You can't let me run away and hide
I've got to stay
Step aside
You won't let me run away and hide
I've got to stay
Step aside
I have done no one no wrong
In this place I know I do belong
I am just another man
Trying to survive on this land
But you are in my life
You making war and strife
You can't let me run away and hide
I've got to stay
Step aside
You can't let me run away and hide
I've got to stay
Step aside
I won't run away from you
No matter what, what you say or do
I'll fight you each and every day
Until I get you out of my way
I've got to get you out of my life
I won't let you hurt my pride
You can't let me run away and hide
I've got to stay
Step aside
You won't let me run away and hide
I've got to stay
Step aside
I won't run away from you
No matter what you say or do
I'll fight you each and every day
Until I get you out of my way
I've got to get you out of my life
I won't let you hurt my pride
You can't let me run away and hide
I've got to stay
Step aside
You can't let me run away and hide
I've got to stay
Step aside
You won't let me run away and hide
I've got to stay
Step aside
