The Struggle Lyrics


If I could slow you down, down for an hour
I'd show you that tonight the world, the world is so small
Here is me and you, here is the mission
The distance, the race, the miles to crawl
They got us cornered in
You're afraid to leave the house
The whole place is surrounded now
This is the way, this is the way out, the way out
This is everything that's right
If they want a war, this is the struggle, the struggle
This is more then justified
This is getting out alive
And every single night i'm asking the question
What they're trying to hide, they built the fence so tall
And every single day is just like the other
Tailored and pressed, one size fits all
They got us cornered in

You're afraid to leave the house
The whole place is surrounded now
We'll watch them from the hills the night we leave
We'll light the match and slowly fall asleep
You see the fireworks will take over the street
They'll breathe the smoke and quickly fall asleep
They got us cornered in
You're afraid to leave the house
The whole place is surrounded now
This is more than just a fight
This is everything that's right
This is our last battle cry
We're getting out alive

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Roots Manuva, born Rodney Smith is a British hip-hop artist, who mixes hip hop with reggae and dub as well as electronica, and even some gospel. He grew up around Stockwell in South London. His parents were from a small village in Jamaica called Banana Hole where his father was a preacher and tailor. Spending much of his early years in poverty, this and his strict Pentecostal upbringing clearly had an influence on his music as can be seen in many of his tracks such as "Sinny Sin Sins" and "Colossal Insight".
