Analysis of Beat it!
Peace can't be still long as there's inertia,
You got your lazy coveting and planning to hurt ya,
So once you got nonthing so-called friends dessert ya,
It's you against the world,
And you're the hidden pearl,
Misfortune Don't discriminate between guy and girl,
Evil unseen forces just don't play,
Can't defy hearing voices you just obey,
Evil suggestions from the evil whisper,
Life's not a dream reality's crisper,
We reject help sent from ordinary misters,
Or give little thanks can't say thank you sister,
The good are mistreated,
But good is not defeated,
History's infinite war cannot be deleted,
They put words in your mouth and expect you eat it,
We don't need no spokesman play like Michael and beat it!
