lyrics

My Stand
Lyrics & Music by Riley Ann

What will we call ourselves when the fire’s fled
Will there be enough of us to bury all the dead
Will we cling to battered flags of our government
I don’t know. I don’t know.

This is my stand, and I won’t back down
This fight I’m fighting isn’t just for me
This is my stand, and I won’t back down
I’ll see it through the end, wait and see

Man with a flaming torch yelling right at me
Words echo from the past, Hitler’s Germany
Is it even possible we could agree
I don’t know, I don’t know

This is my stand, and I won’t back down
This fight I’m fighting isn’t just for me
This is my stand, and I won’t back down
I’ll see it through the end, wait and see

They say war’s the only way to keep us free
A man behind a podium said it on TV
‘In God We Trust,’ or so they say, is how we lead
I don’t know, I don’t know

This is my stand, and I won’t back down
This fight I’m fighting isn’t just for me
This is my stand, and I won’t back down
I’ll see it through the end, wait and see

I’ll see it through the end, wait and see
