Lyrics and translation
Original
I'm gonna knock 'em down.
-Mama told me knock 'em down. -It starts with one step.
There's no telling where the wind goes next. Yeah, dumb luck is a losing bet.
I said remember that. The first cut's the deepest, first hill's the steepest.
Won't let my weakness tear me to pieces. Writing my story in blood, sweat, and tears.
It all starts here. Stop, wait, nice to know ya. When they ask me to sell my soul.
Well, I'd rather be in control and lose. Running this town in my own damn shoes.
Don't just stare, come on over. No need to be scared.
Unaffected by the weight we bear. Competition, y'all better beware. I'm gonna knock 'em down.
-Oh. -Mama told me knock 'em down.
-Oh. -I'm gonna line 'em up and knock 'em down.
Oh. We're just some regular folk been run down and broke.
But we're taking this world by storm.
And we're just getting warmed.
Like Cash and Kravitz and all five Jacksons.
Watch me smash this mic with passion. Light my fuse and watch me go. Can't be a star if you don't explode.
And when I pick up the pace, no breaks. Everybody gonna see this face. You know
I'm next in line. So you better not take your time. I'm gonna knock 'em down.
-Oh. -Mama told me knock 'em down.
-Oh. -I'm gonna line 'em up and knock 'em down.
Oh. I'm gonna knock 'em down.
-Oh. -Mama told me knock 'em down.
-Oh. -I'm gonna line 'em up and knock 'em down.
Oh. Now I walk through the valley, not a shadow of doubt.
It ain't a comeback, baby, but I'm back and in now.
Riding the same wave, ranked from main stage to basement. Hand me a mic and I'll one, two, knock 'em.
-What, what. -Knock 'em.
-What, what. -Let the dogs out.
-Woof, woof, woof.
-'Cause it's never too late to take the first step to greatness. Now take this and knock 'em down.
I'm gonna knock 'em -down. -Oh.
-Knock 'em down. -Knock 'em down.
-Knock 'em down. -Oh. I'm gonna knock 'em down.
-Oh. -Mama told me knock 'em down.
-Oh. -I'm gonna line 'em up and knock 'em down.
Oh. I'm gonna knock 'em down.
-Oh. -Mama told me knock 'em down.
-Oh. -I'm gonna line 'em up and knock 'em down.
Oh.
