Song Lyrics:
Get out of your own way, ha-ah-ah-ah. ha-ah
Get out of your own way, ha-ah-ah-ah, ha-ah
Love hurts
Now you’re the girl who’s left with no words
Your heart’s a balloon but then it bursts
It doesn’t take a canon, just a pin
Your skin’s no covering
And resistance
Love has got to fight for its existence
The enemy has armies of assistants
The amorous, the glamorous
A kiss, a fist, listen to this, oh…
Get out of your own way, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Get out of your own way, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
I can sing it to you all night, all night / Oh oh oh oh
If I could, I’d make it alright, alright / Oh oh oh
Nothing stopping you except what’s inside / Oh oh oh
I can help you but it’s your fight, your fight
Fight back
Don’t take it lying down
You got to bite back
The face of liberty’s starting to crack
She had a plan until she got a smack in the mouth
And it all went south like freedom
The slaves are looking for someone to lead ‘em
The master’s looking for someone to need him
The promised land is there for those who need it most
And Lincoln’s ghost said…
Get out of your own way, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Get out of your own way, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
I can sing it to you all night, all night / Oh oh oh oh
If I could, I’d make it alright, alright / Oh oh oh
Nothing stopping you except what’s inside / Oh oh oh
I can help you but it’s your fight, your fight…
Get out of your own way
Get out of your own way
Get out of your own way
Get out of your own way
Get out of your own way
[Kendrick Lamar:]
[Blessed are the arrogant, for theirs is the kingdom of their own company
Blessed are the superstars, for the magnificence in their light
We understand better our own insignificance
Blessed are the filthy rich, for you can only truly own what you give away…
Like your pain.]
