| Don’t take it away, don’t take it away, don’t take it away now
|
| Don’t take it away, don’t take it away, yeah
|
| I say, I wanna keep it, I say, I wanna keep it
|
| I say, I wanna keep it, and not give it up
|
| I say, I wanna keep it, and I like it just the way it is
|
| For the deaf people who will never hear this song
|
| Let’s appreciate it while it’s on
|
| For every soldier who got hit by a roadside bomb and lost an arm
|
| If you got an arm put your fuckin' arm in the sky for 'em
|
| (Don't take it away now)
|
| Lotta dead people, let’s feel alive for 'em
|
| Lotta people down low, let’s get high for 'em
|
| Lotta people gave up, so let’s try for 'em
|
| You’re blue and feeling fresher than some wintergreen
|
| Fall for the simple things, summer days, sipping Poland Spring
|
| Don’t take it away, give it to me
|
| I would go to war to keep living in peace
|
| You’re looking at a glass half empty, well that’s stupid
|
| I’ve never seen a suicide bombing or mass shootin'
|
| So fuck your format, dreary forecast
|
| I’m not for that, cop a four-pack, pedal to the floormat
|
| Life is a highway and I’mma speed on it
|
| Grass over here got a lot of green on it
|
| I learned to walk, learned to talk, learned to read on it
|
| I know it’s hard to hear in the panic
|
| With all the terrible damage
|
| And Donald’s fear and his antics
|
| Inciting fear in hispanics
|
| Don’t take what we are for granted
|
| It’s a miracle, damn it
|
| So wipe the tears from your
|
| This fucking spherical planet
|
| Are you kidding me? |
| We’re floating on a space rock
|
| Pull the titties out the tank top
|
| Not worried 'bout what I ain’t got
|
| I’m feeling so good, so don’t
|
| Don’t take it away, don’t take it away, don’t take it away now
|
| Don’t take it away, don’t take it away, yeah
|
| I say, I wanna keep it, I say, I wanna keep it
|
| I say, I wanna keep it, and not give it up
|
| I say, I wanna keep it, and I like it just the way it is
|
| You’re tryna fool us into misery
|
| When the sun shining make you think that it was blizzarding
|
| That’s some trickery
|
| Smoke and mirrors with the wizardry
|
| I’ve never heard a bomb, but I heard a bomb symphony
|
| Call off the infantry
|
| Since my infancy, been tryna smile
|
| 'Cause I- I don’t got no injuries
|
| And when it comes to positivity
|
| I’m as hardcore as the debut album of Lil Kimberly
|
| I’m glad if I can be as good a dad for my girls
|
| As my dad was to us, saving lives my material
|
| And you’re nuts like a Thanksgiving packful of squirrels
|
| If you think there’s not more good than bad in the world
|
| Time to wake up
|
| You and fear need to break up
|
| Just let the champagne shake up
|
| Bro, I might bake a cake up, and I don’t know how to bake
|
| But last year my grammy died, I’ll admit I barely cried
|
| 'Cause she lived past 75
|
| That’s a lot of years alive, so all I said was thanks
|
| It was 'cause of her I drank from the fountain of life
|
| She was my mother’s creation so I appreciate the bacon and the eggs
|
| 'Cause a lot of sperm squirm, didn’t make it to the eggs
|
| We always had food, never yearned for the bread
|
| Went to school, lotta kids couldn’t learn, get ahead
|
| This is the gift, I unwrap it every morning like it’s Christmas
|
| But it isn’t, could’ve grimaced but I didn’t, this is it
|
| What if everything you ever wanted maybe you already got it?
|
| If you see it, I applaud it (I wanna keep it)
|
| Don’t take it away, don’t take it away, don’t take it away now
|
| Don’t take it away, don’t take it away, yeah
|
| I say, I wanna keep it, I say, I wanna keep it
|
| I say, I wanna keep it, and not give it up
|
| I say, I wanna keep it, and I like it just the way it is
|
| I wanna keep it
|
| Ooh, I wouldn’t change a thing
|
| No I wouldn’t change a thing
|
| Ooh, I wouldn’t change a thing
|
| No I wouldn’t change a thing
|
| I wouldn’t change a thing
|
| No I wouldn’t change a thing
|
| I wouldn’t change a thing
|
| No, no I wouldn’t change a thing |
