Drinking from the Sun Lyrics

[Chorus: Suffa]
And we don’t (Ever stop), we won’t (Let it drop)
Lad-dah-di-da-dah
We don’t (Ever stop), and we won’t (Insult ya)
Let the vultures at the counter-culture
Now we don’t (Ever stop), and we won’t (Ever run)
Lad-dah-di-da-dah
We move mountains
And drink from the sun

[Verse 2: Pressure]
We’re timeless like “Riders on the Storm”
Survivors like the light that rises in the dawn
If crisis makes fighters of the pawns
We rise up through the night as lifeless and we’re born
Fight in my heart, suicide with my art
Till I depart I’ma write until I light up the dark
These are battle songs that lift you from your catatonic fixture
And I can walk on water but I stagger on the liquor
This ain’t a Saturday sport or matinee talk
With throw-away sentences like the magistrates’ court
Scratch that, now hear me out, attacks don’t give me doubt
I drop a powerhouse track, black the city out
And when we lose it, let the mood of music reach us
Coming through the tunes that free us, revolution through your speakers
The third rock never stops, the world turns
Eyes glued to the clock as we watch the world burn
[Chorus: Suffa]
And we don’t (Ever stop), we won’t (Let it drop)
Lad-dah-di-da-dah
We don’t (Ever stop), and we won’t (Insult ya)
Let the vultures at the counter-culture
Now we don’t (Ever stop), and we won’t (Ever run)
Lad-dah-di-da-dah
We move mountains
And drink from the sun

[Verse 3: Pressure]
Renegades whenever on centre stage
That’s my sweat upon the letters I bled on the pen and page (C’mon)
So what’s your rhyming worth? Better get a lawyer ‘cause
I could crucify your verse just to get a point across
We’ve been refining and grinding till late night
(Why?) ‘Cause even stars lose their shine in the daylight
Linked as one, just think what we’ll become
It’s begun and won’t stop till we’re drinking from the sun

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
