I Ain't Running Away (feat. Madeline Magnon)

Forgive me lord cause I know what I do

Seems to me that the world won't change

And it's killing me to play the fool

We are set in times where they realize that we will not be used

And it's the beast in me

Oh the thief in me

That will steal back our taken truth

Of a forgotten youth

We will not lose

And I say

It's the killing time, the spilling time

As the blood drips down my face

As we align, oh to return in kind

The pain that we've misplaced

And I will not be moved

From the place I stand

When it hits the fan

And they take our land

And we scream

When chips are down and they count me out

No I won't run away, I won't run away

When they come around

And they lay me down

I won't run away, no I won't run away

When they say it's over

And they look us over

I won't run away, no I won't run away

It's the giving time, oh the trying times

Time to make man claim his worth

Cause they steal me, and instill in me

I've been down since my own birth

But I, no I will not be moved

From the place I stand

When it hits the fan

And they take our land

And we scream

When chips are down and they count me out

No I won't run away, I won't run away

When they come around

And they lay me down

I won't run away, no I won't run away

When they say it's over

And they look us over

I won't run away, no I won't run away

When chips are down and they count me out

No I won't run away, I won't run away

When they come around

And they lay me down

I won't run away, no I won't run away

When they say it's over

And they look us over

I won't run away, no I won't run away
