Take a moment and gather strength. Pitbull – “Bottom line – face everything and rise.”

In 2020 rapper Pitbull (Armando Christian Pérez) released I Believe That We Will Win as a response to the fear many were feeling with the Covid pandemic. In 2024, fear still surrounds our political climate and the state of our United States as the current Republican Party seems intent on dismantling democracy as we know it.

I BELIEVE THAT WE WILL WIN – lyrics, Pitbull

You know what spreads faster than any virus
Is fear
Now when it comes to fear you can either
Forget everything and run
I said I (I)
Or you can face everything and rise
I believe (I believe)
And let me tell you what I believe
I believe that (I believe that)
I believe we gonna face everything and rise
I believe that we will win (I believe that we will win)

I believe that we will win (say it)
I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win (say it)
I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win (say it)
I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win (say it)
I believe that we will win (woo!)

It’s not how you fall (hell nah)
It’s how you get back up
And what don’t kill us make us stronger
Boy, I bet that up
Take a swing at us
You better hit hard
‘Cause when we swing back (bing bang)
It’s like, “Oh God” (oh God)

It’s time to knuckle up (knuckle up)
And fight hard (fight hard)
Now let’s all buckle up (buckle up)
And fight hard (fight hard)

Que Dios bendiga a toda tu famila mi amigo
De parte Armandito vamos a darle duro a este virus

I said I, say it with me (I)
I believe, say it with me (I believe)
I believe that, say it with me (I believe that)
I believe that we will win
Let me hear you say (I believe that we will win)

I believe that we will win (say it)
I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win (say it)
I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win (say it)
I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win (say it)
I believe that we will win (woo)

We could lose the battle
But we gon’ win the war
I’m from the bottom, I’m that uncut real raw
When things get tough
That’s when we show up
That’s when we show out
That’s when we show you all (305)

It’s time to knuckle up (knuckle up)
And fight hard (fight hard)
Now let’s all buckle up (buckle up)
And fight hard (fight hard)

Que Dios bendiga a toda tu famila mi amigo
De parte Armandito vamos a darle duro a este virus

I said I, say it with me (I)
I believe, say it with me (I believe)
I believe that, say it with me (I believe that)
I believe that we will win
Let me hear you say (I believe that we will win)

I believe that we will win (say it)
I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win (say it)
I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win (say it)
I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win (say it)
I believe that we will win

Bottom line
No matter what
Face everything and rise
