[Intro]
I'd rather die standing up, standing up, than live on my knees
No more apologies, no more apologies
I’d rather die standing up for what I believe
No more apologies, no more apologies

[Verse 1]
It's buried deep inside
The darkness feeds the light
Something's different, disconnected
Despite what you ignore
The demons at the door
Shut them out now, disconnect them all

[Chorus]
I’d rather die standing up, standing up, than live on my knees
No more apologies, no more apologies
I'd rather die standing up for what I believe
No more apologies, no more apologies

[Verse 2]
It's rooted deep inside
It's blooming, rain or shine
Something's different, reconnected
Doubted myself before
My faith is now restored
Built myself up, standing tall on trust

[Chorus]
I'd rather die standing up, standing up, than live on my knees
No more apologies, no more apologies
I'd rather die standing up for what I believe
No more apologies, no more apologies

[Post-Chorus]
The blindfold's off, I can finally see
My arms untied, I am finally free
Can’t take this voice away from me
No more apologies, no more apologies

[Bridge]
I choose the harder path, ride in a separate lane
On my grind all the time to push through all the pain
I vow to stay myself, never someone else
No playing safe, pray shit falls into place
Pick up the fucking pace

[Breakdown]
I vow to stay myself, never someone else, yeah
I vow to stay myself

[Chorus]
I’d rather die standing up, standing up, than live on my knees
No more apologies, no more apologies
I'd rather die standing up for what I believe
No more apologies, no more apologies

[Post-Chorus]
The blindfold’s off, I can finally see
My arms untied, I am finally free
Can't take this voice away from me
No more apologies, no more apologies

[Outro]
No compromise
