White Flag first appeared as a gentle folk ballad on the Destroy Nate Allen album Take It Easy. It has since appeared on Perfect Recipe For The Smile, RVA, and Glow In The Dark. This song has been performed at nearly every Destroy Nate Allen show since 2007.
You can purchase it via Bandcamp, or stream (the remaster) on the platform of your choosing.
Lyrics:
If it’s true that this would happen before even time began
Then I guess I’ll just surrender because I’m doing all I can
Yes in vain I’ve risen early just to stumble home too late
Ignoring all the factors that determine my fate
And I’m gonna raise the white flag
I’m gonna raise the black flag too
I’m gonna raise the white flag
And sing this song for you
You see these words they are not weapons
But these streets brew honesty
We’re all soldiers a journey We’re all pilgrims you and me
So may all fear be forgotten as the memories fade away
May the whole world join us in this song as we dance on yesterday
