8. Tear It Down (3:57)
A stranger's knocking
Leave me alone
Mindless persistence
Has cut me to the bone
Turned on the devil vision
It took away my breath
But I won't let it sell me
That I was "scared to death"
I'm not a robot
I'm not a clone
You build the rocket
I'll drive it home
My eyes are bleeding
Can't kill the sound
So, move the mountain
Gonna take it, gonna break it, gonna...
Tear it down
No wall's too big for me
Right now
I want my friends to see
Tear it down
All my brothers just hear me now
No motherfucker's gonna tell us how
Tear it down
No wall's too big for me
Right now
I want the world to see
There's no time for waiting around
Tear it down
Oh, tear it down
Listen
Big brother's watching
He's everywhere
But does he realize
The revolution's in the air
Are you still with me?
Are you alive?
Let's take this down stone by stone
And break it up before we die
I'm not a robot
I'm not a clone
You build the rocket
I'll drive it home
My eyes are bleeding
Can't kill the sound
So, move the mountain
Gonna take it, gonna break it, gonna...
Tear it down
No wall's too big for me
Right now
I want my friends to see
Tear it down
All my brothers just hear me now
No motherfucker's gonna tell us how
Tear it down
No wall's too big for me
Right now
I want the world to see
There's no time for waiting around
Tear it down
Tear it down
No wall's too big for me
Right now
I want my friends to see
Tear it down
All my brothers just hear me now
No motherfucker's gonna tell us how
Tear it down
No wall's too big for me
Right now
I want the world to see
There's no time for waiting around
There's no time for waiting around
Tear it down
No wall's too big for me
I want my friends to see
All my brothers just hear me now
No motherfucker's gonna tell us how
Tear it down
No wall's too big for me
Tear it down
I want the world to see, yeah
All my brothers just hear me now
No motherfucker's gonna tell us how
Tear it down
Tear it down
Tear it down
Leave me alone
Mindless persistence
Has cut me to the bone
Turned on the devil vision
It took away my breath
But I won't let it sell me
That I was "scared to death"
I'm not a robot
I'm not a clone
You build the rocket
I'll drive it home
My eyes are bleeding
Can't kill the sound
So, move the mountain
Gonna take it, gonna break it, gonna...
Tear it down
No wall's too big for me
Right now
I want my friends to see
Tear it down
All my brothers just hear me now
No motherfucker's gonna tell us how
Tear it down
No wall's too big for me
Right now
I want the world to see
There's no time for waiting around
Tear it down
Oh, tear it down
