Unvanquished
Rising Unvanquished: A Straight Edge Anthem of Resilience
Lyrics
There's no time to waste, I won't hesitate, too heavy a toll's been paid.
There's urgency as a heavy price has already been paid, no time to waste.
Their escape attempts were just another trade realized too late.
Their attempts to escape consequences were futile and realized too late.
Evaluated the cost of their lies.
Analyzed the cost incurred due to their deceitful actions.
Now no more will be lost.
No more harm or losses will occur.
All the strength it takes on reserve within to save more than myself.
There's inner strength to protect more than just oneself.
A distance waits to be crossed.
A challenge or barrier lies ahead that needs to be overcome.
It's all just begun.
Indicating the beginning of a journey or struggle.
Alive through straight edge.
Living life in adherence to the principles of straight edge.
Ten hits rain down for every step that I advance.
For every advancement, there are significant obstacles or attacks.
Smashed down again and again to rise to stand.
Despite being knocked down repeatedly, the resolve remains to stand up.
I save my tears for the living.
Reserving emotions and vulnerability for those who are alive and need support.
I hold my rage for the last day.
Holding back anger for a significant or final moment.
I save my tears for the living.
Emotional reserve for the sake of the living.
I hold my rage for the last day.
Storing rage for a later, possibly decisive, time.
A distance waits to be crossed.
Reiterating the challenge or barrier ahead.
It's all just begun.
Reaffirming the start or initiation of a struggle.
Alive through straight edge.
Living according to the values of straight edge.
Ten hits rain down for every step that I advance.
Continued struggle and facing obstacles with determination.
Smashed down again and again to rise to stand unvanquished.
Despite repeated hardships, standing undefeated and resilient.
Ten hits rain down for every step that I advance.
Similar to line 21, emphasizing facing challenges and attacks.
Smashed down again and again to rise to stand unvanquished.
Despite repeated failures, the determination remains to stand undefeated.
