Get Outta Your Own Way Get Outta Your Own Way When love hurts, now you're the girl who's left with no words Your heart's a balloon but then it bursts It doesn't take a cannon just to pin your skins Recovering and resistance Love has got to fight for its existence The enemy is armies of assistance The amorous, the glamorous, a kiss, a fist Listen to this song Get Outta Your Own Way I could sing it to you all night, all night If I could I'd make you alright, alright Nothing's stopping you except what's inside I can't help you but it's your fight, your fight Fight back, don't take it lying down You got to bite back The face of liberty's starting to crack She had a plan until she got a smack in the mouth And it all went south like freedom The slaves are looking for someone to lead them The master's looking for someone to need him The promised land is there for those who need it most And Lincoln's ghost said Get Outta Your Own Way I could sing it to you all night, all night If I could I'd make you alright, alright Nothing's stopping you except what's inside I can't help you but it's your fight, your fight Get Outta Your Own Way Get Outta Your Own Way Get Outta Your Own Way Get Outta Your Own Way Get Outta Your Own Way Blessed are the arrogant For there's the kingdom of their own company Blessed are the superstars For the magnificence in their light We understand better our own insignificance Blessed are the filthy rich For you can only truly own what you give away Like your pain
