Underground |
| Look at the front page, turn on the tv |
| They fire another round at you and me |
| Their guns are loaded, they’re taking aim |
| Nobody told them we’re not all the same |
| No paranoia, nobody could |
| Just write it off as being Hollywood |
| The innuendo between the lines |
| Leaves no confusion 'bout what’s on their minds |
| 1st CHORUS |
| I won’t go underground |
| I won’t turn and flee |
| I won’t bow the knee |
| I won’t go underground |
| I won’t run and hide from the rising tide |
| I won’t go underground |
| I won’t compromise what the world denies |
| I won’t go underground |
| And I’m not ashamed of the cross I’ve claimed |
| They’re taking notes on what we say |
| You know they’d like to lock us all away |
| Can’t stop the movement, can’t make it slow |
| Persecution always makes us grow |
| They got my number, it’s no surprise |
| I’m here and wearing no disguise |
| Bring on the lions and heat up the fire |
| It’s not enough to stop this man’s desire |
| 2nd CHORUS |
| I won’t go underground |
| I won’t turn and flee |
| I won’t bow the knee |
| I won’t go underground |
| I keep holding fast till the very last |
| I won’t go underground |
| I will turn my cheek, I will boldly speak |
| I won’t go underground |
| I am not ashamed of the cross I’ve claimed |
| I know the Spirit behind this force |
| It’s not surprising if you know the source |
| I pray for freedom for helpless ones |
| And I keep standing till the new day dawns |
| (CHORUS)(1ST) |
| And I won’t lay low as the hatred grows |
