ain't going down

it ain't no big deal

we're all lucky to be alive

i myself don't believe in luck

or taking chances

i will survive. every move i make

every twist and every turn

you scandalize and humble me

i may be slow but i will learn. 'cause i ain't going down anymore. no i ain't going down anymore. no i ain't going down anymore. no i ain't going down anymore. if i had my way

i would probably just sit and stare. watch the t.v. or read a book

i'd have no reason to be aware

but i ain't got time

i just could not live that way. i've got to step outside myself

i've still got something left to say. channelled in my groove

part of another space and time. please allow me to introduce another very good friend of mine. some call him fear

some call him righteousness. i myself ain't clear

and you can't force me to make a guess.
