lyrics

There we're standing on our feet and the streets are seething
but ain't no soul, there ain't no sound.
Everybody getting down to the nitty-gritty
and ain't no love, there ain't no found.

The race don't stop,
they don't look back,
and that's how it goes to living downtown.
Life goes underground.

I don't really think that cop did get paid enough
to keep on running chasing me that way throughout the town.
I found the song, but it brought no bread,
'cause the things that feed my soul are not the ones that would ever earn my keep

so the race don't stop,
they don't look back
and that's how it goes the merry-go-round,
so turn it up loud.

Cultures, clashing underground.
We grew up in a broken sound.
Silent streams through the crowds.
Lifeblood, it goes outrun.

There we're standing on our feet and the streets are seething
but ain't no soul, there ain't no sound.
Everybody getting down to the nitty-gritty
and ain't no love, there ain't no found.

The race don't stop,
they don't look back,
and that's how it goes to living downtown,
so turn it up loud.

Cultures, clashing underground.
We grew up in a broken sound.
Silent streams through the crowds.
Lifeblood, it goes outrun.

Cultures, clashing underground.
We grew up in a broken sound.
Silent streams through the crowds.
Lifeblood, it goes outrun.
Cultures, clashing underground.
We grew up in a broken sound.
Silent streams through the crowds.
Lifeblood, it goes outrun.
