TAKE IT BACK - LYRICS

THE CURSE

Tear out the pages of history
Rewrite them as we see
Anarchy in the city
Engulfing everything
Law enforcements hands are tied
They are taken by surprise
The streets are scarred with toppled cars
We won’t turn back we’ve come too far

The night is ours…we are who we are…tonight is ours

Loose your mind the curse is lifted
Put an end to superstition
Loose your mind the curse is lifted
Spreading panic through the nation

Bottles raining from the sky
Damaging the untrained eye
The concrete jungle comes alive
I’ve never seen it quite like this
Law enforcements hands are tied
They are taken by surprise
The streets are scarred with toppled cars
We won’t turn back we’ve come too far

The night is ours…we are who we are…tonight is ours

Loose your mind the curse is lifted
Put an end to superstition
Loose your mind the curse is lifted
Spreading panic through the nation

Down the street alleyway find our way to city hall
The current strong pulls us along
But we won’t be there for too long
I’m starin at you you’re starin at me
They want us all to turn around

Concrete cracks beneath our feet
Empty bottles line the street
Traffic lights lie on the ground
From when the mob ripped through town

The night is ours…we are who we are…tonight is ours

Loose your mind the curse is lifted
Put an end to superstition
Loose your mind the curse is lifted
Spreading panic through the nation

The curse is lifted

SLAVE DOG

Sent a check to pay my dues yesterday
Seems I’m stuck to work a long, long life
Thing about degradation fills life with complication
My cup is full I don’t need anymore
No need for silence this hand is dealt regardless
Shuffled through and through will fate smile on you
Cheap thrills for some but I can’t have one
The early bird has been eaten by the worm

Slave dogs are a pure breed
Try to cage us we’ll run free
So when someone tries to snatch that away….take it back

These words too heavy why lift them up
Too many people to hate no shortage of fools
Evidence incriminates trends are like termites
Eat away at our poor attention spans
These flames rise higher but I can’t get by her
Left to navigate my way around the pain
An empty stomach with a barren wallet
Gotta learn from it it won’t go away

Slave dogs are a pure breed
Try to cage us we’ll run free
So when someone tries to snatch that away….take it back

The world tries to drag you down
Spin you round and round
Bleed you till your dry
And never question why
You get what you put in
My soul is wearing thin
So take it day by day
Slave dog it all the way

Sent a check to pay my dues yesterday
Seems I’m stuck to work a long, long life
Thing about degradation fills life with complication
My cup is full I don’t need anymore

Slave dogs are a pure breed
Try to cage us we’ll run free
So when someone tries to snatch that away….take it back
