Still Standing

They breed the kids

To value what they say

Fuel a desire

For a different day

A fire burning up the truth inside

(can't consume me)

A hollow man living an empty life

(that won't be me)

No not me I won't be weak

Rip apart the thickest skin

I'll stand until the end

I'll fall, I'll rise – hold on until I die

I see beyond the simple plan

I'll rise and be a better man

There's no retreat – I can't be beat

Reject the lies

You can talk but I will not buy

Sever the lies

I always knew

The things they promised me

Would just be used

To keep me on a leash

They numb your mind

Until they sell your soul

No not me I won't be weak

Rip apart the thickest skin

I'll stand until the end

I'll fall, I'll rise – hold on until I die

I see beyond the simple plan

I'll rise and be a better man

There's no retreat – I can't be beat

Transparent world – I've seen it fall

Into the cracks – crumble the walls

And now I can't be

CAN'T BE BEAT
