[ Featuring Chaka Khan ]
Well I never had it coming
And I never had it go my way
No, I wasn't even running
Just waiting for the end of the day
Well, would you come along this time?
Would you put both hands over mine?
Won't you come and lift me up?
Won't you stick around when I get stuck?
Running all the liars and the sellers and the buyers away from me
Fighting all the runners and the beggars that are trying to take from me
Oh, we don't need to wallow in our old selves
We don't need to follow when you're not well
We don't need to wallow 'cause it's no fun
We don't need to follow, follow, follow anyone
Still waiting for the end of the day
Rummage in my pocket, I'm looking for the coins to play
Would you come along this time?
Would you put both hands over mine?
Won't you come and lift me up?
Won't you stick around when I get stuck?
Running all the liars and the sellers and the buyers away from me
Fighting all the runners and the beggars that are trying to take from me
Oh, we don't need to wallow in our old selves
We don't need to follow when you're not well
We don't need to wallow 'cause it's no fun
We don't need to follow, follow, follow anyone
Now we mean it
Now we're teaming up, oh
Now we mean it
Now we've seen enough
We're still standing up
We're still standing up
We're still standing up
We're still standing up
Oh, now we mean it
Now we're teaming up, oh
Now we mean it
Now we've seen enough (seen enough)
Oh, we don't need to wallow in our old selves
We don't need to follow when you're not well
We don't need to wallow 'cause it's no fun
We don't need to follow, follow, follow anyone
