Animal Lyrics

They held me down so long
Got me crawling like an animal
Take it all, leaving nothing for the cannibals
(Oh, oh, oh...)
But we gon' take, take, baby, we gon' take, take back

I was born on the outside (Where you from?)
94th and Fir down on the south side
See I was there back when The Forum was great
Before these stupid motherfuckers gave me something to hate, uh
Back when people used to fight for shit
Before the chosen form of protest was just typing shit
Yeah, so don't you act like you don't know me or my homies
We the ones that's comin' back for what you owe me

They held me down so long
Got me crawling like an animal
Take it all, leaving nothing for the cannibals
Can't take this from me
(Never gonna break, never gonna break, never gonna)
See the end of me
(Never gonna break, break)
I'm coming at you like an animal
(Oh, oh, oh...)
(I never wanted this, I'm coming back)
I'm coming at you like an animal
(Oh, oh, oh...)
(But we gon' take, take, baby, we gon' take, take back)
I'm coming at you like an animal

Hunt me down for the chase and take me by the neck
Lock me up in a cage and this is what you get
Another hundred enraged and we'll never forget
So meet me out on the pavement (What the fuck you expect?), uh
We're coming back for what's rightfully ours
We flood the streets and flippin' cop cars
Knock me flat on my back, I'm lookin' up at the stars
Still ain't afraid to catch a charge

They held me down so long
Got me crawling like an animal
Take it all, leaving nothing for the cannibals
Can't take this from me
(Never gonna break, never gonna break, never gonna)
See the enemy
(Never gonna break, break)
I'm coming at you like an animal

Coming for you like an animal
(I'ma take that, yeah, I'ma take that)
('Cause we deserve it, yeah, we deserve it)

They held me down so long
Got me crawling like an animal
Take it all, leaving nothing for the cannibals
Can't take this from me
(Never gonna break, never gonna break, never gonna)
See the end of me
(Never gonna break, break)
I'm coming at you like an animal
(Oh, oh, oh...)
(I never wanted this, I'm coming back)
I'm coming at you like an animal
(Oh, oh, oh...)
(But we gon' take, take, baby, we gon' take, take back)
I'm coming at you like an animal
(Oh, oh, oh...)
(I'ma take that, yeah, I'ma take that)
I'm coming at you like an animal
(Oh, oh, oh...)
('Cause we deserve that, yeah, we deserve that)
I'm coming at you like an animal
