Look, we break it down, down, down, down, down.

She break it down, down, down, down, down, down.

She got to message for the people, a brilliant mind and a clean soul.

She break it down, down, down, down. She break it down, down, down, down, down, down.

No, we break it down, down, down, down, down.
