~#**************#~
I never believed that I would concede
~#**************#~
And let someone trample on me
~#**************#~
You strung me along, I thought I was strong
~#**************#~
But you were just gaslightin me
~#**************#~
Ive opened my eyes and counted the lies
~#**************#~
And now it is clearer to me
~#**************#~
You are just a user and an abuser
~#**************#~
Living vicariously
~#**************#~
I never believed that I would concede
~#**************#~
And get myself blown asunder
~#**************#~
You strung me along, I thought I was strong
~#**************#~
But now you have pushed me under
~#**************#~
Ive opened my eyes and counted the lies
~#**************#~
And now it is clearer to me
~#**************#~
You are just a user and an abuser
~#**************#~
And I refuse to take it
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Wont stand down, Im growing stronger
~#**************#~
Wont stand down, Im owned no longer
~#**************#~
Wont stand down, youve used me for too long
~#**************#~
Now die alone
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Now Im coming back, a counterattack
~#**************#~
Im playin you at your own game
~#**************#~
Im cutting you out, a shadow of doubt
~#**************#~
Is gonna hang over your name
~#**************#~
Ive opened my eyes, I see your disguise
~#**************#~
I will never see you the same
~#**************#~
I know how to win before you begin
~#**************#~
Ill shoot you before you take aim
~#**************#~
Now Im coming back, a counterattack
~#**************#~
A psychological war
~#**************#~
Im cutting you in, Im under your skin
~#**************#~
Now Im gonna settle the score
~#**************#~
Ive opened my eyes, I see your disguise
~#**************#~
I will never see you the same
~#**************#~
I know how to win before you begin
~#**************#~
Ill shoot you before you take aim
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Wont stand down, Im growing stronger
~#**************#~
Wont stand down, Im owned no longer
~#**************#~
Wont stand down, youve used me for too long
~#**************#~
Now die alone
~#**************#~
[Breakdown]
~#**************#~
Wont stand down
~#**************#~
Breaking out
~#**************#~
Wont stand down
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Wont stand down, Im growing stronger
~#**************#~
Wont stand down, Im owned no longer
~#**************#~
Wont stand down, youve used me for too long
~#**************#~
Now die alone
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
Wont stand down
~#**************#~
Wont stand down
