I walked through fire, slept in the rain
Carried my name like a ball and chain
They said: Girl, you're bound to break
But I got a rhythm they couldn't shake
I've been bruised, I've been burned
Had to dance for every dime I earned
But when the world said: Sit back down
I turned my stomp into a sound
Now I keep on boogin' with my fists held high
Thunder in my chest, steel in my stride
Ain't no shame in where I've been
I got a backbeat under my skin
Keep on boogin' louder than before
Feet like hammers on the floor
You want stillness? Not this soul
I'm the storm you can't control
Raised on struggle, fed on blues
Turned my pain into worn-out shoes
I don't glide, I drive through dust
Every step I take, I raise some rust
No gold crown, no safety net
But every beat I drop, you won't forget
This groove ain't cute, it's earned and torn
By a woman who's danced through every storm
I keep on boogin', battle-born and bold
Drums of thunder, heart of gold
My scars all sing, my bones all shout
I boogie what the pain can't drown out
Keep on boogin' now and always
This soul don't die, it just replays
Keep
Ain't no silence in my soul
I keep on boogin' and I take control
