Don't Let The Bastards Grind You Down

(album: Open Hearts Open Minds - 2021)

Don't let the bastards grind you down, you'll be aright
Better to keep the faith and put up a good fight
Don't let the bastards bring you down, you'll be ok
Winning every little day
Every little victory

Don't let the bastards wind you up and put you down
Never let them get in through to you is what I've found
Don't let the bastards grind you down, you'll be ok
Winning every day
Every little victory

'Cos I got hope in my heart
Everyday, it's like I make a brand new start
And I got faith in my dreams
My prayer is closer, not as far as it seems

I got hope
I got hope

Don't let the bastards pass on you and write you off
Better to walk away with pride, you've had enough
Don't let the bastards brush you off, you'll be ok
You can fight another day
Win another victory

You can beat the powers that be
Yeah, you can be a star

'Cos I got hope in my heart
Every day I can make a brand new start
I got faith in my dreams
My future's closer and not as far as it seems
'Cos I got hope in my heart
Every day, it's like I make a brand new start
I got faith in my dreams
My future's brighter and not as dark as it been

I got hope
I got hope
