"Not Today" lyrics

"Not Today"

Yesterday, you came knockin' at my door
Sellin' me lies like every other time before
Can't believe I let you in
Fallin' for your tricks again
Yesterday your grip had me paralyzed
One foot in the grave, winner of a losin' fight
You called me by my shame
Now, I know that's not my name

I listened to you yesterday
Now, I need you to hear me say

Not today
The father of lies will not have his way
Yesterday, guilt had me diggin' my own grave
Sin had the final say

But not today (not today, no)
No, not today (not today, no)

The question is not, "Will I ever get knocked down?"
But, "Am I gonna let your games keep me on the ground?"

If you think gonna just give in
If you think I'm gonna let you win

Well, not today
The father of lies will not have his way
Yesterday, guilt had me diggin' my own grave
Sin had the final say

But not today (not today, no)
No, not today (not today, no)

I've been bought by a price
All my sins washed away
If you come at me again
You'll hear my defender say

I've been bought by a price
All my sins washed away
If you come at me again
You'll hear my defender say

I've been bought by a price
All my sins washed away
If you come at me again
You'll hear my defender say

Not today
Yeah

Not today
The father of lies will not have his way (no)
Yesterday, guilt had me diggin' my own grave (diggin' my own grave)
Sin had the final say

But not today (not today, no)
Not today, no (not today, no)
Oh, not today (not today, no)
Not today (not today, no)
