Driving Force
Stick to Your Guns Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So here we go again.
Ignorance brought back
by popular demand.
It seems that I'll never understand. How much more
must we lose
before we turn this and around
and choose
do we dress the part
or do we have the heart?

WE ARE THE DRIVING FORCE.
You'll knock us down
we'll get back up.
WE ARE THE DRIVING FORCE.
We'll tear this down
we'll push our luck.
WE ARE THE DRIVING FORCE.
From here on out
this is for us.
WE ARE THE DRIVING FORCE.
We'll cross every line
you draw in the sand
we'll always have the upperhand.

This time around
we're fighting for something.
This time around its all or nothing.


WE ARE THE DRIVING FORCE.
You'll knock us down
we'll get back up.
WE ARE THE DRIVING FORCE.
We'll tear this down
we'll push our luck.
WE ARE THE DRIVING FORCE.

No more excuses.
We're gunna follow this
through to the very end.
No more excuses.
We won't let them take this again. TAKE US AGAIN!

You'll knock us down
we'll get back up.
We'll tear this down
we'll push our LUCK!

WE ARE THE DRIVING FORCE.
You'll knock us down
we'll get back up.
WE ARE THE DRIVING FORCE.
We'll tear this down
we'll push our luck.
WE ARE THE DRIVING FORCE.
From here on out
this is for us.
WE ARE THE DRIVING FORCE.
We'll cross every line
you draw in the sand




we'll always have the upperhand.
we'll always have the upperhand.
