Lyrics
Dead Yet - lyrics
You want me to bury my beliefs With each new weekly trend Change the way I think I am Make it us and them
Time to cut the ties with news and lies Stick to what I know is wrong and right What made me is what I believe
And it's here til the day I'm gone
Cause I'll be dead
When I stop thinking
Love don't mean thing
Laid to rest
If I start believing
This land came for free
I'll be good and gone
To kingdom come
When hard work don't mean sweat I was born to stand my ground
Til my gravestone is set
And ain't dead yet
You stand and preach about some things Lord where do I begin
Holy water on your tongue
Chased by whiskey sin
Maybe close your mouth Open that heart
With a little more light And a little less bark
Cause what you say is what you believe And it ain't for me no more
Cause I'll be dead
If I stop thinking
Love don't mean thing
Laid to rest
When I start believing
This land came for free
I'll be good and gone
To kingdom come
When hard work don't mean sweat I was born to stand my ground
Til my gravestone is set
And ain't dead yet
Born from the ground Came from truth
Sit back, relax
Tell ya what we're gonna do Stand up, stand tall,
You walk, that walk
Live with some heart Speak with some truth We gotta get back... ...to our roots
Cause I'll be dead
If I stop thinking
Love don't mean thing
Laid to rest
When I start believing
This land came for free
I'll be good and gone
To kingdom come
When hard work don't mean sweat I was born to stand my ground
Til my gravestone is set
Never will back down
Till these bones are laid to rest And ain't dead yet
