Left For Death lyrics

You can live your life of ease

If you obey the hierarchy

I never could see, I never knew why

I shouldn`t stand and speak my mind

You keep your mouth shut and your ok

You get to live through one more day

But I had to say this

And I had to say that

And they stuck a knife right in my back

Closed the lid to bury me

But while there`s still

A breath of life in me

Left me for dead

But there`s no way that I

Will ever give in

I will survive

Traitors prosper, rebels die

And then they say

He was no friend of mine

Oh I never say no when I want to say yes

I never go along and vote for the obvious

Just because of my

Point of view

My expiry date`s long overdue

Oh you never can tell

What`s going on in their minds

They write your death warrant

But return your smile

While there`s still a breath in me

I will not lie down

They won`t get me

Left me for dead

There`s no way that I

Will ever give in

I will survive

I will survive

While there`s still a breath in me

I won`t lie down

They won`t get me

Left me for dead

There`s no way that I

Will ever give in

I will survive

While there`s still a breath in me

I won`t lie down

They won`t get me
