Won't Stand Down

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I never believed that I would concede

And let someone trample on me

You strung me along, I thought I was strong

But you were just gaslighting me

I've opened my eyes and counted the lies

And now it is clearer to me

You are just a user and an abuser

Living vicariously

I never believed that I would concede

And get myself blown asunder

You strung me along, I thought I was strong

But now you have pushed me under

I've opened my eyes and counted the lies

And now it is clearer to me

You are just a user and an abuser

And I refuse to take it

Won't stand down, I'm growing stronger

Won't stand down, I'm owned no longer

Won't stand down, you've used me for too long

Now die alone

Now I'm coming back, a counterattack

I'm playing you at your own game

I'm cutting you out, a shadow of doubt

Is gonna hang over your name

I've opened my eyes, I see your disguise

I will never see you the same

I know how to win, before you begin

I'll shoot you before you take aim

Now I'm coming back, a counterattack

A psychological war

I'm cutting you in, I'm under your skin

Now I'm gonna settle the score

I've opened my eyes, I see your disguise

I will never see you the same

I know how to win, before you begin

I'll shoot you before you take aim

Won't stand down, I'm growing stronger

Won't stand down, I'm owned no longer

Won't stand down, you've used me for too long

Now die alone

(Won't stand down)

(Breaking out)

(Won't stand down)

Won't stand down, I'm growing stronger

Won't stand down, I'm owned no longer

Won't stand down, you've used me for too long

Now die alone

(Won't stand down)

(Won't stand down)
