Some of us
We're hardly ever here
The rest of us
Were born to disappear
How do I stop myself from
Being just a number
How will I hold my head
To keep from going under
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
How did they find me here
What do they want from me
All of these vultures hiding
Right outside my door
I hear them whisperin'
They're tryin to ride it out
They've never come this long
Without a kill before
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
Wheels up
I got to leave this evening
I can't seem to shake these vultures
Off of my trail
Powers is made, by power being taken
So I keep on running
To protect my situation
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
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Whatcha' gonna' do about it
Whatcha' gonna' do abou it
Whatcha' gonna' do 'bout it
Don't give up, give up
Don't give up, give up, give up
Don't give up, give up
Don't give up, give up, give up
