[Verse 1] They built a cage from rules I learned the crack in steel Kept my hands on the wire So I could feel what's real Told me sit, told me bend Told me swallow the pain I wore my name like a blade And I said it again [Pre-Chorus] You hear that drum in my chest? It ain't backing down One spark in the dark And I shake this ground [Chorus] I was born to raise against them Born to raise against them I don't bow, I don't break I come back, I come back I was born to raise against them Born to raise against them Take my name, take the chain I still stand, I still stand [Verse 2] Concrete under my soles Mud on my ripped-up jeans They laugh when I dream loud Then I turn up the heat Every scar got a story Every bruise got a price I don't need their permission To live my life [Pre-Chorus] You hear that drum in my chest? It ain't backing down One spark in the dark And I shake this ground [Chorus] I was born to raise against them Born to raise against them I don't bow, I don't break I come back, I come back I was born to raise against them Born to raise against them Take my name, take the chain I still stand, I still stand [Bridge] Say less Watch me go I was made for the wall Then I climbed that wall [Final Chorus] I was born to raise against them Born to raise against them I don't bow, I don't break I come back, I come back I was born to raise against them Born to raise against them Take my name, take the chain I still stand, I still stand
