[Verse 1]
Better far from all I see, mmh
To die fightin’ just to be free
Yeah, better far from all I see
To die fightin’ just to be free
‘Cause lyin’ still and givin’ in
Ain’t the end that’s meant for me

[Verse 2]
Don’t want no bed where I waste away
Breathin’ slow at the end of days
Don’t want no bed where I waste away
Hearin’ ‘em whisper, feelin’ afraid
I’d rather stand tall with nothin’ left
Than fade out in pity and shame

[Chorus]
You can chain my hands, but not my soul
You can beat me down, but I won’t fold
You can take my body — that’s just clay
But I’ll rise again some righteous day

[Verse 3]
Better than a cell with no way out
Where the silence fills your shout
Yeah, better than a life locked tight
Is one good fight in the open light
They can throw me in a grave so cold
But they can’t ever buy my soul

[Chorus]
You can chain my hands, but not my soul
You can beat me down, but I won’t fold
You can take my body — that’s just clay
But I’ll rise again some righteous day

[Bridge ]
I ain’t scared of dyin’ — not like this…
But I won’t live kneelin’, beggin’ to exist…
You hear me?

[Instrumental Break] 

[Final Chorus] 
You can chain my hands, but not my soul 
You can break my bones, but I stay whole 
You can take my body — bury it deep 
But my freedom’s mine — and it won’t sleep
