Lyrics
[Intro]
Don't tread on me
Said, don't tread on me
[Verse 1]
Liberty or death, what we so proudly hail
Once you provoke her, rattling of her tail
Never begins it, never, but once engaged...
Never surrenders, showing the fangs of rage
Said, don't tread on me
[Chorus]
So be it
Threaten no more
To secure peace is to prepare for war
So be it
Settle the score
Touch me again for the words that you will hear evermore
Don't tread on me
[Verse 2]
Love it or leave it, she with the deadly bite
Quick is the blue tongue, forked as the lighting strike
Shining with brightness, always on surveillance
(The eyes, they never close) Emblem of vigilance
Said, don't tread on me
[Chorus]
So be it
Threaten no more
To secure peace is to prepare for war
So be it
Settle the score
Touch me again for the words that you will hear evermore
Don't tread on me
[Chorus]
So be it
Threaten no more
To secure peace is to prepare for war
[Verse 3]
Liberty or death, what we so proudly hail
Once you provoke her, rattling of her tail
[Chorus]
So be it
Threaten no more
To secure peace is to prepare for war
So be it
Settle the score
Touch me again for the words that you will hear evermore
Don't tread on me
