Take a few more licks, take a few more kicks
Take them for the team, so we can win
Don’t be so loud, and hide those wounds
We need the crowd, keep your voice down
---------
Do not talk back, do not clap back
Swallow your pride, so we can ride
You can suffer, so we can prosper
Just for the win, take a few more in
-----------
Don’t be so selfish, we need to win this
Why are you so sad? It’s not that bad!
You’re so unreasonable! So disagreeable!
Why can’t you ache? For all our sake?
----------
Don’t be such a victim. Just help us get the win
I know you’re right. But this ain’t our fight
It’s not a mistake. Do you know the stakes?
Yes for your rights! You know that’s right!
---------------
Stand by you? Defend you?
It’s not hypocrisy. It’s 5 d strategy!
Your pain. Is our gain!
Just take it won’t you? So I won’t have to?
------------
Take a few more licks, take a few more kicks
Just take a few more aches, a few more breaks
Take a few more jabs, a couple more stabs
We need your abusers, to become our voters
------------
