Sworn Persistence

[lyrics: Damen] [music: Van Dingenen, Damen, Loots] [arranged by Crimson Falls] Did you really think I would give up? That I'd fuckin' break? Let all this shit get to me? You fuckin' treat me like shit, with complete disrespect Nod and obey when I'm on my knees? Guess again motherfucker, I've got the knife between my teeth Fight back, work harder and never accept defeat Dedication, devotion, a stout resistance Freedom, self-confidence A promise to myself, a fury inside Passion ‘till it ends A promise to myself, a fury inside Passion ‘till it ends sworn persistence Guess again motherfucker You think you can lay guilt upon me? - I'll kick back, ain't having that You think I'm fuckin' arrogant? - Well fuck you too, think first, then act You wanna play hide and seek? - Tough behind your screen, but in reality? You think this is the end of me? - I ain't gonna stop, I'm just getting started Guess again motherfucker, I've got the knife between my teeth Won't stop, make it work and redeem your deceit A promise to myself, a fury inside Passion ‘till it ends A promise to myself, a fury inside Passion ‘till it ends sworn persistence Did you really think I would give up? That I'd fuckin' break? Let all this shit get to me when our name is at stake? You fuckin' treat me like shit, with complete disrespect Nod and obey when I'm on my knees? Musically and lyrically this song and ‘With All Due Respect' can be considered as twin brothers; like we had ‘Abort Every Weakness&Erase All Fear' & ‘In Flanders Fields&We Are The Dead' on the previous album. As said in the previous song, when going for your goals & following your dreams not everything always goes according to plan. But you just can't let set-backs and shit-talkers get you down. Talking shit and spreading lies isn't only easy; it's worthless as well. Stand up and do something yourself! Anyway, it's a cliché but ‘what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger', so with the knife between our teeth we'll keep this show on the road for as long as we want to.
