Showdown

Showdown

Verse 1

This is a showdown

I may be in the face of danger

Oddly enough, I'm not afraid

I know you have a problem with me

And you just said it to my face

It dealt with my race

Verse 2

This could be my basic nightmare

I have to make split decisions

I must know what I'm going to do next

In this situation, time is of the essence

I just can't run and hide

Bridge 1

It's a showdown

I'm going head to head with someone I don't like 

And who hates me

All because of the colour of my skin

May the best man win

Ready, set, go!

Chorus 1

Showdown - this is a big event

I will stand up for what I believe in

You will get a piece of my mind

No one will stop me from giving it to you

Showdown - things are unpredictable

You always have to be on your feet

I know when to back down

And when to step up to the plate

Chorus 2

Showdown - I know I can win this

I'm smart and strong enough

Showdown - it's not to be taken lightly

I know who my opponent is

Let's begin!
