This one is pretty intense...

I don't have the will,
To give in to tyrrany.
I see a rotten light,
In our simple villainy.

I can't let them win,
This iron fist pressing down.
I will not give in,
To another useless crown.

I'll fight til I die,
For what I believe.
And no one in this world,
Will take that from me.

Like a snake in a corner,
I'll bite and I'll bite
Until there's nothing left,
Until I have no life.

You won't take my fight,
You won't take my rights.
I just can't let you,
Steal the darkness from my night.

Or take my will with all your might,
Nobody's left with your foresight.
Nobody's left to give you light,
To help you destroy all that is right.

If I fight alone,
I fight alone.
Nobody needs to help me,
I'll fight with all my flesh and bone.

I'll scratch and I'll claw until my final breath.
I'll teach these men how much fight is left.
I'm willing to face my imminent death,
If it truly means justice, I'll never rest.

I can't stop fighting,
My soul's alighting.
My conscience is biting,
I can't let them continue chiding. 
When the fight comes riding,
Out of this fictional writing,

Will you be there to stand up?
Or go into hiding?
