"Fly"
(feat. Rihanna)

[Chorus - Rihanna:]
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
To fly
To fly

[Nicki Minaj:]
I wish today it will rain all day
Maybe that will kinda make the pain go away
Trying to forgive you for abandoning me
Praying but I think I'm still an angel away
Angel away, yeah strange in a way
Maybe that is why I chase strangers away
They got their guns out aiming at me
But I become Neo when they're aiming at me
Me, me, me against them
Me against enemies, me against friends
Somehow they both seem to become one
A sea full of sharks and they all smell blood
They start coming and I start rising
Must be surprising, I'm just surmising
I win, thrive, soar, higher, higher, higher
More fire

[Chorus - Rihanna:]
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
To fly
To fly

[Nicki Minaj:]
Everybody wanna try to box me in
Suffocating every time it locks me in
Painting their own pictures then they crop me in
But I will remain where the top begins
Cause I am not a word, I am not a line
I am not a girl that can ever be defined
I am not fly, I am levitation
I represent an entire generation
I hear their criticism loud and clear
That is how I know that the time is near
So we become alive in a time of fear
And I ain't got no motherfucking time to spare
Cry my eyes out for days upon days
Such a heavy burden placed upon me
But when you go hard your nay's become yay's
Yankee Stadium with Jay-Z and Kanye

[Chorus - Rihanna:]
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
To fly
To fly

[Bridge - Nicki Minaj:]
Get ready for it
Get ready for it
Get ready for it
I came to win
Get ready for it
Get ready for it
Get ready for it
I came to win

I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
To fly
To fly

Excuse my lack of patience

But today I'm feeling faceless

I don't know I don't know I don't know can I go on
My mind says I'm a wasting
My life ain't keeping pace
I don't know I don't know I don't know can I go on
I need a miracle

I need a sign

I need a hero to lift away
I need a miracle
But not for long
I am on my own

My own hero

I will stay strong
I'm on my own
No undertow
Could bring me down
I feel like Superman

I feel like Superman
My laugh is understated

'Cause I don't think I can fake it

I don't know I don't know I don't know can I go on
Been locked inside this cage
And I don't think I can break it
I don't know I don't know I don't know can I go on
I need a miracle but not for long
I am on my own

My own hero

I will stay strong
I am on my own
My own hero
I'm not alone
I'm on my own
No undertow
Could bring me down
I feel like Superman

I feel like Superman
I am on my own

My own hero

Will stay strong
I'm making waves oh I'm making waves
In my heart again I'm making waves
I'm making waves oh I'm making waves

In my heart again I'm making waves
I draw a line at what the people say

I'm making waves I'm making waves

I feel like Superman
I feel like Superman
yeah I'm on my own

(I'm not alone) I don't know I don't know I don't know where to go

(I am on my own, no undertow) yeah I'm on my own
(I'm not alone)
(I am on my own)
(My own hero)
(I'm not alone)
(I am on my own, no undertow) I feel I feel I feel it in my bones
(I'm not alone) I feel I feel I feel it in my soul
I feel, I feel, I feel like Superman
I need a miracle
