Lyrics

Album version

I won't give it away But still you wanna take it all At the end of the day Somebody's gonna take a fall Rise for a revolution Now it's done, no retraction Watch 'em make new rules to break I'm not slipping away I'm not giving up I'm not going away I'm not looking away I watch you try to take it all At the end of the day A wonder you can sleep at all Braving the evolution It's what I call inspiration Hang 'em high, an eye for an eye Are you ready to play? I'm not giving up I'm not going away We can't get enough Slipping into the fray I'm not giving up I'm not going away We don't give a fuck Slipping into the fray Raising a new religion The time is now, satisfaction Yesterday, I had my way Now I've got something to say I'm not giving up I'm not going away We can't get enough Slipping into the fray I'm not giving up I'm not going away We don't give a fuck Slipping into the fray I'm not giving up We don't give a fuck
