could be
Someone special
You've got bright in your brains, [?] you'll go higher than they've ever gone
In you I see
Someone special
You've got fire in your eyes when you realize you'll go further than we've ever gone
Just turn it on

[Big Sean:]
Look I pay my intuition I couldn't afford tuition
My funds was insufficient and it felt I'm in prison
And suddenly I realized I had to set my mind free
I was trusting statistics more than I trust me
Get a degree, good job, 401k, but I'm tryna change k's to m's, what does it say
And maybe I could be the new Ali of music, probably
Instead of doing it just as a hobby like these boys told me to
I guess you either watch the show or you show 'em proof
Prove it to them you prove it to yourself but honestly its better if you do it for yourself
Never complacent till we hit the oasis
One life don't waste it feel my heart races, success I taste it, ah
We on the verge of getting every single thing that we deserve

[Chris Martin:]
Yeah you could be
Someone special
You've got fire in your eyes I see heaven inside you'll go further than we've ever gone
In you I see
Someone special
You've got bright in your brains you can break through the chains you'll go higher than we've ever gone
Just turn it on

In you I see
Someone special
Don't go to war with yourself
Just turn, just turn, just turn it on
And you can't go wrong
