Eshon Burgundy
Red Rover (Remix)
[Hook: Jeremiah Bligen & Tracie Frank]
Red rover, red rover, you won't break me down

[Verse 1: Swift]
Everyday that I wait, feeling like enemy of the state
Conquering that enemy in that mirror, I see the end of me in my face
Giving them truth but they can't relate
Cause they expect for me to be fake
Just forsake, offer the chase
Pump the brakes and would I be late?
No! chance that your boy on promo
Darts aiming at the heart but he won't fold
The threat is cleared but I'd be gone if I let fear
Get me locked up in a chokehold
So I go, go-rilla
Got no time to blow smoke when I'm facing the killa
Steps ordered
Even though they wanna see my breath slaughtered
Can't erase what He built up, up
I keep my head up to the sky
Waging war against these lies
Even if that means I gotta die (gotta die)
As sure as these words are the death of me
It's not the same when the blood drips for the legacy
I'm a survivor but dying on my own
God on the throne gave me the strength to triumph over foes
As long as His glory's the linin' in the robe
They can try but they can't defeat the lion in the soul
What up
[Pre-Hook: Jeremiah Bligen & Tracie Frank]
Against 300 Spartans we will stand firm
Upon your Word, your Word stands sure
In every area in life we will wage war
Not by might but your Spirit Lord
Fight like hell, fight like Hell
Is an actual place
Though it's secured by grace
Perseverance proves faith
Through it all we’ll endure this race

[Hook]

[Verse 2: Eshon Burgundy]
You don't wanna chatter no more, cool
I'm no longer taking y'all to school
Take the bus like everybody else, I'll keep my mouth shut you make your own rules
How you gonna call us what we're not, Eshon?
Why you wanna put us in a box, Eshon?
You was the man, I wanted to shake your hand
Used to be a big fan, now I'm not, Eshon
What, you don't like when I speak my mind?
You want me to succumb to dumb, deaf and blind?
You don't see I'm shooting down our frontline?
Look around everybody dying at the same time
One in the head, one in the heart
Don't turn on your light when you come to the dark
Keep your light off, don't turn your light on
If you turn your light on they gonna think that you soft
But we ain't soft by a long shot, I might go off like an alarm clock
That's grace keeping me
I don't trust my flesh gotta keep my faith on top
I know a lot waiting to see
But that doubt ain't never the place to be
And He promised I'll never see defeat
I'm in a box but He buried me with the key
I'm throwing shots but I'm doin' it outta love
I ain't 'Pac, I ain't trying to hit 'em up
Look they ain't even gotta duck
Cause I'm poppin' that Ephesians 6:12
But I ain't never been shooting at a man
I was always clappin' at my mind set
And these like wounds from a friend
'Til they try to snatch it out of context
Salute
[Hook] (x8)

[Extended Hook: Jeremiah Bligen]
Red rover, red rover, you won't break me down
You won't break me down
You won't break me down

[Bridge: Jeremiah Bligen]
We won't faint, we won't faint
We won't faint, for You reign
We won't faint, we won't faint
We won't faint, for You reign

[Verse 3: Jeremiah Bligen]
Father they’re slaying our sisters, beheading our brothers
It's just a matter of time before they come cross this water
I know that Winter is Coming, I see the cost of the martyrs
Before the reaper come knocking, Lord get this here house in order
Separate wheat from the tares, let your remnant remain
Let our hearts fail not as we plaster your Name
They'll try to soak us with shame, abominations will reign
Until you come back to get us we're occupying your grace
Salute

[Bridge 2: Jeremiah Bligen]
We will raise, we will raise
We will raise, for You reign
We will raise, we will raise
We will raise, for You reign
[Verse 4: Jeremiah Bligen]
And we are so undeserving yet you still come to meet us
In the cool of this day you sent your love to retrieve us
Though the allure of this plight tries to appeal to our sight
We’ll keep our eyes fixed, you Lasik our life
Salute

[Bridge 3: Jeremiah Bligen]
We won't faint, we will raise
So we sing Lord You reign
We won't faint, we will raise
So we sing Lord You reign
Lord You reign, Lord You reign
Lord You reign, Lord You reign
Lord You reign, Lord You reign
Lord You reign, Lord You reign

[Outro: Jeremiah Bligen]
Red rover, red rover, you won't break me down
