Píseň: Persecution

We're watching you
Nowhere to hide
Obey the holy law
Repent for your sins
There is but one God


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


Under the hand of persecution
Defy the institution


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


I never will conform
My faith is deep to the core
I stand against reform
I'll never kneel down before


The hand of persecution
Defy the instituation


Under the hand of persecution
Defy the institution


Persecute
You defy


Execute crucify
Crucify


Persecute
You defy


Restitute crucify
Crucify


Persecute
You defy


Execute crucify
Crucify


Persecute
You defy


Crucify
You survive
