TobyMac - The Elements lyrics

I lace the boots up
It's straight to the door
'Cause this is worth fightin' for
I get my head right, the heart's gotta follow
Whisper a prayer like there ain't no tomorrow
Take a breath, and I exhale slow
I wasn't made for this kind of cold
This ain't the kind of place
That you wanna know
These are the elements, I'm telling you, bro
This world is up in my grill
This world is shootin' to kill
This world always gotta be stealin' my heart
This world always tryna rip my family apart

I'll fight the elements
I'll fight the elements
I got spirit, I got faith
I might bend, but I won't break
I'll fight the elements

And I'ma go down swingin' if I go down
I'ma go down swingin' if I go down
I'ma go down swingin' if I go down
I'ma go down swingin' if I go down

This ain't our home, nah, not even close
They camouflage like we fightin' some ghost
You start to doubt everything that you know
I feel the heat, and it's startin' to show
They try to break us, break us
Make us wanna give in
Lay down our arms, Novocain us again
Lay down a fight I could never relent
And I'ma take it all the way to the end

I'll fight the elements
(And I'ma take it all the way to the end)
I'll fight the elements
I got spirit, I got faith
I might bend, but I won't break
I'll fight the elements

And I'ma go down swingin' if I go down
I'ma go down swingin' if I go down
I'ma go down swingin' if I go down
I'ma go down swingin' if I go down let's go

Elements, the el-elements
Elements, the el-el-elements
Elements, the el-elements
Elements, the el-el-el-el-
Elements, the el-elements
Elements, the el-el-elements
Elements, the el-elements
Elements, the el-elements

Father, God, let me see it for what it is
This ain't neutral we're up against
These elements push me to the fence
And then I end up on top of it
If I'm not careful
To recognize what is pushin' in
Open my eyes to these elements
Stand up and rise to these elements
I'm willing to fight, willing to fight
The elements

Elements, the el-elements
(I'll fight the elements)
Elements, the el-el-elements
(I'll fight the elements)
Elements, the el-elements
(I'll fight the elements)
Elements, the el-el-el-el- (Let's go)
Elements, the el-elements
(I'll fight the elements)
Elements, the el-el-elements
(I'll fight the elements)
Elements, the el-elements
(I'll fight the elements)
Elements, the el-el-el-el-el-el-el-el-

Elements, the el-elements
(I'll fight the elements)
Elements, the el-el-elements
(I'll fight the elements)
Elements, the el-elements
Elements, the el-elements
