Testo Me Or The Music

When I hear you say, “it's either me or the music”,
It's like choosing a way to die.
If I'm faced with this, it's take it or leave it
Then I'm leavin...

I gave you rhythm and it started to beat like a heart.
And that's when a soul gets a start.
Got to singin cause I knew it would breathe in some life To my own Frankenstein.
Cause the blood that's pumpin through
Those veins is mine.
The tears that rollin, started in my eyes.

So when I hear you say, “it's either me or the music”
It's like choosing a way to die.
If I'm faced with this, it's take it or leave it
Then I know which I'm leavin behind.
“It's me or the music”. ohh
And I've got to choose.
“Take it or leave it”
Then I'm leavin, and takin the music with me.

I gave it movement just to name it a piece of me. Like a rib out of adam or eve.
When I'm dead and you only got nothing more to say.
It's my voice from the grave.
Cause the tongue that's speakin through those teeth is mine.
Whether it be haunting, I'm singin you deeper into sleep with every line.

So when I hear you say, “it's either me or the music”
It's like choosing a way to die.
If I'm faced with this, it's take it or leave it
Then I know which I'm leavin behind.
“It's me or the music”. ohh
And I've got to choose.
“Take it or leave it”
Then I'm leavin,
and takin the music with me.
I'm gone...

I gave it rhythm and it started to beat like a heart.
And that's when a soul gets a start.
Though it may not be literally flesh and bones,
I treat it as one of my own, ohh.

So when I hear you say, “it's either me or the music”
It's like choosing a way to die.
If I'm faced with this, it's take it or leave it
Then I know which I'm leavin behind.
“It's me or the music”. ohh
And I've got to choose.
“Take it or leave it”
Then I'm leavin, and takin the music with me
