Motivation (Power to the Single Man Extended Mix)

(Ohhh, ohhh)
(Ahh)

(Motivation...)

Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! Hoo, hoo, hoo!

They tried to shut my mouth, but I'll speak
They tried to break me down, but I'm here
They tried to mock me, but I laugh
They tried to stop me, but now I thrive

I can show you that I survived (survived)
Shit's not gonna hurt anymore, nice try
You all got a one-track mind
I've got eleven and more than that (more than that)

No matter what you do (what you do)
I will always be two steps ahead
Oh yeah (all the steps ahead)
You hate that I'm alive (alive)
Call me a diva if you like (diva, like)
I ain't going anywhere

(You gave me motivation)
(To do what I love to do)

You know what pisses me off?
That I almost gave them two years of my life
Two fucking years
Like, my heart got broken by one of those motherfuckers
That they, they were never there for me
You know what? Everything was wrong for them
My ideas, they, they, they never appreciated what I was doing for them
I left everything aside for them
What did I get? That I'm singing horribly, that I'm a diva
You know what? Fuck them

You forced me to go
And still you spy on me (spy on me)
Leave me the fuck alone (leave me alone)
Without you, now I'm free (now I'm free)

Everybody hurts sometimes
Everything hurts some days
But you talk shit too much (shit too much)
This time I'm gonna make you pay (make you pay)

No matter what you say (what you say)
The truth will prevail (will prevail)
No matter what you scream
My voice will be heard

You gave me motivation (motivation)
To do what I love to do (do)
You gave me inspiration (inspiration)
To chase away the blues (to chase away the blues)
And now I'll write my story (the story)
The way it's meant to be
You all lost my respect
I'm done with you, I quit

I quit, uh no, no, no

(You lost my respect)
(I'm done with you, I quit)

You gave me motivation (motivation)
To do what I love to do (oh)
You gave me inspiration
To chase away the blues (chase away the blues)
And now I'll write my story (I'm done here for you)
The way it's meant to be
You all lost my respect
I'm done with you, I quit

I'm outta here, oohh (hoo!)
I'm outta here, I'm outta here (I'm done with you, I)
I'm outta here, I'm outta here (I'm done with you, I)
I'm done with, I'm done with, I'm done with you
I quit

Hoo! Hoo, hoo!

Oohh, ooh (you gave me inspiration)

Ooh, ooh

(You gave me motivation)
(You gave me motivation)

(And now I'll write my story
The way it's meant to be
You all lost my respect
I'm done with you, I quit)

(I'm done with you, I quit)
