Lyrics
0:21Some of us We're hardly ever here
0:26The rest of us we're born to disappear
0:30How do I stop myself from
0:32Being just a number
0:35How will I hold my head
0:37To keep from going under
0:40Down to the wire
0:42I wanted water
0:44But I'll walk through the fire
0:47If this is what it takes
0:49To take me even higher
0:52Then I'll come through
0:54Like I do
0:55When the world keeps
0:57Testing me testing me testing me
1:10How did they find me here
1:12What do they want from me
1:14All of these vultures hiding
1:17Right outside my door
1:19I hear them whisperin
1:22They're tryin to ride it out
1:24Cause they've never gone this long
1:26Without a kill before
1:29Down to the wire
1:32I wanted water but
1:34I'll walk through the fire
1:36If this is what it takes
1:38To take me even higher
1:41Then I'll come through
1:43Like I do
1:44When the world keeps
1:46Testing me testing me testing me
2:28Wheels up
2:30I got to leave this evening
2:33Can't seem to shake these vultures
2:35Off of my trail
2:38Power is made by power being taken
2:43So I keep on running
2:44To protect my situation
2:48Down to the wire
2:50I wanted water but
2:52I'll walk through the fire
2:55If this is what it takes
2:57To take me even higher
3:00Then I'll come through
3:01Like I do
3:03When the world keeps
3:04Testing me testing me
3:07Oooooooooooo
3:12Oooooooooooo
3:17Oooooooooooo
3:22Oooooooooooo
3:27Whatcha gonna do about it
3:30Whatcha gonna do about it
3:32Whatcha gonna do about it
Some of us We're hardly ever here The rest of us we're born to disappear How do I stop myself from Being just a number How will I hold my head To keep from going under Down to the wire I wanted water But I'll walk through the fire If this is what it takes To take me even higher Then I'll come through Like I do When the world keeps Testing me testing me testing me How did they find me here What do they want from me All of these vultures hiding Right outside my door I hear them whisperin They're tryin to ride it out Cause they've never gone this long Without a kill before Down to the wire I wanted water but I'll walk through the fire If this is what it takes To take me even higher Then I'll come through Like I do When the world keeps Testing me testing me testing me Wheels up I got to leave this evening Can't seem to shake these vultures Off of my trail Power is made by power being taken So I keep on running To protect my situation Down to the wire I wanted water but I'll walk through the fire If this is what it takes To take me even higher Then I'll come through Like I do When the world keeps Testing me testing me Oooooooooooo Oooooooooooo Oooooooooooo Oooooooooooo Whatcha gonna do about it Whatcha gonna do about it Whatcha gonna do about it
