Our World Lyrics by Avery Watts

The Takeover

2010

[Verse 1]
Wake up
This is the real deal, not a test
Now society is calling out an S.O.S
Get down on the ground, put the earth to your ear
You feel that sound? That’s revolution you hear
Welcome to the greatest battle of all time
We’ve just officially been targeted by our own kind
The time has arrived, now were sounding the alarm
Man up, grab your loved ones, get everybody armed
Prime all the triggers and try to remain calm
As we gather all the weapons and prepare the bomb
Now we got it on lockdown, we’re ready to go
Get on the radio, send it out, let everybody know
The threat is getting closer, the sky is turning gray
It’s right on the horizon, today is the day
It’s within the city limits, rolling fast like a mist
Now we’re caught up in the midst this is it
The apocalypse
Since the very beginning of mankind
In every generation, every era in time
There has always come an instant where we must define
Who we are as a people when we must cross the line
This is that moment, now you’re gonna find
Exactly what you’re really made of inside
When it comes right down to it whatcha gonna choose
To proudly hold your ground or just lie down and lose?
The brave at the frontlines, ready for war
The enemy approaching outside the door
Dust off your voice box, time to be heard
And as the gate drops we’ll be screaming these words

[Chorus]
This is our world, our streets, our war
Our lives
This is what we fight for
Our choice
To make the wrong things right with
Our voice
We bring day to the night
This is our world, our streets, our war
Our lives
This is what we fight for
Our choice
We’re the voice of the globe
Turn up the volume so everybody knows
This is our world

[Post-Chorus]
(Ladies and gentlemen
May we please have your undivided attention
As our featured guest speaker now takes the stage)

[Verse 2]
Camaraderie is an oddity now in this age
Silence becomes violence when it’s mixed with rage
Tragedies and death, they say it’s all a phase
Society lying to me, it’s on the front page
Homicides, genocides, can’t run the streets
If you’re saggin’ and you’re flaggin’ it’s cold, you keep heat
I understand your plan, be strong not weak
My gut feelin’ is this killin’ goin’ make us obsolete
Let’s defy, not rely on negativity
We gotta makeover, takeover these communities
Analyze, capitalize, opportunities
Speaking of change ain’t strange
It all starts with me and you
So what you gonna do?
Close your eyes and glide ‘til your life is through?
We’ve got work to do
We’re gonna start, know how?
By saying these words right here, right now

[Chorus]
This is our world, our streets, our war
Our lives
This is what we fight for
Our choice
To make the wrong things right with
Our voice
We bring day to the night
This is our world, our streets, our war
Our lives
This is what we fight for
Our choice
We’re the voice of the globe
Turn up the volume so everybody knows
This is our world

[Post-Chorus]
(You gonna stand by and just let somebody run your life?
You gonna let somebody tell you what to do?
This is your world. You make the rules, you make the difference)

[Verse 3]
You think one man don’t make a difference, think again
‘Cause I just started an army picking up a pen
This begins a global collaboration
To take the whole world and make but one nation
This ain’t no imitation, what you’re hearing is elite
That’s why everything stops when you hear us speak
Oh, back to the mission at hand, we’ve got a plan
Take the message that were sending and spread it across the land
It’s in black and white, it’s been written, been read
Now let every single syllable settle into your head
As it slowly resonates from your mind to your feet
We’ll make the earth quake from stomping this beat
‘Cause if you’re hearing this right now the battle’s been won
It’s spreading my friend, the takeover has begun

[Chorus]
This is our world, our streets, our war
Our lives
This is what we fight for
Our choice
To make the wrong things right with
Our voice
We bring day to the night
This is our world, our streets, our war
Our lives
This is what we fight for
Our choice
We’re the voice of the globe
Turn up the volume so everybody knows
This is our world, our streets, our war
Our lives
This is what we fight for
Our choice
To make the wrong things right with
Our voice
We bring day to the night
This is our world, our streets, our war
Our lives
This is what we fight for
Our choice
We’re the voice of the globe
Turn up the volume so everybody knows
This is our world, our streets, our war
Our lives
This is what we fight for
Our choice
To make the wrong things right with
Our voice
We bring day to the night
This is our world, our streets, our war
Our lives
This is what we fight for
Our choice
We’re the voice of the globe
Turn up the volume so everybody knows
This is our world
