Dance
London Community Gospel Choir Lyrics

Watch me while I stand here
Observe my posture, gestures, and movements as I assert my presence

Watch my feet, my stance, my body language
Pay attention to the subtle cues I'm conveying through my physicality

I'm not someone to be messed with
I'm a force to be reckoned with

I'm a fox on a mission
I'm driven and focused like a clever predator seeking its prey

You know you're challenging the best here
You're testing yourself against the top talent around

It's gonna be real hard
This challenge won't be easy

But I'm gonna be okay
I'm confident in my abilities to overcome this obstacle

As long as I try real hard
As long as I give it my all

I'm always gonna find my way
I'm resourceful and capable of finding solutions

I'ma find my way
I will find a path forward

I'ma stand up like a soldier
I will stand tall and strong like a brave warrior

I'ma get them 'til it's over
I will persevere until the goal is achieved

I'll keep marching to the beat
I'll continue moving forward with determination and purpose

'til there's bruises on my feet
Even when I'm tired and sore from the effort

Now I'm falling to my knees
I'm overwhelmed by the enormity of the situation

'Cause I'm gonna take this all the way
I'm fully committed to seeing this through to the end

It's now or never
The opportunity to succeed is time-sensitive and immediate

I'll break what's in my way
I will remove any obstacles blocking my path to success

Tonight I'm gonna take over
I'll make my mark and assert my dominance

Cause I know everything's gonna be alright
I have a deep and abiding faith in my own abilities

Now you're standing here right by my side
I have support and encouragement from those around me

And we dance on, dance on, we gonna dance on
We will continue celebrating and enjoying ourselves despite the challenges

Ain't gonna work for life when we know we can dance on
We won't give up on happiness and joy just because life is hard

The streets will lighten up my way
The world will become brighter and more hopeful as I succeed

So we dance on, dance on, we gonna dance on
We will keep moving and grooving through life's ups and downs

Not in a million years
I never could have imagined

Did I think my feet would bring me this far
That I would achieve such great success through hard work and determination

So much frustration, sleepless nights
The struggle has been long and wearing

Now that I'm in charge
I have achieved a position of leadership and authority

At first no one gave me the time of day
I was initially overlooked and underestimated

Now I'm left on my own to show the way
I'm the one leading the charge now

My sisters, brothers from other mothers
My fellow warriors and comrades

Can we take this all the way
Can we succeed in achieving our common goals?

Coulda kicked us to the curb
Others might have dismissed or rejected us

These days are so hard to get heard
It's difficult to make an impact and gain recognition

We gonna stand up like a solder
We will rise up and fight with courage and conviction

Get everything we deserve (trust)
We will earn and claim our rightful rewards, through trust and integrity

At first everyone was cautious
People were wary of our bold approach

When we brought in something new
Our innovative ideas and methods were met with skepticism

But after weeks of practicing
As we honed our skills and strategies

We knew exactly what to do
We gained clarity and confidence in our course of action
