Stand Your Ground

(album: Battering Ram - 2015)

If you're feeling weak and near defeat
And your will to succeed slips away
Take a step no safety net
Trust in the the words that you say
No retreat never beat
We all live to fight another day

You can fight against the odds
Stop praying to the gods
When you're up against the wall
And you're waiting for the fall
Stand your ground
Stand your ground

What's the of use of speaking truth
If everything sounds like a lie
Can't they see that nothing's free
No matter how much that they try
What's the cost of futures lost
Just stand up and say what you think

If they try to put you down
Don't let them turn you 'round
Remember what is right
And don't give up the fight
Stand your ground
Stand your ground

If you've had enough and life is tough
And they don't seem to hear what you say
Make a stand, play your hand
Sometimes there's no other way
If you're giving in and you can't win
And there's only one card you can play

You can fight against you odds
Stop praying to the gods
When you're up against the wall
And you're waiting for the fall
Stand your ground
Stand your ground
