VERSE ONE:
Been fighting most my life
Just to find, where I'm meant to be,
Mentally, spiritually,
Searching for the man in me;
Trying to keep my pace
While these demons keep surrounding me,
Hounding me, unhallowing,
Dash but they keep following;
Living through a nightmare
Like a story told from Stephen King,
I'm barreling, down the stream
Life is just a bad dream;
Holding on to all I know
Until the missions been complete,
Read and eat, get some sleep
Tomorrow's our victory;
Play a little tune,
In my head, just for sanity,
Clarity, sincerity,
To ward off the disparity;
Keeping close my sword
And my shield, I refuse defeat,
Protect my feet, shade from heat
Knowing that they can't compete;
With my mind focused
On the goal, I will never fold,
Always bold, never take my soul
That's in God's control;
Heading down the road
With the memories, those who died before,
I won't ignore, all your sacrifices
That's worth dying for.

CHORUS:
Terrorize my life
But they won't, see no fear in me
Fear in me, fear in me
Marching towards victory;
Plotting on my death
But they won't, get the soul in me,
Soul in me, soul in me
Even when they bury me.

VERSE TWO:
Trying to find my freedom
But they trap, and they shackle me,
Deceitfully, Strategically,
Putting us in slavery;
Killing off the strong
Or the ones, who show bravery,
It's cowardly, selfishly,
Separating family;
Told me how to talk
Saying reading is no good for me,
And if I read, I will bleed
And maybe they'll kill my seed;
Some agreed
To just stay in line, and just wait our time,
Guess they're fine, with slowly dying
But that's no life for mine;
So I find
Ways to teach myself, gaining true wealth,
Putting self, up upon a shelf
Learning ways to help;
Tired of getting welts,
Protect children, and the elderly,
Follow me, let's get free
And take back or family;
Unity,
That is what they fear, just take it from me,
Stand with me, you will see
How quick they will run and flee;
To victory,
I will stand a man, til I've dealt my hand,
And rest in sand, all to my help my people
Find their promised land.

CHORUS:
Terrorize my life
But they won't, see no fear in me
Fear in me, fear in me
Marching towards victory;
Plotting on my death
But they won't, get the soul in me,
Soul in me, soul in me
Even when they bury me.

VERSE THREE:
I'm on my knees at night
Praying Lord, bless my young seed,
Many bleed, in the street
Looking for a chance to breathe;
I won't believe
Help can't be achieved, they just don't believe,
We can dream, bigger things
So they kill us on the scene;
TV screens
Won't reflect the pain, from our children slain,
Made it plain, it's no game
Scheming for our last refrain;
It's insane
How many have died, call it genocide,
When they fire, on our kids
Even when they play outside;
Hold them tight
All the memories, of lost souls tonight,
I'll stand and fight prepared to lose my life,
When the times right;
Raised through strife
So that's all I know, they won't let us grow,
We've tried before, Greenwood, Oklahoma
Burned it to the floor;
They still ignore
All of the injustice what they take us for,
If we're all, equal then why's my people
The ones mainly poor;
You won't ignore
None of your skeletons, no, not anymore,
We'll stand for more, let our voices soar,
That's worth fighting for.

CHORUS:
Terrorize my life
But they won't, see no fear in me
Fear in me, fear in me
Marching towards victory;
Plotting on my death
But they won't, get the soul in me,
Soul in me, soul in me
Even when they bury me.
