[Verse 1] We learned the price too young A dime for every bruise A handshake full of ash And rules we never choose They dressed the cage in gold Called it a life well made But we saw through the shine The bill came to be paid [Pre-Chorus] No more No more Hands on our throat No more No more We already know [Chorus] We refuse to bow We refuse to bow Pain is not our crown Pain is not our crown Take the chains off now Take the chains off now We are standing tall We are standing tall [Verse 2] They want our names in rows Our hours, sweat, and bone They feed on our consent Then call that blood their own But every scar we wear Is proof we lived to see The door we kicked open Is wider than their greed [Pre-Chorus] No more No more Hands on our throat No more No more We already know [Chorus] We refuse to bow We refuse to bow Pain is not our crown Pain is not our crown Take the chains off now Take the chains off now We are standing tall We are standing tall [Bridge] Let them keep their throne Made of broken breath Let them count their coins We are not their debt From the ash we rise From the cut, the call If they want our silence They can watch it fall [Final Chorus] We refuse to bow We refuse to bow Pain is not our crown Pain is not our crown Take the chains off now Take the chains off now We are standing tall We are standing tall
