lyrics
Backing Down
Written by: PUNCHFACE
BACKING DOWN-
Your back is to the wall and
Got nothing left to lose and
Weather you take the fall, well
That one is yours to choose and
Tell me you wanna win and
That's what you wanna get and
All I can hear is words but
You have to earn respect
Stand up and shut up
You know it's time and
You'll fall and get up
And be a man, a man
No, I wont put up
With all your whining
Look in the mirror
And see what's happening
You're telling me that you'll stand your ground
But it looks to me like you're backing down
Time to be rabbit-fierce and
Surprise pursuing dogs and
Fight for the kids to come and
You're gonna have it all and
Tell me you came to win and
That's what you're gonna get so
Keep talking to yourself man
And earn your own respect
Stand up and shut up
You know it's time and
You'll fall and get up
And be a man, a man
Don't even put up
No time for whining
Look in the mirror
And see a man again
You're telling me that you'll stand your ground
But it looks to me like you're backing down
Its time to be a man
You're telling me that you'll stand your ground
But it looks to me like you're backing down
