Trombone Shorty - You and I (Outta This Place) lyrics

Between the shadows and the light
In the cover of the night we run
We'll sleep when we getting where we going
And feel the heat of the sun
Outside the city walls there is another goal
Run baby baby run run baby baby
Don't stop 'til the morning comes

Behind to your left and your right
Got the bullet and a bomb and a gun
You wanna feel as light as a feather
But trouble weighs in at a ton
There's gotta be a better way
You wanna be another place
Run little brother run run little brother
Don't stop 'til we where we belong

You and I you and I
Will no longer be denied
Pick me up if I should fall cause
They could never stop us all you and I
You and I let this be a battle cry
Put your fist up in the crowds cause
They could never stop us now

Don't get caught in the middle of it all
In the negativity and the hate
Cause they'll trash talk as soon
As you walk away but they smile in your face
Don't ever let it get you down
Don't ever let it turn you round
Run baby baby run run baby baby
Don't stop 'til the dark is gone

I know it's on the radio
I know you see it on your TV screen
You read it online, in the papers
And even in the magazines
Don't waste time with fittin' in
Cause you and I are different run baby baby
Run run baby girl
Don't stop 'til we get back home

You and I you and I
Will no longer be denied
Pick me up if I should fall cause
They could never stop us all you and I
You and I let this be a battle cry
Put your fist up in the crowds cause
They could never stop us now

Meet me 'round the way
So we can break through all this grey
Make a b-line for the exit sign
We gotta get outta this place
Meet me 'round the way
So we can break through all this grey
Make a b-line for the exit sign
We gotta get outta this place

You and I you and I
Will no longer be denied
Pick me up if I should fall cause
They could never stop us now you and I
You and I let this be a battle cry
Put your fist up in the crowds cause
They could never stop us now

You and I you and I
Will no longer be denied you and I
You and I let this be a battle cry
You and I you and I
Will no longer be denied you and I
You and I let this is be a battle cry
