Stand Your Ground
Stand Your Ground: Battling Shadows in the Concrete Jungle
Lyrics
On the cold dark nights
During the cold and dark nights
On the inner-city streets
In the streets within the city
Down dark alleyways
Through dim and narrow passages
Between decrepit buildings
Amid old and rundown structures
You hear the rebel yells
One hears the cries of rebellion
Of proud fighting men
From proud warriors engaged in battle
You hear the pounding of flesh
There's the sound of physical impacts
And the stench of bloodshed
And the smell of violent conflict
You got to stand! Stand!
It's necessary to stand firm!
Stand your ground and fight
Defend your position and resist
Fight! Fight! Fight
Engage fiercely in the struggle
Blood runs through the cracks
Blood flows through the gaps
Of the concrete. Smothered in broken glass
In the concrete, covered with shattered glass
(Shattered) on those defeat
(Destroyed) in those moments of defeat
You hear your brothers in battle
You can hear your fellow fighters
Shouting out in strife
Yelling amidst conflict and struggle
And you're honored to stand among them
Feeling honored to stand together
Fighting on in stride
Continuing to fight with determination
You know never to surrender
You understand never to give up
Never give in
Never yield or submit
Your reputation is holy
Your reputation is sacred
In the world you live in
In the environment where you exist
You have your brother's respect
You have earned the respect of your comrades
And you'll never let them down
And you won't disappoint them
You always be there for them
You'll always support them
And stand your ground
And defend your position steadfastly
