[Verse 1] Boots on gravel Mouth tastes metal Knuckles aching Heartbeat feral Fear in the rearview Dust on my teeth Every scar on my body Spells out belief [Chorus] No retreat I burn my bridges as I run If I bleed I just baptize what I’ve begun I got nothing left to lose So I drag my doubt and beat it down the street No surrender No retreat [Verse 2] Sleep comes brittle Dreams cut shallow Truth gets heavy I still carry the shadow They said “slow down” I tore up the script Turned my last excuse Into fuel I can’t resist [Chorus] No retreat I burn my bridges as I run If I bleed I just baptize what I’ve begun I got nothing left to lose So I drag my doubt and beat it down the street No surrender No retreat [Bridge] Step by step Through the flame Through the teeth (hey!) If the ground gives way I’ll still land on my feet [Chorus] No retreat I burn my bridges as I run If I bleed I just baptize what I’ve begun I got nothing left to lose So I drag my doubt and beat it down the street No surrender No retreat (no retreat) No retreat
