ALTAR Lyrics by Written by Wolves

The Lighthouse

2023

[Verse]
I've got something I've been wanting to say, and I know
It's not black and white, it's shades of grey and I know (oh)
I gotta let go (oh)
What you've built is just designed to betray, and I know
Maybe I had thought of running away, and I know (oh)
I gotta let go (oh)
I can't be part of what you've built here, and I know
Now I know, I know, I know, I know

[Chorus]
I, I won't kneel
At your ALTAR
I'm not your soldier
It's over

I, I-I won't kneel
At your ALTAR
I'm not your soldier
It's over

[Verse]
I see the game that you've been trying to play, and I know
There's no way in hell it's ever okay, and I know (oh)
I gotta let go (oh)
What you're tryna do is make us obey, and I know
That you been gunning for complete disarray, and I know (oh)
I gotta let go (oh)
I can't be part of what you've built here, and I know
Now I know, I know, I know, I know

[Chorus]
I, I-I won't kneel
At your ALTAR
I'm not your soldier
It's over

I, I-I won't kneel
At your ALTAR
I'm not your soldiеr
It's over

[Bridge]
Here and now
I'll makе a vow
I won't be part of what this has become
I won't bow
Can't allow
To turn into the very thing we're running from
Tear it down
Take the crown
I won't stand aside and let it come undone
Here and now
I'll make a vow
I won't kneel for you now

I won't kneel
I won't kneel (I, I won't kneel)
(Know, oh, I gotta let go, oh)
I won't kneel (I, I won't kneel)
(Know, oh, I gotta let go, oh)
I can't be part of what you've built here, and I know
Now I know, I know, I know, I know
I can't be part of what you've built here, and I know
Now I know, I know, I know, I know

[Chorus]
I, I won't kneel
At your ALTAR
I'm not your soldier
It's over

I, I-I won't kneel
At your ALTAR
I'm not your soldier

I, I-I won't kneel
At your ALTAR
I'm not your soldier
It's over

I, I-I won't kneel
At your ALTAR
I'm not your soldier
It's over

I, I-I won't kneel
At your ALTAR
I'm not your soldier
It's over

I, I-I won't kneel
At your ALTAR
I'm not your soldier
It's over, it's over
It's over
