Everything (Take Me Down)

The sound of noises telling you what you want to hear
It's so hard to think with all them chinese whispers in your ear
Finger on trigger just to get the message clear
Just trying to be me ain't that the reason to why we're here
Back in the day we used to work hard every nine to five
You got to do what you got to do just to stay alive
These days I gonna sit down here 'cause there ain't no use in trying
Trying to say you don't know that you can-do maybe you just lying
Did you mother ever tell you nobody else that can maybe have it but you
And you never say
Everything will always be alright
If you only just make me proud
Then I'll be happy you can, take, me, down ... tonight
They say when you got nothing then you got nothing to lose
It's easy to think like that when we are 'cause of what we chose
Good fortune come my way but I'm tired of feeling blue
I don't want excuse man when it's time to get up and move
Back in the day used to work hard every nine to five
You got to do what you got to do just to stay alive
These days I gonna sit down here 'cause there ain't no use in trying
Trying to say you don't know that you can-do maybe you just lying
Did you mother ever tell you nobody else, that can maybe have it but you
And you never say
Everything will always be alright
If you only just make me proud
Then I'll be happy you can, take, me, down ... tonight
I'm a thousand miles away, calling your game, calling your game
Maybe till broken change, nobody can, nobody can
When all of your cards are down, there's no-one to help you, no-one to blame
In the eyes of defeat, gonna rise to your feet, because you're on your own
Did you mother ever tell you nobody else that can maybe have it but you
And you never say
Everything will always be alright
If you only just make me proud
Then I'll be happy you can, take, me, down
