Theophilus the Scholar - Break You Down lyrics

Chorus: Never let ‘em break you down (3x) Cuz if you let ‘em, they will take you down (Break you down!) Verse 1 The present presents the problem Of drama and teen mamas And babies without fathers And daughters without water ...(Thirst!) And wh and I both f****** truth at makes things worst Is a whole Obama later Inner city's still cursed The last shall be first And what's asked shall be heard Then the ma**es reverse Back to pa**ionate words The cla** is unnerved As compa**ion is served We're aghast at our past But our a**es preserve/are Verbs ...And I do it for yall We partners in this struggle No matter you big or small ...Gotta always stand tall I grew up just like you And would never let you fall ...I would never let you fail …Would never glorify or lie so I could sell Can't ever let em break you down Cuz if you let em They will break you down! Chorus: Never let ‘em break you down (3x) Cuz if you let ‘em, they will take you down (Break you down!) Verse 2: ...You wit that throw you hands up And flash your middle fingers Cuz they'll never understand us The brightest lights have to make it thru the darkest nights Twice... ...And that's the reason that the artist writes ...To help those dealing with the hardest plight To give heart to the heartless On my mama's life That's why the bird sings So he can take flight By his own wings And reach the highest heights ...And you can too Never let nobody tell you what you can't do Even if you gotta kick it like Fu Manchu And be villain Be willing Long as the earth's spinning Then you got a chance at winning A chance is what you make it A winner might fall But stands tall so he can face it Don't ever let em break you down Cuz if you let em They will break you down! Chorus: Never let ‘em break you down (3x) Cuz if you let ‘em, they will take you down (Break you down!) Bridge: They won't win Cuz I won't lose I worked too hard I paid my dues Don't ever let ‘em break you down (Cuz if you let ‘em, they will break you down!) They won't win Cuz we won't lose We worked too hard We paid our dues Can't ever let em break us down Cuz if we let em they will break us down Chorus: Never let ‘em break you down (3x) Cuz if you let ‘em, they will take you down (Break you down!)
