U2

U2 are an Irish rock band from Dublin. Formed in 1976, the group consists of Bono (vocals and guitar), The Edge (guitar, keyboards, and vocals), Adam Clayton (bass guitar), and Larry Mullen, Jr. (drums and percussion). U2's early sound was rooted in post-punk but eventually grew to incorporate influences from many genres of popular music. Throughout the group's musical pursuits, they have maintained a sound built on melodic instrumentals, highlighted by The Edge's timbrally varied guitar sounds and Bono's expressive vocals. Their lyrics, often embellished with spiritual imagery, focus on personal themes and sociopolitical concerns. more »

Get out of your own way
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Get out of your own way
Get out of your own way
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Get out of your own way

Love hurts, love is almost meaningless of words
Love is a balloon but then it bursts
All it takes to lose it is a crank with a tank
We all walk the plank
For liberty, by harboring the yolks
You're here to torture me
Again, it takes you through
It's a fraternity
An open hand she closes to a fist and a kiss
Who could resist, oh

Get out of your own way
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Get out of your own way
Whoa, oh-oh

I can sing it to you all night
If I could I'd make it alright, alright
There's nothing's stopping you except what's inside
I can help you but it's your fight

Fight back, don't take it lying down you've got to bite back
The face of liberty started to crack
She had a plan 'til she got a smack in the mouth 
And it all went south, baby
Freedom, I'm a slave who's looking for someone to lead them
My master looking for someone to head him
Promised land is there for those who need it most and Lincoln's ghost said

Get out of your own way
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Get out of your own way

I can sing it to you all night, all night
If I could I'd make it alright, alright
Nothing's stopping you except what's inside
I can help you but it's your fight, your fight

Get out of your own way
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh (oh-oh)
Get out of your own way
Get out of your own way
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Get out of your own way
