Lyrics Don't Take Us Down - Empire Cast, Yazz, Serayah

Don't Take Us Down

They try to break us down
They always talking bout us
Making us scream and shout
Always tryna break us up
'Cause they don’t know we in love
And you the only one I trust
They know that we ain’t going down, down, down
No, babe, we only going up
We staying high
We never going low, eh, eh
Let’s stay high
Show 'em how it go
'Cause I’ma be
I’ma be your best friend, your best friend, your ride or your die
Shotgun I’ll call for the rest of my life (hey!)
I’ll be your Bonnie and you’ll be my Clyde
Just don’t let them, don’t let them take, take us down
Down, down, down, down, down
Don’t take us down, down, down, down, down
Don’t take us down, down, down, down, down
Don’t take us down
Don’t take us down
They always making stuff up
Tryna make you to believe
So you can wanna give up
And be without me
They don’t know we building an empire
And we gon' have a lotta money
They try to make me out a liar
But it’s all good, let’s run it
We staying high
We never going low, eh, eh
Let’s stay high
Show 'em how it go
'Cause I’ma be
I’ma be your best friend, your best friend, your ride or your die
Shotgun I’ll call for the rest of my life (hey!)
I’ll be your Bonnie and you’ll be my Clyde
Just don’t let them, don’t let them take, take us down
Down, down, down, down, down
Don’t take us down, down, down, down, down
Don’t take us down, down, down, down, down
Don’t take us down
Don’t take us down
