tom dibb - you can't take our souls lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
so you lead a desert life
i won’t ask you how you do
there’s nothing for miles
no river wild but life’s still streaming through
tell me does it rain here during storms?
or is it just sand rubbing at the hands
of the working man?

[verse 1]
i can see that you work hard for a life
feed yourself, feed a family
watching over flock
one eye open constantly
watching for the man
with a plan to take what he can
kicking up like a sandstorm

[chorus]
no, you can’t take my home
no, this is all i’ve grown
it may not be much, but it’s mine
and i’ll defend it with my life
no, you can’t take my home

[verse 2]
city+born rug rat living in your box flat
i won’t ask you how you do
you’re living by your means
pulling at the seams
just scr+ping through
[pre+chorus]
you’rе working for another man’s dreams
you’re brеaking your back so that he might see
but you got a plan
gonna stick it to the man
and it’s playing out soon
singing

[chorus]
no, you can’t take my dreams
no, they were made by me
it may not be much, but they’re mine
and i will lead them in this life
oh, no, you can’t my dreams

[verse 3]
tell me what did you want to be
when you were a boy?
mr big man sitting in your pram
throwing out your toys
kicking up war for your greed
for your vanity
that reigns terror
over good folks with families

[pre+chorus]
how far will you push?
how long will it take before the big pure heart
of a bigger man breaks?
and he stands up and the rest all follow
and your evil little plan
well, it falls to the rubble and no!
[instrumental]

[verse 4]
so i lead a van life
need not ask me why i do
i’m living how i choose
i’m battling through
but i’m doing what i love
and yes it rains for me just like for you
but my roots are growing stronger
and branches reaching further
and i try to live true

[pre+chorus]
h+ll it’s all different strokes
we trip up and we choke
do what you want
cause we’re in the same boat
i’m no less than you
and i’m not any more
i’ll stand my ground
if he brings the war

[chorus/outro]
crying no, you can’t take me down
no, who gave you that crown?
i may not be much but i am
and you can be sure that i will stand
oh no, you can’t take me down
oh and no, you can’t take our souls
who made you a god?
we’ve got our lives
know right from wrong
and just with that
we get along
so no, you can’t take our souls
no, you can’t take our souls
