I Refuse
Defying Fear: The Empowering Message of 'I Refuse' by The Burroughs
Lyrics
I refuse to give into fear
I am determined not to succumb to fear.
'Cause fear ain't my master
Fear does not control or dominate me.
And I'm not leavin' this world behind
I won't abandon this world, even in challenging circumstances.
Even if it's a disaster
Even in the face of disaster, I won't give up.
I don't believe in a system
I don't have faith in a structured system.
I believe in the people
I believe in the collective power of people.
I refuse to believe that hate
I reject the idea that hatred will become the prevailing language.
Will be the new language
Expressing skepticism about the rise of hatred as a dominant force.
But I see the world for what it is
While acknowledging the world's realities, I find beauty in the midst of suffering.
And I find beauty in the anguish
Recognizing the harsh reality but finding something positive within it.
I don't believe in a system
I lack faith in a structured system.
I believe in the people
I place my trust in the inherent goodness and power of people.
I refuse to let fear
I am determined not to let fear control me.
Run my life and bring me tears
Fear will not dictate my actions or bring me to tears.
Oh and I know we can do more
I believe we have the potential to do more as a collective.
We're grabbing on not letting go
We are holding on and not giving up.
I don't believe in a system
I lack faith in a structured system.
I believe in the people
I believe in the inherent power and goodness of people.
