Defiance lyrics

They will try to crush your spirit

Everyday just trying to bear it

Dire thoughts to escape this suffering

Tear this pain away

With the blade in your wrist

Something in you says you must resist

They are weak you are strong

Accept this

You must take control

You are rising

The strength inside you

With your defiance you will not be broken

This torment

Has its reasons

Your defiance takes your spirit higher

Parasites that try to hurt you

Manipulate and strip your virtue

You are the master of yourself

They will never take away

Smash through the wall of their hate

Just pawns to insecurities

They decay in sorrow and rage

Their malice fades away

You are rising

The strength inside you

With your defiance you will not be broken

This torment

Has its reasons

Your defiance takes your spirit higher

Never falter

Find your solace

Rise! Fight!

No more weakness!

Rise! Fight!

Exile torment!

Rise! Fight!

Wiping tears and blood from your face

Rise above the cowards of disgrace

Realize they're just as beaten

Overcome the fear

You must know they can't break your soul

You are strong, stronger than you know

Their power inside is fiction

Oppressor is defied

You are rising

The strength inside you

With your defiance you will not be broken

This torment

Has its reasons

Your defiance takes your spirit higher
