Lyrics

Intro

Power riff and kick drum build

(You feel that?)

This one’s for the ones who won’t shut up…

Verse

They told me “stand in line, don’t speak”

“Bow your head and turn your cheek”

But I was built from smoke and scars

Raised on riffs and battle bars

They branded us with fear and shame

But we don’t bleed out from a name

We wear our truth like blood and steel

’Cause what they fake — we always feel

Pre-chorus

This voice, this fight — they can’t contain

We light the spark, then watch it rain

Chorus

We don’t back down

We don’t break or beg

We don’t kneel to kings

We don’t sell our heads

We’re the noise they can’t erase

We’re the fire they can’t replace

We don’t back down

We rise — we rage

Verse

They tried to write us off in ink

But rebels bleed in colors they can’t sink

Tried to mute us with their rules

But we don’t play that game, we break their tools

You call us wild, unrefined

But we’re just free — and undefined

They want silence? They got war

’Cause we’re not ghosts, we’re something more

Pre-chorus

This sound, this soul — it won’t be chained

You call us lost — we call it claimed

Chorus

We don’t back down

We don’t fade or fold

We don’t break for gold

We don’t buy what’s sold

We’re the anthem you can’t drown

We’re the roots beneath your crown

We don’t back down

We fight — we hold

Bridge

(One for the beaten…)

(One for the scarred…)

(One for the truth they call too hard…)

(We don’t back…)

DOWN!

Verse

Some of us were born in fire

Some were dragged through razor wire

But all of us still stand to say:

“We’re not backing down today”

Chorus

We don’t back down

We don’t bow or bite

We don’t fade in fear

We don’t lose this fight

We’re the sound they couldn’t break

We’re the dawn that shakes the fake

We don’t back down

We roar — ignite
