Lyrics
Break Us Down
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We're breaking out, we're running the streets.
We're the youth, we won't take a seat.
Standing tall, standing side by side.
Never break us down, never steal our pride.
You're nothing but a mouthful of words.
You've read the book but the story's not yours.
Say you hate what I'm all about.
Nothing's changed by running your mouth.
Got to find, to find a way.
Working hard, working every day.
Got to find, to find a way.
Make a difference each and every day.
Got to find, to find a way.
Working hard, working every day.
Got to find, to find a way.
Working hard in the USA.
Youth in trouble, without a doubt.
But the spirit remains of what it's about.
This is my home, I'll keep the faith.
Never be like you, you're just a fake.
This is the land of the proud and free.
Lady Liberty lights the way for me.
Star spangled banner reflects in my eyes.
I'll make sure this dream never dies.
We're the proud: the punks, the skins.
We're the ones who always win.
We'll the draw the line and you pick the side.
Never break us down, never steal our pride.
