Lyrics

Don't let your guard down
Just look what happened to me
Don't let your guard down
You could be a Mohammed Ali
Yeah, don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Keep both hands in front of your face
Make sure your back's straight
Keep your fists well above your waist
Violent love's an acquired taste
Keep it out of your heart
Keep it off your face
Yeah, don't let your guard down
Just look what happened to me
Don't let your guard down
You're gonna walk hard to stay free
Yo, don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
(Don't let your guard down)
(Don't let your guard down)
Keep one hand across your heart
Another in front of your mouth
Close your eyes, turn your head
Violent love can get you dead
There's a billion souls have been misled
Yo, don't let your guard down
Just look what happened to me
Yeah, don't let your guard down
You could be a Mohammed Ali
Yeah, don't let your guard down
Just look what happened now
Just look what happened to me
Yeah, don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
(Don't let your guard down)
(Don't let your guard down)
(Don't let your guard down)
