From The Streets' “final album” – Computers & Blues (sounds familiar..)
Mike Skinner collaborated on this song with Rob Harvey (formerly of The Music) with whom Mike subsequently formed a duo known as The D.O.T.
The format of this song seems to foreshadow some of The D.O.T’s work. Going Throug...
[Verse 1: Mike Skinner]
It’s not the size of the dog in the fight but the fight in the dog
Let surprise take a slog
And if you get a knife from behind, know you’re nice and in front
(Do it, do it)
I wouldn’t say a word 'til I’ve walked a mile in your shoes
But once a mile from you
I’ll utter what the fuck I choose, and wearing nice new shoes
(Do it, do it)
[Chorus: Rob Harvey]
If you’re going through hell
If you’re going through hell
If you’re going through hell
If you’re going through hell, keep going
[Verse 2: Mike Skinner]
Fall down five times, rise up six
Give the good news by way of fists
The mind plays tricks on the fighter who wishes
Kindness is right and both sides win (Yeah, yeah)
Push the limits of stubbornness to
Finish up above the stubbornness of silly limits (Yeah)
Run the ring around your finger
And build the ring around to bring it, bring it
[Chorus: Rob Harvey]
If you’re going through hell
If you’re going through hell
If you’re going through hell
If you’re going through hell, keep going
[Verse 3: Mike Skinner]
If you can’t join them, beat them
If you won’t ‘roid up, be friends
The joy of the fight is the fight in the boy
I’m making this up now, finding a point
Is it "If you can’t win, then run"?
The coming to fists is the fun of the thing
It’s all just lads and the normal ambiance
Fall or stab and then call an ambulance
[Bridge: Rob Harvey & Mike Skinner]
I can resist anything (Who said that?)
But temptation
Lead me not into that place
I can find it myself
I can resist anything (Who's with me?)
But temptation
Lead me not into that place
I can find it myself
(Found it)
[Verse 4: Mike Skinner]
Your hero is only ordinary
Is just a hero, a moment more than you and me
You have nothing to lose, but your chains
So it maybe might rain
And yeah, maybe slight pain
Or a daylight slaying
(Do it, do it)
At the end of the tunnel, there is always light
It just might be a train
(Beefy!)
[Chorus: Rob Harvey]
If you’re going through hell
If you’re going through hell
If you’re going through hell
If you’re going through hell, keep going
