Ethan Daniel Davidson - Don't Let Them Grind You Down (live) Lyrics

When you feel that every bone has been busted Been battered and beaten to dust And when any man's mettle you trusted Seems all ragged and reddened with rust And if they tell you there's nothing more to fight for So you needn't bother to even take a look around Just remember we must never surrender Don't let them grind you down

When the life that you prize has been compromised And leaves you naked as the day you were born And any time that your cries for justice arise They're only met with scoffing and scorn Keep in mind they will try to blind you And say the revolution is for sale downtown But our battle will rattle every stone from their castle So don't let them grind you down

There are those who are able to spread a rich table While we taste only their heels Who with falsehood and fable keep us subdued and stable Well it's your world that they're trying to steal But when our trumpets call all their palace walls Will crumble and tumble to the ground And if the night should be long we will sing soldier's songs Don't let them grind you down

See them there on the heights how they tremble with fright For they know that we're too strong Who with their spitting and spite shout you don't have the right Well we'll show them just where they're wrong And when our victory comes how that day will hum With the sound of crowns crashing to the ground And on every last one justice will be done So don't let them grind you down
