Under Duress - Converge

Don’t need a helmet if I have my heart

Don’t need your war to find peace

I don’t need to learn to live in compromise

I will never kneel and kiss your ring

The sickness spreads under duress

Compassion bends under duress

Wouldn’t need a gun if you didn’t have one

Don’t need you to serve or protect

I am not a number just patiently waiting

To enter the belly of the beast

The sickness spreads under duress

Compassion bends under duress

The delusions of control

Are rotting the root of the tree

It’s the fear that keeps you there

And it’s mine that sets me free

The delusions of control

Are rotting the root of the tree

It’s the fear that keeps you there

And it’s mine that sets me free

The sickness spreads under duress

Compassion bends under duress

Don’t need a helmet if I have my heart

Don’t need your war to find peace

I don’t need to learn to live in compromise

I will never kneel and kiss your ring
