I lost my words lingering in the dark

Hard times, don't you know we've seen them all

Ain't one to preach

Ain't one to speak on what I don't know

I lay that burden down

With one hand, we're reaching for the sky

And one hand, holding on for life

I won't raise my, I won't raise my white flag

In this life.

The moment I surrender, bury me in the ground

I'd die before you see me take a bow

You know we all got, you know we all got

You know we all got a lot to lose

I won't surrender, praise the lord my soul to take

Thank god I live to die another day

You know we all got, you know we all got

You know we all got a lot to lose

I won't raise my white flag

'till I'm through.

I found my way following a trail of hurt

'cause my name ain't no stranger to the dirt

It's been dragged around, it's been kicked around

They left it lyin' there for dead, whoa

But I defy before I lose the right

And take the time to watch the river rise

I won't raise my, I won't raise my white flag

In this life.

The moment I surrender, bury me in the ground

I'd die before you see me take a bow

You know we all got, you know we all got

You know we all got a lot to lose

I won't surrender, praise the lord my soul to take

Thank god I live to die another day

You know we all got, you know we all got

You know we all got a lot to lose

I won't raise my white flag

'till I'm through.

I won't raise my, I won't raise my

I won't raise my white flag until I'm through

Until I'm through

Yeah...

The moment I surrender, bury me in the ground

I'd die before you see me take a bow

You know we all got, you know we all got

You know we all got a lot to lose

I won't surrender, praise the lord my soul to take

Thank god I live to die another day

You know we all got, you know we all got

You know we all got a lot to lose

I won't raise my white flag, no

I won't raise my white flag 'til I'm through.

I won't raise my, I won't raise my

I won't raise my white flag until I'm through.

I won't raise my, I won't raise my

I won't raise my white flag until I'm through.
