Tear It Down

You could be in your living room, watching birds in the afternoon
Thinking 'bout the rest of your life
Looking over the steering wheel, tryna keep an even keel
Your foot was over the line

How many names are gonna be remembered?
How many lives will never be the same?
How many times can our future wait another day?

Tired of thinking today is the day luck runs out
I'm thinking bout tearing it down
Tired of thinking all of the time in the world won't change a thing
If we just wait for our turn
Gonna tear it down

If you stand on the other side and think it's justified
To put your neighbours in chains
Are you buying concrete walls
Gonna miss when the bottom falls
And we end up in flames

Every day is a fight to breathe
When the shade is too bright to see

I'm tired of thinking today is the day luck runs out
I'm thinking bout tearing it down
Tired of thinking all of the time in the world won't change a thing
If we just wait for our turn
Gonna tear it down

Tear it down
Tear it down
Gonna tear it down
Gonna tear it down

If you wanna fulfil our destiny we can't leave behind our dignity
We gotta stand together
Lock our arms, climb the walls, fight for equality, fight for equality

I'm tired of thinking today is the day luck runs out
I'm thinking bout tearing it down
Tired of thinking all of the time in the world won't change a thing
If we just wait for our turn
Gonna tear it down

Tired of thinking today is the day luck runs out
I'm thinking bout tearing it down
Tired of thinking all of the time in the world won't change a thing
If we just wait for our turn
Gonna tear it down
