THE SPIRIT NEVER DIES

THE SPIRIT NEVER DIES

WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON

2019

COME ON NOW

DON'T YOU THINK ITS TIME

TO GET BACK TO REAL

TELL IT LIKE IT IS

MAKE IT PART OF THE DEAL

HALF TRUTHS ARE

 JUST LIES DRESSED IN WHITE

WHAT DOES IT TAKE

TO MAKE YOU SEE THE LIGHT

I KNOW I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE

THAT SEES THEM CHIP AWAY

ONE PIECE AT A TIME

TRYING TO UNDERMINE

A MANS DIGNITY

HIS MASCULINITY

NOW WE'LL SEE WHO

HAS THE LAST LAUGH

AND WHO'S THE FOOL

FIND OUT WHO DOESN'T

PLAY BY ANY OF YOUR RULES

THERE'S A SPIRIT

ITS BEEN RISING

SINCE THE DAWN OF TIME

YOU EITHER MAN UP OR LOSE

THERE'S NO IN BETWEEN

PULL YOU THIS WAY AND THAT

AND PLACES YOU'VE NEVER SEEN

BUT OH DON'T WORRY

WE'LL PULL THROUGH

JUST LIKE WE'VE ALWAYS DONE

JUST LIKE WE ALWAYS DO

THE SPIRIT NEVER DIES 

IT LIVES INSIDE

AND WHERE THE EAGLE FLIES

MOUNTAINS RISE

CASTING SHADOWS ON THE LAKE

WAITING FOR THE STARS

THAT'S WHERE WE ARE

 THAT'S WHERE WE WILL BE

 I'LL SEE YOU

LONG BEFORE YOU SEE ME

ITS GOOD TO KNOW

IN THIS EVER CHANGING WORLD

SOME THINGS WILL NEVER CHANGE

A BOY CAN STILL

GROW UP TO BE A MAN

THAT BOY FOREVER INSIDE

WATCH HIM CHASE HIS DREAMS

WATCH HIM REALIZE 

HE CAN'T CATCH EVERY ONE

BUT HE'S STILL GONNA TRY

AND ONLY ANOTHER MAN

WOULD KNOW WHY

THE SPIRIT NEVER DIES

IT LIVES INSIDE

WHERE THE EAGLE FLIES
