Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Take a hit, shoot me down, shoot me down

I will never hit the ground, hit the ground

Playing dead I'll never do

Gotta keep an eye on you

[Verse 2]

Patience is wearing thin, paper thin

Promises broke again, what a sin

But it only feeds my energy

So don't expect no sympathy

[Verse 3]

Smoke, fire, it's all going up

Don't you know I ain't afraid to shed a little blood?

Smoke, fire, flares are going up, flares are going up

[Verse 4]

Oh, won't, won't wave my white flag, no

This time I won't let go

I'd rather die

Than give up the fight, give up the fight

Give up the fight, give up the fight

[Verse 5]

Won't wave my white flag, no

Oh, I won't go down slow

I'd rather die

Than give up the fight, give up the fight

Give up the fight, give up the fight

[Verse 6]

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh

[Verse 7]

Put an X on my chest, on my chest

But I'm still standing ‘cause I won't forget

The hell on earth you put me through

I’ll save myself in spite of you

[Verse 8]

Smoke, fire, it's all going up

Don't you know I ain't afraid to shed a little blood?

Smoke, fire, flares are going up, flares are going up

[Verse 9]

Oh, won’t, won't wave my white flag, no

This time I won't let go

I'd rather die

Than give up the fight, give up the fight

Give up the fight, give up the fight

[Verse 10]

Won't wave my white flag, no

Oh, I won't go down slow

I'd rather die

Than give up the fight, give up the fight

Give up the fight, give up the fight

[Verse 11]

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh

[Verse 12]

White flag never going up, never going up no, no

White flag never going up, never going up no, no

White flag never going up, never going up no, no

[Verse 13]

Oh, won't, won’t wave my white flag, no (Wave my white flag)

This time I won't let go (Won’t let go)

I'd rather die

Than give up the fight, give up the fight

Give up the fight, give up the fight (Fight)

[Verse 14]

Won't wave my white flag, no (Wave my white flag, no)

Oh, I won't go down slow (Go down slow)

I'd rather die

Than give up the fight, give up the fight

Give up the fight, give up the fight

[Verse 15]

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh (Raise my white flag!)

[Verse 16]

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh, oh oh-oh-oh, oh (Raise my white flag, no)
