Never Will Hope Surrender
Unyielding Spirit: Defying Fear and Hate with Hope and Love
Lyrics
You may try to silence my voice
You may attempt to stifle my expression
You may try to steal my joy
You may try to take away my happiness
You may try to bind my hands
You may try to restrict my freedom of action
Break my wings with your demands
Destroy my potential with your requirements
All I have may be lost, whatever the cost
Despite potential losses, no matter the price
Still my heart remains free, whatever you do to my body
My inner self remains unaffected, regardless of what you do to my physical being
I say No, Never will hope surrender to fear
I assert my refusal; optimism will not yield to fear
And no level of hate can stop love from finding a way
No amount of hatred can prevent love from discovering a path
When you take life, you abuse
When you take lives, you misuse
The powers entrusted to you
Misusing the authority given to you
When you hide behind the rules
When you use regulations as a shield
Use whatever excuse that suits
Employing any justification that fits your agenda
The spirit of truth will never fade
The essence of truth will endure
On the wings of angels, we’ll find a way
Through divine support, we will discover a way
My heart will always be free
My spirit will always be liberated
Whatever you do to my body
Regardless of what you do to my physical self
I say “No,” Never will hope surrender to fear
I affirm my denial; optimism won't succumb to fear
And no level of hate can stop love from finding a way
No intensity of hatred can obstruct love's ability to find a path
Rage belies a grief, we all hide
Anger conceals an underlying sorrow, concealed by all
Whatever you’re holding too tight
Whatever you are clinging to excessively
Let it go, my friend
Release it, my companion
Let the cycle end
Allow the recurring pattern to conclude
Our future depends on your strength to say “No!”
Our future relies on your capacity to say "No!"
On the wings of angels
Supported by divine beings
We’ll find a way
We will discover a path
I won’t be afraid
I will not be fearful
The spirit of love, will never surrender
The essence of love will never yield
