gonna stand my ground won't be turned around
and I'll keep this world from draggin' me down
gonna stand my ground and I won't back down
hey baby there ain't no easy way out
hey I will stand my ground
and I won't back down
well I know what's right I got just one life
in a world that keeps on pushin' me around
but I'll stand my ground and I won't back down
