"Swords" lyrics

"Swords"

You say you love their coco (Hey)
They say they love their boko (M.I.A.)
Some say fuck all (Hey)
But I'm here to take all

Hands up
If you hear a knock on the door
Hands up
If you hear a knock on the door
Hands up
If you hear a knock on the door
I'm here to take you there because you act like you forgot

Highly explosive, ready and raw
Everything banging like we're in Bangalore
Sounds of swords cutting edge like woah
Toyota truck, pick us up, let's go!

Hands up
If you hear a knock on the door
Hands up
If you hear a knock on the door
Hands up
If you hear a knock on the door
I'm here to take you there because you act like you forgot

Loads of men can't handle this ride
When will they know we're best by their side
They keep us down and we take it in stride
Throw up your head if you've still got light
World will know 'cause we just can't hide
City will know, 'cause the money we find
Yeah it's time you better get behind
Past is past and you can't hit rewind

We them girls, say holla holla holla
We hold the world, say holla holla holla

Hands up
If you hear a knock on the door
Hands up
If you hear a knock on the door
Hands up
If you hear a knock on the door
I'm here to take you there because you act like you forgot
