Knuckles Up cover
09. Chi-Town Beat Down
Album: Knuckles Up
Artist: Flatfoot 56
         
 

Jimmy walked to his car,
attacked by a gang coming from a bar
twenty on one the fight was fair
circled around, Jimmy didn’t care
bring your boys get ready to go
swing your fist, let’s start the show
they came in strong, he held his own
swingin’ and punchin’ then sending them home
Jimmy’s fight is the fight of us all
taking life’s problems and standing tall
never give up and never give in
that’s the only way you’ll ever win
this world is bigger than the life we live
that’s why you’re all we’ve got to giveI won’t always be there to help you fight
God’s got your back both day and night


lyrics by Justin Bawinkel

Behind the Song:
"This is based on a true story about one of our friends. It describes his tale and advises that we should never take life’s problems lying down. Our response should be to run and meet them head on. The courage displayed by Jimmy is meant to hearten those who are dealing with seemingly unbeatable issues in their lives. It’s also a reminder that there is someone who has your best interest in mind." - Justin Bawinkel (Flatfoot 56)
