Step Up Lyrics
Come
If our own lives aren't directly affected
Then it don't need to be corrected
Our fucking gift is our ignorance
Yeah, we're really serious
As they're paying for deliverance
We shut ourselves from the outcries
We blinker ourselves from the eyesores
'Cause we know we've got greatness within us
We have greatness within us
Innovative, giving, determined
It's time for the best in us to come out
And you can find imbalance
You can destroy imbalance
And you can change your values
Step up today
Yes, solid
Now let me get one thing straight, you know what?
Sometimes I do wish apples were our currency
So your hoarded millions would rot in their vaults
And that'd teach you to lay off the assault
That you're barraging on the lands of the poor
And I know we've all got enough problems of our own
But, but they're not show stoppers sitting on our throne in a home
Heated by a life unknown to the exploited
And it's so frustrating, the fucking state we're in
If our own lives aren't directly affected
Then it don't need to be corrected
Our fucking gift is our ignorance
Yeah, we're really serious
As they're paying for deliverance
We shut ourselves from the outcries
We blinker ourselves from the eyesores
And you can find imbalance
You can destroy imbalance
And you can change your values
Step up today
And you can find imbalance
You can destroy imbalance
And you can change your values
Step up today
Why is it that so many companies
Don't deserve us and can't get rid of us?
British Empire built free trade
Opportunistic, pushing
Then it don't need to be corrected
Our fucking gift is our ignorance
Yeah, we're really serious
We shut ourselves from the outcries
We blinker ourselves from the eyesores
'Cause we know we've got greatness within us
Innovative, giving, determined
It's time for the best in us to come out
You can destroy imbalance
And you can change your values
Step up today
Sometimes I do wish apples were our currency
So your hoarded millions would rot in their vaults
And that'd teach you to lay off the assault
That you're barraging on the lands of the poor
But, but they're not show stoppers sitting on our throne in a home
Heated by a life unknown to the exploited
And it's so frustrating, the fucking state we're in
Then it don't need to be corrected
Our fucking gift is our ignorance
Yeah, we're really serious
We shut ourselves from the outcries
We blinker ourselves from the eyesores
You can destroy imbalance
And you can change your values
Step up today
You can destroy imbalance
And you can change your values
Step up today
Don't deserve us and can't get rid of us?
British Empire built free trade
Opportunistic, pushing

think the verses are:
If our own lives aren’t directly affected, then it don’t need to be corrected! Our fucking gift is our ignorance, As they’re praying for deliverance. We shutter ourselves from the outcries, We blinker ourselves from the eyesores… Coz I know WE HAVE GREATNESS WITHIN US!
I'm pretty sure it's "How fucking cute is our ignorance"
I'm pretty sure it's "How fucking cute is our ignorance"
this is a beautiful song. amazing intentions for this cd. amazingly profound. I wish more cd's would be this correct, morally, and just from plain truth. this cd kicked so much ass!
its 'Rot in their vaults' hence wishing apples were currencey. Such a clever lyric. The new album is musically and lyrically incredible.
"Our fucking gift is our ignorance" sounds correct. At first I heard "How fucking cute is our ignorance", which would be just plain wrong :D
Its definatly cute and not gift
I hear cute as well, very ironically clever aha
yeah my bad it is "how fucking cute..."
yeah my bad it is "how fucking cute..."
Well what do you know, it actually IS "How fucking cute" :D Well done, lads!
Hah, now that I listen to it and can definitely tell it's "How fucking cute", brilliant lyric.
This song is awesome, I ever imagined enter shikari writing political stuff, about time a good band bashed Imperialism.
The new album is so different, but so good!
Pretty sure that "Why is it that so many companies don't deserve us, and can't get rid of us?" is "Why is it that so many companies don't deserve us, end up ruling us?". And the final line is "Opportunistic oppression".
