Lyrics For Love & Hate by Michael Kiwanuka
[Verse 1]
Standing now
Calling all the people here to see the show
Calling for my demons now to let me go
I need something, give me something wonderful
I believe
She won’t take me somewhere I’m not supposed to be
You can’t steal the things that god has given me
No more pain and no more shame and misery
[Chorus]
You can’t take me down
You can’t break me down
You can’t take me down
You can’t take me down
You can’t break me down
You can’t take me down
[Verse 2]
Love and hate
How much more are we supposed to tolerate
Can’t you see there’s more to me than my mistakes
Sometimes I get this feeling – makes me hesitate
I believe
She won’t take me somewhere I’m not supposed to be
You can’t steal the things that god has given me
No more pain and no more shame and misery
[Chorus]
You can’t take me down
You can’t break me down
You can’t take me down
You can’t break me down
You can’t take me down
You can’t break me down
[Bridge]
I can see a place of trouble
And I’m on the verge
For the love of everybody
I need something more
Now I feel some days of trouble
I’m in the house of war
For the love of everybody
Look behind the wall
[Outro]
Standing now
Calling all the people here to see the show
Calling for my demons now to let me go
I need something, give me something wonderful
