Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Some of us, we're hardly ever here

The rest of us, we're born to disappear

How do I stop myself from being just a number?

How will I hold my head to keep from going under?

[Verse 2]

Down to the wire

I wanted water but I'll walk through the fire

If this is what it takes to take me even higher

Then I'll come through

Like I do when the world keeps testing me, testing me, testing me

[Verse 3]

How did they find me and what do they want from me?

All of these vultures hiding right outside my door

I hear them whispering, they're trying to ride it out

'Cause they've never gone this long without a kill before

[Verse 4]

Down to the wire

I wanted water but I'll walk through the fire

If this is what it takes to take me even higher

Then I'll come through

Like I do when the world keeps testing me, testing me, testing me

[Verse 5]

Wheels up

I got to leave this evening

Can't seem to shake these vultures off of my trail

Power is made by power being taken

So I keep on running to protect my situation

[Verse 6]

Down to the wire

I wanted water but I'll walk through the fire

If this is what it takes to take me even higher

Then I'll come through

Like I do when the world keeps testing me, testing me

[Verse 7]

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 8]

What you gonna do about it?

What you gonna do about it?

What you gonna do about it?

[Verse 9]

Let's take it back to the home of the blues

Fairfield, Connecticut

Where the blues was born

Yeah, alright, let's get down, let's get down
