[Liz]
Alright, already the show goes on
alright, till the morning we dream so long
anybody ever wonder, when they would see the sun up
just remember when you come up
the show goes on!

[Liz, GEN (harmony)]
Alright, already the show goes on
alright, till the morning we dream so long
anybody ever wonder, when they would see the sun up
just remember when you come up
the show goes on!

[Isaach, Neilmatic]
There ain’t nothin that can stop ya
From all the hurt around ya
so keep your head up and let nothing ever drop ya
point to the sky, reach out to the heavens
shoot for the stars, and fight for all your blessings

Yo it’s the futuristic kid flying high in my Delorean
With futuristic beats bumpin’ loudly as I’m soaring in
The screams they just keep pourin’ in
The haters I’m ignorin’ them
East to west i shut it down no matter what the origin
I’m lookin’ hella fresh Nike kicks up on they desk
They surprised that I ain’t signed
Why I don’t got a mil yet
But I’m on my grind like daily
Tell ma look at her baby
I swear to God I’ll get it right those suits’ll have to pay me

[Miggy]
Alright, already the show goes on
alright, till the morning we dream so long
anybody ever wonder, when they would see the sun up
just remember when you come up
the show goes on!

[Miggy, Lizzy (harmony)]
Alright, already the show goes on
alright, till the morning we dream so long
anybody ever wonder, when they would see the sun up
just remember when you come up
the show goes on!

[Diverse Duo]
yo, yo, yo
I can’t believe my eyes, is everything a dream,
as the lights gleam crowd screams
while i’m up here representin’
for my people, my city, everybody that’s with me,
all I ever wanted was your presence right here vibin’ with me
us against the world, so it’s time we take a stand
Kollaboration provided the stage and put the mic inside our hands
to show that talent is endless and anybody can
do whatever you want, go let your mind expand.

Always stand tall, we aint never gunna fall,
do it for the fam cause its all from the heart,
diverse duo tryna show that love
start from the bottom is the only way to the top
rest assure yeah we aint never gunna stop
shake a can up and its only gunna pop,
thats us, wussup, boston kollaboration,
light, camera, action!

[Kris, Liz, Miggy, GEN]
So no matter what you been through
no matter what you into
no matter what you see when you look outside your window
brown grass or green grass
picket fence or barbed wire
never ever put them down
you just lift your arms higher

[Isaach, Neilmatic, Diverse Duo]
raise em till’ your arms tired
Let em’ know you’re their
That you struggling and survivin’ that you gonna persevere
Yeah, ain’t no body leavin, no body goin’ home
even if they turn the lights out the show is goin’ on!

[All] x2
