Jorge Rivera-Herrans - Hold Them Down Lyrics
[ANTINUOUS]
Screw this competition, we've been here for hours
None of us can string this, we don't have the power
Screw this damn challenge, no more delays
Can't you guys see we're being played?
This is how they
[ANTINUOUS, ALL SUITORS]
Hold us down while the throne gets colder
Hold us down while we slowly age
Hold us down while the boy gets bolder
Where the hell is our pride and our rage?
Here and now, there's a chance for action
Here and now, we can take control
Here and now, burn it down to ashes
Channel the fire inside your soul
[ANTINUOUS]
Haven't you noticed who's missing?
Don't you know the prince is not around
I heard he's on a diplomatic mission
And I heard today he comes back to town, so
I say we gather near the beaches
I say we wait 'til he arrives
Then, when he docks his ship, we can breach it
Let us leave now, today we can strike and
[ANTINUOUS, SUITORS]
Hold him down 'til the boy stops shaking
Hold him down while I slit his throat
Hold him down while I slowly break his pride, his trust, his faith, and his bones
Cut him down into tiny pieces
Throw him down in the great below
When the crown wonders where the prince is
Only the ocean and I will know
[ANTINUOUS]
And when the deed is done
The queen will have no one to
Stop us from breaking her bedroom door
Stop us from taking her love and more
[ANTINUOUS, SUITORS]
And then we'll
Hold her down while her gate is open
Hold her down while I get a taste
Hold her down while I share her spoils
I will not let any part go to waste
Here and now, there's a chance for action chance for action
Here and now, we can take control take control
Here and now, burn it down to ashes take control
[ALL]
Channel the fire inside your soul and
Hold 'em down, hold 'em down
Hold 'em down, hold 'em down
