Persist

Oh, let's go on with this shit

Shadows crawl beneath my skin
Whispers of defeat calling me in
Every scar is a vow I keep

To rise again where cowards sleep
The weight drags me to the ground
But I won't let the silence drown

Broken bones, but fire inside

Shout! Let it all out!
Feeling the pain
After the world forgets your name
After we give up the ruins that stand
Of what we build up together

I hear the echoes calling my name
Not in fear, but in disdain
And I smile because I remain

Persist, despite the crows
Standing in the way as I
Persist and struggle on
Never give in, never stop
Persisting I've stripped myself
Of hatred and fear so
Persist and climb the highest peaks
Persisting, persisting

No surrender, no goodbye
Only a truth that will not die
To live and fight
We will stand and persist

Persist, despite the crows
Standing in the way as I
Persist and struggle on
Never give in, never stop
Persisting I've stripped myself
Of hatred and fear so
Persist and climb the highest peaks
Persisting, persisting
