Lyrics Build the Beat - The Shadowboxers

Build the Beat

I’m giving up, i sang my song
you oughta know
right or maybe wrong, i’m moving on
letting to go
no, warning shots
no cheap remarks
no one to blame
so take your time and realize
it’s better this way
so I just wanna tell you
you gotta build the beat back up
and just like that, town comes back
like glass in the sand
and late night calls, tell you all that i’m feelin'
she says I just wanna tell you
that I just wanna tell you
you gotta build the beat back up
life is full of surprises
life is make for knockin'
everybody to the ground
time will lay it’s traps and
time will keep demandin'
hide away up in the clouds
so I shoot in the dark now
I give my mark now
might as well try
why spend the day on yesterday
set on your pride
oh, I feel like we all do
and i’ve been lost a time or two
so I just wanna tell you
you gotta build the beat back up
let’s go
bring it up, bring it down
keep it going now
now, now, now babe
you gotta build the beat back up
for yourself, for yourself, for yourself
you gotta build the beat back up
yeah, yeah
you gotta build the beat back up
you got to have it
you got to build it
you got to have it
you got to build the beat back up
you got to have it
you got to build it
you got to have it
you got to build the beat back up
you got to have it
you got to build it
you got to have it
you got to build the beat back up
