 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Born is a human with a kung fu spine 
Equipped with a detector of what's on your mind 
You jive you shuck you bob you weave 
And when you're down you've got something up your sleeve 

And you've got it good as bad as it gets 
You make your own incisions that come with regrets 
You're in it to win it and make every minute count 
You put it all together and dish it out 

[Chorus]
Hey I know where you're from 
It makes it that much nicer to meet you 
Hey I know what you've done 
It makes it that much better to defeat you 

All that knowledge all those skills 
All the gas it takes to get up top of the hill 
And while the other try to take your spot 
You want to make them stop but you gotta make them stop 

Would you do anything whatever it takes 
Jacks in the road yeah fix the breaks 
It the instinct that's got us locked up tight 
And it's the madness that's keeping us up all night 

[Chorus] 

It's what we are It's what we are It's what we are 
Born is a human with mechanics to win 
Born is machine with a human tucked in 
You jive you shuck you jab you stick 

You're calling out for help when it gets too thick 
Your honor your honor its not me 
It's the invisible visible evil powers that be 
Untraceable insatiable having to feed 
Yeah you cry when your wounded and you laugh when they bleed 

[Chorus]
