Persecution

Lyrics

[Intro] We're watching you Nowhere to hide Obey the holy laws Repent for your sins There is but one God [Verse 1] Against their holy laws I'll do whatever it takes I've met their kind before We're martyrs burned at their stake [Verse 2] They try to dominate I'll be a thorn in their side They underestimate The willpower feeding my pride [Chorus] Under the hand of persecution Defy the institution [Verse 3] Their words just crucify Condemning truth that I seek They cannot justify The pain, the havoc they wreak [Verse 4] I never will conform My faith is deep to the core I stand against reform I'll never kneel down before [Chorus] Under the hand of persecution Defy the institution [Verse 5] With raised fists of fire As they conspire I'll be defiant Against the alliance [Bridge] They will not eradicate me Break my will or suffocate me I will subjugate the hate That they breed As the church interrogates I cannot see they supplicate me Execute and ridicule We're all freed [Instrumental Break] [Verse 6] I never will conform My faith is deep to the core I stand against reform I'll never kneel down before [Chorus] Under the hand of persecution Defy the institution Under the hand of persecution Defy the institution [Refrain] Persecute You defy Execute crucify Crucify Persecute You defy Execute crucify Crucify Persecute You defy Execute crucify Crucify [Outro] Persecute You defy You survive
