No Retreat, No Surrender

Verse 1
Stand in the place where you live
Stand in the place where you work
Stand in the place where you go to play
Beat down intimidation
Shun ignorance, dispel lies
Deception rises and falls throughout time

Verse 2
Southerners try scare tactics
While northerners try manipulation
Westerners play dumb from the start
Easterners are welcoming
Because they have ulterior motives
It's best to be stuck in the middle

Verse 3
Days are passing quicker than ever
Making time even more precious
Losing a little means losing a lot
Hope for the best, prepare for the worst
Situations are increasingly complex

Chorus 1
No retreat, no surrender
Choose to stay and fight

Chorus 2
No hiding, no giving up
Reclaim yourself and what you own
