[Verse 1: Tom MacDonald]
I ain't givin' up
They can try and tear me down, but that will never be enough
'Til every bone breaks and I'm covered in blood
I'ma fight 'til my heart don't pump
Every night that the light don't come, I'ma rise like I'm the sun
I'ma grind my knife, I'ma shine my gun
I'ma dry my eyes, never bite my tongue
I'ma climb to the heights and I'll strike at dawn
I'm a soldier loaded, so devoted
Only focused on the goals I've chosen
What is most important's forward motion
I ain't never slowin' down for no more еxplosions
On a warship floatin' in the coldest ocean
Storm rollеd in and my clothes are soakin'
Y'all don't want a war when the snow starts blowin'
And my hands are frozen to the guns I'm holdin'
[Chorus: Tom MacDonald & Adam Calhoun]
I won't give up
I won't turn around
Tell them if I ain't enough
Let 'em shoot me down
And my whole life I ran from the fight
'Cause my whole life I lost every time, but
I won't give up
I ain't backin' down
[Verse 2: Adam Calhoun]
I ain't givin' up
All my time it took too much
All that grind, I kicked up dust
Left you behind like, so what?
I make moves, you ride my wave
I quit now, you just at wait
No umbrella, safety's off
I'ma have to let it rain
I'm waitin' for the door to open
On the other side with two guns loaded
Lookin' at the time like it's almost the moment
Cross that line, am I off my opponent?
Condolence, take that L and hold it
Wave that flag you folded, you know it
You drownin' in this ocean
[Chorus: Tom MacDonald & Adam Calhoun]
I won't give up
I won't turn around
Tell them if I ain't enough
Let 'em shoot me down
And my whole life I ran from the fight
'Cause my whole life I lost every time, but
I won't give up
I ain't backin' down
[Bridge: Tom MacDonald]
Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition
I ain't givin' up until they kill me or I win it
If I gotta be a soldier
I'ma be a soldier
Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition
I ain't givin' up until they kill me or I win it
If I gotta be a soldier
I'ma be a soldier
[Chorus: Tom MacDonald & Adam Calhoun]
I won't give up
I won't turn around
Tell them if I ain't enough
Let 'em shoot me down
And my whole life I ran from the fight
'Cause my whole life I lost every time, but
I won't give up
I ain't backin' down
