Throwdown

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.

How could I ever bear witness to a man /

Who comes running down to the other side of reason /

And jumps up with a gun in his hand /

How could I ever solemnly swear to no end /

That the man that I was seeing /

The man that I saw was bleeding /

Was leading me to the promise land /

I said now hold on /

How could I ever scream to the top of my lungs /

Without making a noise I'm not taking a voice /

I ain't sounding like every other one /

How could I ever dare to close my eyes /

Open up another side /

Find time /

Just take it as it comes and leave it a surprise /

I said now hold on /

CHORUS:

No way, no how /

Music is the only way I throw down /

But I want to know now /

How could I go down with you /

How could I ever stand firm on your solid ground /

And rise up to the fear /

Never holding my ear when the roaring of the canon sounds /

You fire one shot /

It never touch my body /

How could I ever be so sincere /

We never runnin, never duckin /

From the gunman /

And the words ring so clear /

Now and they say /

Got a little story for you /

But if all the people /

They stop listening /

Then what can anybody do /

I've got a story for you /

Are you listening /

People wanna touch us /

Wanna take us /

Wanna rush us /

But they never gonna shake our sound /

They fake it and we make it /

Strip us down naked /

But can they ever break us down /

No /

CHORUS /
