LYRICS
What did you say?
“It’s a matter of pay”
Is that the game we play?
Hey, hey, hey! Nay.
The invincible
Matter of principle
It’s not a matter of wealth
Rather: “Could I live with myself?”
Don’t think I would lipsync
No, don’t suppose I’d pose
… No, don’t suppose I’d pose
Anyway, not for pay
Are we all about the sellout
Pose for pay? No way!
The invincible
Matter of principle
It’s not a matter of wealth
Rather: “Could I live with myself?”
ABOUT THE SONG
This is a song about playing the halftime show at the Super Bowl without taking a knee.
You say, “Football is not suppose to be political?”
A: Racism isn’t suppose to be political. Why not take the racism out of football?
