Build The Beat
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.
I'm giving up, I say to myself
You've had enough
Right or maybe wrong, I'm moving on
Ready to go
No warning shots
No cheap remarks
No one to blame, yeah
So take your time and realize
It's better this way
So I just wanna tell you
You gotta build the beat back up, woo!
And just like that, town comes back
Like glass in the sand
And late night calls, tell all that I'm feelin'
She says I just wanna tell you
That I just wanna tell you
You gotta build the beat back up
Life is full of surprises
Life is make for knockin'
Everybody to the ground
Uh, time will lay it's traps and
Time will keep demandin'
Hide away up in the clouds
So I shoot in the dark now
I give my mark now
I might as well try
Why spend the day on yesterday?
Set on your pride
Oh, I feel like we all do
And I've been lost a time or two
So I just wanna tell you
You gotta build the beat back up
Let's go
Hey!
Bring it up
Bring it down
Keep it going now
Now, now, now, babe
You gotta build the beat back up
For yourself, for yourself, for yourself, yeah, yeah
You gotta build the beat back up
You gotta build the beat back up
She got to have it
You got to build it (woo!)
You got to have it
You got to build the beat back up
She got to have it
You got to build it
You got to have it
You got to build the beat back up
She got to have it
You got to build it
You got to have it
You got to build the beat back up
