Persecution

LRC by lzh from jiangxi pingxiang

Against their holy laws

I'll do whatever it takes

I've met their kind before

We're martyrs burned at their stake

They try to dominate

I'll be the thorn in their side

They underestimate

The willpower feeding my pride

Under the hand of persecution

Defy the institution

Their words just crucify

Condemning truth that I seek

They cannot justify

The pain the havoc they wreak

I never will conform

My faith is deep to the core

I stand against reform

I'll never kneel down before

With raised fists of fire

As they conspire

I'll be defiant

Against the alliance

They will not eradicate me

Break my will or suffocate me

I will subjugate the hate

That they breed

As the church interrogates

I cannot see they supplicate me

Execute and ridicule

We're all freed

The hand of persecution

Defy the instituation
