lyrics

This is a call, an announcement, an obituary
For anyone who tries to tie our hands behind our backs
Y’must not have seen the wreckage strewn behind us from others who tried the same
‘Cause when the pressure’s on, the heat is up, we’re not ones to
Crack like glass or shatter like porcelain, like so many of those who stood in our way
But we’re just as sharp as those broken pieces

Try your best to do your worst, but
We were born for the times when things get rough
Yeah we can take you down; we can chew you up
So let us know when you’ve had enough

Y’might think you’re spitting bullets with all the words that you fire our way
But you make no sense; all we hear is [ba-ba ba-da- da-da ba-ba!]
Your condescension, your constant condemnation
Well, it don’t mean a thing to us; we’re weary of the tyranny

Try your best to do your worst, but
We were born for times when things get rough
Yeah we can take you down; we can chew you up
So let us know when you’ve had enough

Try your best to do your worst, but
We were born for times when things get rough
Yeah we can take you down; we can chew you up
So let us know when you’ve had enough

All the mud and grit, the stones and sticks, the punches and the kicks
Yeah we might spit out blood but we’re still standing

So try your best to do your worst, but
We were born for times when things get rough
Yeah we can take you down; we can chew you up
So let us know when you’ve had enough

Try your best to do your worst, but
We were born for times when things get rough
Yeah we can take you down; we can chew you up
So let us know when you’ve had enough

Try your best to do your worst, but
We were born for times when things get rough
Yeah we can take you down; we can chew you up
So let us know when you’ve had enough
