 I say we fear no evolution
 Stand up musical revolution
 follow me now, when I say
 We can never stop, and we can never give, ayeah
 'cause this is how, we breathe and live
 And some of them whine, and some of them b**ch
 They cannot do it, theya, we never switch
 We do it for ourselves
 We do it for you..boom!
 If you don't like it well, I hope you do
