I have never had an easy life 
But I'm [bad word] 
It has taught me how to stand and fight 
For what I believe in 
I guess that's just how I was raised 
I find it hard to walk away 

I will not back down 
When you push me to the wall 
Expecting me to fall 
I will not give in 
I am not afraid to fight 
For what I know is right 
I can only take so much 
And when I've had enough 
It's not in my blood to just lay down 
I will hold my ground 

I try my best to get through every day 
Without confrontation 
Stayin' out of everybody's way 
But then on occasion 
Somebody steps across the line 
And it's not too long before they find 

I will not back down 
When you push me to the wall 
Expecting me to fall 
I will not give in 
I am not afraid to fight 
For what I know is right 
I can only take so much 
And when I've had enough 
It's not in my blood to just lay down 
I will hold my ground 

I will not back down 
When you push me to the wall 
Expecting me to fall 
I will not give in 
I am not afraid to fight 
For what I know is right 
I can only take so much 
And when I've had enough 
It's not in my blood to just lay down 
I will hold my ground 

No it's not in my blood to just lay down 
I will hold my ground 
Yeah I will hold my ground 
I will hold my ground 
I will hold my ground 
I will hold my ground.
