Shane Kidd:

Still here, ain’t afraid of the fight
Try to dance through the mourning as we wait for the light
Keep our pace and our peace against the hate in the street
Wishing Babylon was gone as we’re facing the beast
Not saying I’m fearless but think fear is lesser
Chose faith and courage to persevere through pressure
Cause the wise elders taught me strive for my freedom
And the Black saints keep my eyes on the kingdom
One day we won’t cry no more, die more
And the street bullets won’t fly more
Until then I stay hopeful though it’s hard to believe
And strive to press forward, disregard the fatigue
Cause I need a joy that gives strength like Olympians
The time is 4:13, I mean Philippians
We fight on despite this world being hostile
Shouting Black pride and unashamed of the gospel

Chorus:
Can’t break me down
Can’t steal my soul
Can’t take my joy
My faith is gold
Can’t shut me down
I’ll never fold
Can’t steal my joy
My faith is gold

J. Crum:

When it’s said and done and ain’t no plaques up on my wall.
My satisfaction in the fact my God was so involved.
That my impact might not be stacks but an answered call
And if this dream, I have distracts you can have it all
My heart is bleeding you hear it beating on every song
No, I ain’t leaving no my allegiance is never lost
I’m not elitist acknowledge weakness in every wrong
I’m not retreating the Lord he leads me from all along
No y’all ain’t getting me, the Lord changed my identity
Forgiven me of who I was and showed me who I’m meant to be
And now I’ve been at ease, I’m finding benefits on bended knees
Submitting every dream to him accepting all he’s bringing me
No separation, no alter or offer of alternatives
Asking for my burdens laid at his feet when I turn to him
And when I feel discouraged cause we turning to his word again,
Got fire in my bones can’t contain the words I heard within.

Chorus:
Can’t break me down
Can’t take my soul
Can’t steal my joy
My faith is gold
Can’t shut me out
I’ll never fold
Can’t steal my joy
My faith is gold

Can’t break me down
Can’t take my soul
Can’t steal my joy
My faith is gold
Can’t shut me out
I’ll never fold
Can’t steal my joy
My faith is gold
