(Album: Love Hope Faith - 2017)

Don't take my kindness for weakness, oh no
Don't take my silence for ignorance, oh no
So if you're into stepping over lines, stomping on my way of life
There's two things you need to know
We don't retreat, we reload

Always into giving a helping hand, but never take a handout
Shaking hands to sign a deal, that's what we're still about
Keep sweat on our brow and dirt on our plow
In hopes for making a future for the ones that we care about
It's a tradition, passed down like hand-me-down jeans with stitches
That humble background is rolling through our system, flowing like a river
Bred to be a hero and never play the victim
Never start nothing, but we will finish it
So don't be so quick to run your lips
Cause you could get slapped by the same hand that I woulda helped you with
Somebody tell 'em

Don't take my kindness for weakness
Don't take my silence for ignorance
So if you're into stepping over lines, stomping on my way of life
There's two things you need to know
We don't retreat, we reload

A lot of times we don't speak, we just listen
Silence is a virtue, try it and find out what you been missing
Although we keep our distance, I peak over the fence
And think the world needs a little John Wayne in it
Respect is earned, we say ma'am and sir
Salute those who served, cause it's well deserved
The first to call you out if you're lying
But the last to kick ya out if you're trying
We're the worst folks to those who kick us when we're down
But the best to those who've always been around
Friends for life, trespassers get shot once
Survivors, shot twice

Don't take my kindness for weakness
Don't take my silence for ignorance
So if you're into stepping over lines, stomping on my way of life
There's two things you need to know
We don't retreat, we reload
Nah we don't retreat, we reload
