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 but 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.
