"Lay Down (Safe & Sound)" lyrics

Enemies surround 'til I'm facedown
Where I hide away, I can't be found
Bullets may fly 'round, but I lay down
I feel safe and sound on solid ground
How can I lay down-down-down-down- down-down-down?
How can I lay down-down-down-down- down-down-down?
They can chase me 'round, don't take my crown
Find me rising high, I'm merry now
Journey into wells where joy abounds
I'll be safe and sound on solid ground
How can I lay down-down-down-down- down-down-down?
How can I lay down-down-down-down- down-down-down?

Ayy, I've been havin' dreams of flyin' bullets makin' brains leak
Enemies pursuin', need to hide away, they can't reach
Can't be angry, some peace you just can't teach
When I'm put up under pressure, gotta let that pain preach
I got scars and war stories they ain't see
They threw me lemons, I bit 'em, victory tastes sweet
Goodness and mercy, I swim in, I'm in it waist-deep
He should weep, how can this man sleep? Ayy, there's levels to this legacy
My father's father said to me I'm cut from different pedigree
Bespoke my tailored specialty, He spoke
In the valley of the shadows where them weapons be, I woke
This mornin', I'll let lepers lecture me
Take up my bed and walk, hold up me head, I fall
Arrows and pharaohs and bullets flyin' from barrels
Ayy, this that Jedi talk, just check my marrow
My force feel good, I bet I'm bought

Enemies surround 'til I'm facedown
Where I hide away, I can't be found
Bullets may fly 'round, but I lay down
I feel safe and sound on solid ground
