Why do you lie, why do you cheat
Why do you try and deceive
Always twisting around what you say
You better change your foolish ways
This world does not need
Always finding new friends to betray
Payback now

Always living surrounded by lies

Honesty's not for you
Your actions will end in your demise

Reason to believe any other word to use
for what you've done to me
In the end you'll be the one to lose
In the end you'll be the one to lose
I entrusted you - wrong

In the end you'll be the one to lose
Life, a losing battle
Existence I abhor
Lives, condemned by sins
of those who lived before

Distraught, depressed
World of confusion
Victory of death
The only solution
Every day is agony
My thoughts are so unclear
To face my harsh reality
There's no one I endear
Born at the bottom
Struggle to find a way
You can feel the power
It's growing every day
Fight for a change,
Can't wait until tomorrow
Make a difference on this day
and al the rest will follow

Blue blood
Working class survives
Don't forget your libertyBlue Blood
Working class survived
That's how we came to beBlue blood
working class survives
Don't forget your liberty
Chains must be broken if ever to be free
Blue collar workers screaming "Liberty"
Respect, pride and honor
is what we want to see
Tall proud working class
from sea to shining sea
Seeds are sown, within own,
We shall not digress
Cries of justice can't be suppressed
Across the land the wheels are now in motion
Calloussed hands create a just commotion
It shouldn't be
a working class surpressed
We would rise above
with strength to contest
Our homeland will shine
to that I will attest
With blue collar pride
We'll show that America is the best

The fathers of this nation
laid the foundation
Working man's sweat
is what built this nation
Winds of change rearrange
when all is said and done
We will forge ahead
the battle will be won!
Working class will rise above,
standing tall and proud
Working class above - Blue blood
Working class will rise above
we will not forget
Working class above - Blue blood
Working class will rise above
standing tall and proud
Working class above - Blue Blood
Total uproar, Media explodes
Inter-racial violence totally unloads
Those not from the streets speak naivetees
Urban youth repeat it's just reality

Howard Beach

Media raging, A battle of TV ratings
Jackass bureaucracy fuels
the fire of hating
Unfortunate happening of
a young man's death
Creating racial tension with every breath

Howard Beach

Media Bullshit
Next time you put on the TV screen
And the man is preaching
About shit he's never seen
Change the channel and ignore the fool
Get out in the streets
then you go to school
You're a fish out of water on the wrong side of the tracks
Gather up the boys to come and take your back
We stand all together against the opposed
We'll die for our brethren, that we have chose

On the wrong - side of the tracks
On the wrong - side of the tracks

Escalation, war in the streets
Catch one sucker and he gets beat
What you see is what you get
Soft motherfuckers will soon meet their end

On the wrong - side of the tracks
On the wrong - side of the tracks

And when you're in fuckin' Brooklyn
You best watch your back!

It took you damn long
To hear me sing this song
Cuz I'm the motherfucker from the wrong
Side of the tracks

Yo! Hey I'm from around the way
You'd better not stray on the wrong
Side of the tracks
Ducking from the 5-0
Didn't know where to go
Never should've stepped on the wrong
Side of the tracks
Hey! Yo cuz I'm good to go
I gotta get back from the wrong
Side of the tracks

Across the tracks
No one takes your back
Across the tracks

The boys in the gang
Want to see me hang
Well I had my bells rang on the wrong
Side of the tracks
Strapped, a broken pact
Caught in a trap on the wrong
Side of the tracks
Wrong or right, I had to fight
I ran for daylight to the right
Side of the tracks
A lesson to learn
When the tables are turned
YOu might get burned on the wrong
Side of the tracks
Tough times ahead of me
Tough times behind
I fight for my life, I fight till I die
I fight to save my mind
It's justified violence
It burns from within
Sometimes a man must fight
It's not always a sin
It's not a sin!
Justified violence
Justified violence!
An innocent victim becomes the pun,
hat thriving fools in search of some fun
It's not fun to fight ten to one
Some won't accept it
that you won't conform
Like bees upon honey the animals swarm
Unjust acts come back to you, I warn

Those who don't fight fair,
you'd best beware
Fight to be yourself
Do unto others
as you'd have done to you
A beating was given in an unfair fight,
revenge is planned, a posse in the night
Street justice decides wrong from right
For the blood and the honor
the sucker will pay,
we will show them the meaning of prey
Today is judgement day

When you're latying face down
and you're part of the ground
What comes around goes around
Justified violence
When you're down in the streets
get back on your feet
Defending you're pride for justified violence
Justified violence
Justified violence
Justified violence

                                                                    
It looks like the system
tries to hold me down
But guess what? I ain't fucking around
You can't deny the pride
that I have shown
I grind hard and I must hold my own
Coming from the gutter
It's so hard to get ahead
Taking no one's bullshit
and working for my bread
The future don't look positive,
the rat race holds me down
What a struggle keeping
two feet on the ground
Someday I'll have my peace of mind
I'll keep fightin', one day I will find
A decent life where self-respect is shown
Until then I must hold my own
Always under pressure
I take things as they come
Always looking up,
look out for number one!
My views got you in check,
I never back down,
I pack a hard punch,
and I always stand my ground
I - will not back down
Holding my own, I stand my ground
You will not break me
My belief is my way can't you see?
Coming from the gutter
It's so hard to get ahead
Taking no one's bullshit
and working for my bread
The future don't look positive,
the rat race holds me down
What a struggle keeping
two feet on the ground
Never back down
Agony - Inside my head
Making me wish - wish that I was dead
For all the dues in life that I have paid
I've been caught
locked in a world of rage
I look inside myself,
I see a great big blank
I look around me
and there is no one to thank
I think about the crazy shit
that I have done
This game of life - can it be won?
Pain

Pain - feel my agony
as it turns into my rage
in life full of anguish
can't you see I live in
Hell - becomes misery
metamorphasizing hate
I contemplate my demise
can't you feel my pain?
Searching for a better way
In a world with it's eyes closed
Hold your head up high
Which way to turn, is there any way out?
Inside my mind I scream and shout
Terrible anguish,
what's happening to me?
Somebody please set my soul free
Dug induced or maybe insane
What the fuck is wrong with my brain?
Only grows stronger, pain it grows bigger
Somebody please pull the damn trigger
Anxiety, the panic attack
Any way for me to get back
Heart is racing, mind is a blur
Cold sweat, palpitations occur

Discontent with life

Get this monkey of my back
Anxiety, the panic attack
Someone to talk or maybe a friend
Only draws nearer the ominous end
Heart racing faster, just might explode
It's all in my head, that's what I'm told
Consummate professional curing my ills,
Stop wasting my time
with those dumb little pills
Who can I cry to? I turn here and there
Tears on my pillow, I rip out my hair
Lost count of the girls
Still I'm not sane or content
with this world
Discontent with life
Discontent with life
Only the strong survive
Living all these days for myself, not you
Mind your own business I do what I do
All of you who like to preach all day
Now hear what I have to say
The smell of leather makes me high
I feel good inside when you cry
nor remorse is felt when you sigh
because skin keeps me warm and dry

To wear my boots, I'll take a hide
To feed my face, I'll kill with pride
In this world of survival
Those with strength will have no rival
I'll smile as I drive down the street
sitting in my car with plush leather seats
survival of the fittest and that is the beat
and I eat all of the meat
Don't get me wrong
I come from the streets
I'll tell you now it's strong over weak
You slow - you blow
and you will meet your defeat
Now you will understand
You will understand now
I've just returned from a long round trip
Many tales I have to tell
Now I don't get high
so you think I'm not hip
But I've seen the gates of Hell
How can a youth rise above all the shit
When surrounded
by such lousy influence?
He clutched the pipe, took his last hit
And nobody's heard from him since

In this world of confusion
Drugs were my solution
The pain was breaking my heart
I shut out my reality
Nearing my fatality
found myself falling apart
Miserable, horrible, life such an obstacle
Making my own matters worse
To end up dead in a dark alleyway
Or to ride in the back of a hearse
To die for a cause like pride or respect
Or honor would make you quite worthy
A pitiful waste to live in the sewer
And die before you reach thirty

Cop a bag as a crutch
copping out, lose so much
hangin' out, dippin' butts
Lost my mind smoking dust
There and back
Back in the days I was living a lie
Too cool to show my feelings
too cool to cry
Lost in a fog and unsure of my friends
With a one way ticket
headed straight for the end
As the flames burnt the rope
and my spirit cut loose
I found my self wrapped
in an emotional noose
I said to myself continue no longer
Today I face the world with a mind
that is stronger
Spent my time gettin' nice
I crapped out rolling dice
Look at me and my scars
Now I live pure and hard
There and back
Scarred for life
Scarred for life
Scarred for life
Memory, for all eternity
There forever of how it used to be
Scarred for life, try to forget the past
And if you hold your head up high
The sweet pain won't last
I can't seem to rid
this memory from my head
it's gonna rip and dig into my brain
until I'm dead
The pain and anguish just won't go away
I'm frightened to believe in God
who I just might betray
Scarred for life
Scarred for life
Scarred for life
Stigmitazed, you will realize
That this fucked up world
sees through shaded eyes
Through my scars, every victim has cried
"Time will heal all of your wounds"
Who ever told me that died
I can't seem to rid
this memory from my head
Scarred for life
it's gonna rip and dig into my brain
until I'm dead
Scarred for life
The pain and anguish just won't go away
Scarred for life
I'm frightened to believe in God
who I just might betray
Scarred for life
Scarred for life
Scarred for life
Scarred for life
It's a motherfuckin' homicide, just deserts
A shotgun painted right where it hurts
From the inside, the ones you can trust
You got connected to a serious bust
You thought you were a hustler, a boy that was rude
But now you're in the dirt, can of underground wormfood
Stupid motherfucker, you thought you would last
Well took the wrong path, now your name is in the past

Another fuckin' lowlife connected to the first
A crooked cop on the take, nothing could be worse
Twenty one gun salute, the widow lays the wreath
The whole police department covered up he was a thief
Yeah the city's finest, caught in deepest shit
Never tought the day would come, bang, a fuckin' hit
You call yourself the finest in the city, huh!
For scum like you,I have no fucking pity

Pushing and scumming, disribute all your poison
You call yourself a man, well you're nothing but a boy
son
A real man works hard, starves to climb the ropes
Not killing for money, on the corner selling dope
Money isn't everything, I guess it was to you
Did you control your own life or greed controlled you
For the lives that you destroyed, so morally depraved
For the people you left grieving, I spit on your grave

So it seems, this is the system, and I'm sorry to say
Dealers pay the cops to turn and look the other way
On both sides of the law, justice has been done
Not by a judge and jury but by the trigger of gun

Everybody scratches and tries to get ahead
You took the easy way, it is easy being dead
The chamber spins three, grab the trigger then you pull it
The game is called roulette and you just won the bullet

Pushing and scumming, disribute all your poison
You call yourself a man, well you're nothing but a boy
son
A real man works hard, starves to climb the ropes
Not killing for money, on the corner selling dope
Money isn't everything, I guess it was to you
Did you control your own life or greed controlled you
For the lives that you destroyed, so morally depraved
For the people you left grieving, I spit on your grave

So it seems, this is the system, and I'm sorry to say
Dealers pay the cops to turn and look the other way
On both sides of the law, justice has been done
Not by a judge and jury but by the trigger of gun

So it seems, this is the system, and I'm sorry to say
Dealers pay the cops to turn and look the other way
On both sides of the law, justice has been done
Not by a judge and jury but by the trigger of gun

The chamber spins three
I question not me, it only happens to others
I can?t deny reality as life gets smothered

If the lines can be read between
Maybe you can tell me then what it all means
Cause he who paints the big picture runs the whole scene

Locked down, I gotta get it out
Impending doom, a cloud above my head
Why me? My faith has been devout
Blasphemous? Am I better off dead?

Pusishment, for all my sins

A burning thought inside my mind
Has me full of pity for all of human kind
As we move forth, we fall further behind

Fear of death, will my life go on?
Controllled fate? On the corner rolling dice
Punishment, but I?ve done nothing wrong
In my eyes, who really pays the price

My lament, for the human race
Guilty, punishment for all my sins

Dread the day that brings the truth
Punishment for what I?ve done
Sentence me for all my sins
Bound in fear for what I?ve got
Though not much it seems a lot
Life is death and no one wins

Bustin? my ass, another day another dollar, as I kneel down and I
confress to the father that I?m suffering a burning question of
the truth, wether or not to pull the trigger or to jump right
off the roof, ?cause I did things normal and just like all my friends
but now I?m positive and life it all ends

Punishment, for all my sins, I repent

In reality, we all must face the fact that the majority
of the people are out there smoking crack, getting doped up,
shooting that shit into their veins, the question must be asked if
we have any brains left, or right or wrong in this son, a
question we all ask and must answer before long, ?cause no one
is safe in this world, what?s the deal, the sentence is death and to
what court do I appeal?

Punishment, for all my sins, I repent

Punishment
I make now a stand for belief that I'm steadfast
In hating all of the bullshit you give me doubt my future, present and past
Who are you to infringe your values upon me, I've learned the hard way
Stepping on my toes, you've put my back to the wall, my back to the wall

I've been told a thousand times to give respect when due
Why do you find it so hard to believe I've got none for you
It's my heart and my mind that I'll always follow, I will not break
Nor will my balls, altough that I've seen that you've tried
before
Why are people fake?

Maybe you're older, wiser on your own right, it's your mistake
I'm gonna do my own thing regardless, my choice to make
I am real, in touch with my feelings, and I know my place
You have shown, on the other hand, both sides of your face

I see the world in a different light
Things not always black and white
Through all these years still, to this day
My hardened eyes see only shades of grey

I would never try and tell you what was right from wrong
Maybe that's why you feel that I don't belong
Always put me down for things I've said and done
Can't you see it's a war that can't be won

A war that can't be won

Living in your world seems so clear and concise
Shutting out reality makes everything so nice
Paint a pretty picture black and white everyday
See my tattered canvass bleedign shades of grey

Maybe you're older, wiser on your own right, it's your mistake
I'm gonna do my own thing regardless, my choice to make
I am real, in touch with my feelings, and I know my place
You have shown, on the other hand, both sides of your face
I'm fed up, I've had it up to there
Tell me what is good for me and my career
Fuck you and your selfish advice
You've never been loyal to the same things twice
In your sheltered little lives, you don't know the scene
Doing as you're told, puppets of the big machine
Changing faces, revolving door hypocrisy
Who do you work for now, yeah, I see

Music's for you and me
Not the fucking industry
You fucking tell us what is cool
You see we came from different schools

You got no crowd but you got a big push
Kissing asses till your pride turns into mush
You might change your style for the record company
Fingers down your throat, you heave your integrity

You're weak, give it up, throw the towel and the flag in
And get your pussy ass of the motherfuckin' bandwagon
Never for a minute were you real in the first place
So far up someone's ass you got shit on your face

Music's for you and me
Not the fucking industry
You fucking tell us what is cool
You see we came from different schools
To us it matters what you say
Not the fucking games you play
You're full of shit, it's plain to see
The whole damn fucking indrusty

If you think for a minute this song's about you
Step the fuck back, cuz it's probably true
The message in the music is the reason that we're in this
Music is for you and me, not the fucking industry
Try to tell us what is cool, we came from different schools
It only matters what you say, not the fuckin' games you play
Full of shit, it's plain to see, the whole damn fuckin' industry

Music's for you and me
Not the fucking industry
You fucking tell us what is cool
You see we came from different schools
To us it matters what you say
Not the fucking games you play
You're full of shit, it's plain to see
The whole damn fucking indrusty
Fascism, the epitome of ignorance
Listen up, I'll give you a for instance
People go hating for the color of skin
Won't they learn they'll never win
Play nto the hands of the media vultures
We must learn to unite our cultures
Violence constantly tears us apart
Show the world that we've got heart

Blood is spilled on black and white
Different colors, why do we fight
Face the facts, stone cold sober
Black and white and red all over

Thousands die and kill each other
Someone rapes and stabs their mother
I think it'ssick to count the death toll
On and on the media rolls
Drive by shootings, homicide
Nobody cares about the mother who cried
A family's grief stepped on by ratings
Understand why I keep hating

It makes no sense for us to be pawns
In the chess game that the media plays

If the streets are where you run
There you die, why? Find yourself a way out

Black and white and red all over

Ruling out the positive and any hope for peace
This will only kill morale, paper sales increase
This shit has got to cease

Black and white and red all over

Believe half of what you read and half what you see
Put two and two together and you'll have reality
Can't you see my reality?

Blood is spilled on black and white
Different colors, why do we fight
Face the facts, stone cold sober
Black and white and red all over

Turn on the TV and what do I see
Killing, murder and blasphemy
Rape, arsan, robberies
People die of incurable disease
Crashes, bashes, people on crack
Scandal, war and heart attack
Always strife in the middle fucking east
If war sell papers why don't peace
A man with a promise smashes down my door
He sees a future with me, he's gonna give me more
"Give me all your trust, I'msure you won't regret
Just sign the dotted line, and I'll do so the rest"
He says I can't make it alone, not without him
But I've always been on my own, he doesn't know who I am
And now I'm starting to see just what you are to me
A parasitic leech of my life

You feed off the art that I bleed
You're a man with a promise but you ain't shit to me

A man broke his promise and he wants reparations
He sold me up the river, cause me grief and frustration
I gave him all my trust and got stabbed in the back
A lucky motherfucker that he hasn't yet been whacked
You ain't no fucking artist, spend your life exploiting others
Try all you want, you can't break me or my brothers
A business man vulture,no honor, no class
Take your money and your lawyers and shove 'em up your ass

You feed off the art that I bleed
Numbers to you is just pain to me

Now the tables are turned
Can't you see motherfucker that you've been burned
You're a man with a promise but you ain't shit to me
You ain't shit to me

You feed off the art that I bleed
Numbers to you is just pain to me

Now the tables are turned
Can't you see motherfucker that you've been burned
You're a man with a promise but you ain't shit to me
You ain't shit to me
I found a way out, a solution inside
From the things that are bathering me
It's been too long since I felt htis way
From your sad life I broke free
Don't ever think that you ripped me apart
And walked away with a price
Cause you can not penetrate my cold heart
ANd fill it with your disease

I wonder now how I lived before
Deaf, dumb, dead and blind
I moved my life forward and I'm never goin' back
And I've left you far behind
There's a lot of things that I've now realized
From the way that you treated me
It's bullshit and it's hatred you epitomized
You were blessed to have been with me

You filled my life with your disease
I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees
Disease is flowing through my veins
I'd rather die right now than live in pain

Looking around at the past and the present
Things are so much better now
Your misery wanted my company
But you can't keep a good man down
Whatever made me want to be with you
Is something I can't understand
Cuz if I never saw your fucking face again
I'd die a happy man

You filled my life with your disease
I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees
Disease is flowing through my veins
I'd rather die right now than live in pain
Growing up I've seen a lot of shit in my time
I've seen hunger, hunger, pleasure, pain, violence and crime
I have learned from the mistakes of my friends that have died
And from those who have gone down in life that just never
tried
Life is just too short I realize that now
I'm gonna get my shit together and try to make it some how
Cause one thing that I have learned is that you only live once
So now I'll take life by the balls and squeeze until they crunch

Knowledge of the streets, a valuable tool
Type of education you can't get in school
Many hard times, losing friends, getting burned
Nobody to teach me, I just learned
A man like clay molded by his surroundings
He starts to take shape of the beating and the pounding
Assembly line that I've been through
A hard motherfucker with a bad attidude
Maybe its just the times we live in
Maybe its just urban discipline

The ways of urban life are not as they seem
Standing up and fighting is what living here means
In order to survive you've got to earn your respect
The only lessons that you learn are from things that you regret

Brooklyn, Bronx, Manhattan, Staten Island and Queens
Standing up and fighting is what living here means
In order to survive you've got to earn your respect
The only lessons that you learn are from things that you regret
Not even for a second when he wake up did he ask
If today was gonna be his last
An average day in the middle of a life
Terminated by a sharp knife
Killing, spilling the liquid blood
As his boyz found him lying face down in the mud
You might say this song is in poor taste
But I must discuss the waste

Of lives of friends that I have lost
Who pays the price, who pays the cost
Can't cry, just anger till the end
It burns inside to lose a friend

Walking thin lines, anything to cop a dime
Labelled habitual, a loser three times
Just fucking' around, knuckles bloody to the bone
Whatever, the future's unknown
Unless you believe in predestination of fate
The letter read termination
It was fucked up I couldn't make out his face
Through the blod, what a fucking waste

Of lives of friends that I have lost
Who pays the price, who pays the cost
Can't cry, just anger till the end
It burns inside to lose a friend

My friend was there until the end (my friend)
Can never be replaced
The pain that I taste (It's over)
What a fucking waste

Of lives of friends that I have lost
Who pays the price, who pays the cost
Can't cry, just anger till the end
It burns inside to lose a friend

Cold blooded murder, suicide, another body laid to rest
Untimely demise, homicide, my faith is put to the test
Is there a god, sometimes I just can't believe
My friend who is dead was shot and then robbed
Something quite hard to conceive
People dying everyday there's got to be a better way
The losses blow my mind away, the stain of blood will always stay
Like the memory of a friend who stood with me until the end
The losses blow my mind away, the stain of blood will always stay

Of lives of friends that I have lost
Who pays the price, who pays the cost
Can't cry, just anger till the end
It burns inside to lose a friend

It's not for me that I grieve, but for the families left berieved
I question whether life is fair, I wonder if I even care
We think we know what life is worth until they lower us beneath
the earth
Mother crying, forever hurt, my face like stone I shavel dirt

My friend was there until the end (my friend)
Can never be replaced
The pain that I taste (It's over)
What a fucking waste
You're a fish out of water on the wrong side of the tracks
Gather up the boys to come and take your back
We stand all together against the opposed
We'll die for our brethren, that we have chose

On the wrong - side of the tracks
On the wrong - side of the tracks

Escalation, war in the streets
Catch one sucker and he gets beat
What you see is what you get
Soft motherfuckers will soon meet their end

On the wrong - side of the tracks
On the wrong - side of the tracks

And when you're in fuckin' Brooklyn
You best watch your back!

It took you damn long
To hear me sing this song
Cuz I'm the motherfucker from the wrong
Side of the tracks

Yo! Hey I'm from around the way
You'd better not stray on the wrong
Side of the tracks
Ducking from the 5-0
Didn't know where to go
Never should've stepped on the wrong
Side of the tracks
Hey! Yo cuz I'm good to go
I gotta get back from the wrong
Side of the tracks

Across the tracks
No one takes your back
Across the tracks

The boys in the gang
Want to see me hang
Well I had my bells rang on the wrong
Side of the tracks
Strapped, a broken pact
Caught in a trap on the wrong
Side of the tracks
Wrong or right, I had to fight
I ran for daylight to the right
Side of the tracks
A lesson to learn
When the tables are turned
YOu might get burned on the wrong
Side of the tracks

Across the tracks
No one takes your back
Across the tracks
Looking through these bars and wondering why I'm here
Accused of a crime I did not commit and the police make nothing
clear
Stipped of my rights by the words of another
Locked in a cell with my victimized brothers
In this country, the land of the free
I'm an innocent man arrested guilty

I stand accused, innocent of the crime
Not yet been sentenced but I'm already doing time

Mistaken identity, handcuffed face down
Mistaken identity, my freedom gagged and bound

Surrounded by convicted felons, locked down in this cell
What did I ver do to earn this living hell

Busted by cops in need of a collar
Eating donuts four to twelve to earn their dollar
In this country, the land of the free
I am an innocent man arrested guilty

The criminal justice system plagued with dishonesty
They should judge themselves instead of crucifying me

Mistaken identity, handcuffed face down
Mistaken identity, my freedom gagged and bound

A pussy power trip throw me in the joint
I feel sorry for you because you're missing the point
You picked the wrong motherfucker and followed it through
Let the hammer of injustice fall on you

You have right to remain silent
Was the bullshit that he said
Put your hands where I can see them
Make one move and you're dead

Mistaken identity, handcuffed face down
Mistaken identity, my freedom gagged and bound


To fill a quota and treat my life
Like a number or a statistic
Make once innocent youth outraged
Angry and ballistic

Mistaken identity, handcuffed face down
Mistaken identity, my freedom gagged and bound

Mistaken identity, handcuffed face down
Mistaken identity, my freedom gagged and bound
Early man walked away as modern man took control
Their minds weren't quite the same, to conquer was his goal
So he built his great empire and he slaughtered his own kind
Then he died a confused man, killed himself with his own mind

We're gonna die
From our own arrogance
I sit and pick my brain each night
With an axe in my hand held tight
Bity my nose to spite my face
Killing myself, I can't escape the rat race
Wallowing in neck-deep misery
Quicksand dissent, pressure free
Deepest wounds are self inflicted
Should I hope to be vincited

Always alone, society's abortion
Self mutilation, the daily partion
Resentful past breeds hopeful future
With tears of blood, I remove the sutures

Dying inside, emotions they hide
Irreperable damage from the tears that I've cried
I climb from the sewer, the years that I have
spent
Self mutilation or my environment

Tears of Blood, Tears of Blood
I cry, I cry
Tears of Blood, Tears of Blood
I die

Tears of Blood, Tears of Blood
I cry, I cry
Tears of Blood, Tears of Blood
I die

Deny myself for fear of being
Is it over now, has my heart stopped beating
Lying here just self defeating
My mind is empty, it won't stop bleeding
Twisted anger screams my brain
Over the edge, I hang in pain
Mouth locked shut my mind won't swallow
With tears of blood alone I wallow

No one to blame except myself
What you call masochism I call wealth
Maybe its just a matter of pride
Too sweet to end with suicide

Peel the scub, pour salt in the wound
Torturing myself, I'm forever doomed
Looking east and west each and every moon
A peaceful rest comes somebody soon

No one to blame expect myself
What you call masochism I call wealth
Is death life and do we live in hell?

Tears of Blood, Tears of Blood
I cry, I cry
Tears of Blood, Tears of Blood
I die

Tears of Blood, Tears of Blood
I cry, I cry
Tears of Blood, Tears of Blood
I die

Tears of Blood, Tears of Blood
I cry, I cry
Tears of Blood, Tears of Blood
I die
Just look at the state we're in
People at odds there's nuclear fission
Mad beef with technology
Shit ain't right, not like it used to be
We pollute the air we breathe
And the water that we drink
Modern tempers rage and seethe
Why don't we stop and think
At the current rate we're sealing our fate
It's much too late for a world based on hate
We've entered the time of quarrel
Human beings can't coexist
No more respect for morals
Our values have been dismissed
It starts in vicious circles and then it filters down
From governments to local gangs
Confrontation all around
State of panic we hang by a thread
The earth will be safe when we're all dead
Call me pessimistic, the glass is empty
After the blast a new society
Fear spawns greed and see what it brings
A world where no one enjoys the small things
Happiness comes from these and within
But we will never find it if we're boiling in sin
If you were to ask for a favor
There is no such thing, just natural behavior
You see we're family inside
To say we're down with you, yo we say it with pride
Because to us you're real people
Never talkin' down, always as an equal
We're brothers of blood, we share the knife
And now we'll see, Who is down for life
But you front and leave us in doubt
We know who you are and what you're all about
Not sharing mutual respect
And Having to worry about stickin' out our necks
Instead of crying about the loss
We're thankful for those who are down for the cause
We live our lives full of rage
Keepin' ourselves down, mentality of the stone age
Negative emotions project zero
Worryin' and hating, you'll never be a hero
Reach around our back and pull out the knife
And knowing exactly who's down for life
What makes us tick
Are we mentally sick
Feeling inside that drive us like pride
Or emotional scars from our friends that have died
And make us build walls so incredible high
They exceed the ceiling from the terrified feelings
Which we often repress and end up depressed
Some vent it as rage, it's the fashion these days
In a twisted society, we drown in anxiety
Has push come to shove, have we killed the dove
Are we caught in a fit, what makes us tick
Has man gone insane, are we feeling the strain
We must dig and must pick at what makes us tick
Has push come to shove, have we killed the dove
Are we caught in the thick as to what makes us tick
Can you feel the pain that I feel
No
So let me tell you about what is real
Go
The pain inside, it kills me, I cry
So
What is it that makes us tick
Can you hear the cries that I cry
Why
Leave me alone, I'm ready to die
Die
For me I lie to myself
Just what is it that makes us tick
Your cards were dealt when
You drove through the night
As a man in dark clothes came into your sight
The barrel tapped the glass
You reached the window lock
Get the fuck out the car
And leave it in the crosswalk
He climbed into your seat
And dropped a vial of crack
Pissin' down your leg, you're a victim of carjack
Feel the cold steel as I pull the hammer back
Bang! You're fuckin' dead 'cause it's like that

Society, pushed him down and out
Soul provider what's it all about
Religion, faith can we do without
Social pressure we're too strung out

Another bad hand the cards have been dealt
Kid of fourteen, high aspirations held
To get ahead and run shit with his powerful will
Told by his role model, you're old enough to kill
See my ride, my bitches and my loot
If ya wanna survive be prepared to shoot
Stay hard like me, you're bound to do well
A waste of precious life, twenty five and an L

I'll put a bullet in your head for the colour of your skin
This is my neighborhood who the fuck let you in
I'll stick with mine stay with your own kind
The virus of hate infects the ignorant mind
look into the yes of a madman
You can see it in his face, he's a weak and sad man
Staring straight ahead, his eyes set like stone
With a nine millimeter cocked at your dome
No way out, it's too late 'cause you're already in it
So what'cha gonna do you'll be dead in a minute
Thinking slow will get you nowhere fast
A young life terminated with one short blast
You live like that, you die like this
That 's how it is
Livin' with regret is no way to live
That's how it is
You're dead too soon if the bullet don't miss
That's how it is kid
How it is
That's what you get for
Living like this
With a bullet in your head - you're dead, you can't miss
Ain't no time for regret when you're body is in a bag
Ain't no time to change your mind when your head begins to sag
Should've known better, ain't working for you now
Maybe if you'd know better you'd be here somehow
So change your ways before you ways change you
With a hole in your head that you can see through
You're looking up and you're looking down
Shot's are rippin' out from all around
You're crying out for help but it can't be found
The voice of regret is the only sound
You play the game and you pay the price
For hustlin' in the gutter with the motherfuckin' street lice
You're runnin' and gunnin' and whatever else goes
And you're goin' with your crew whichever way the wind blows
"cause you got their back and they got yours
And you live for yourself and you make your own laws
But sooner or later what goes around comes around
You wind up dead and buried in hard, cold ground
Here's a dedication
To the men and women who've served in Vietnam
From our generation to you and your family...
Respect is long overdue
Memories of blood, red, white, blue
Orange skies at night, southeast Asia knew
You were called to serve and you did it well
For us you've made a round-trip through hell
Wars within wars, within wars
To survive you made your own laws
Every day and night to stay alive
You kept your head down and your powder dry
Memories of families
It's God i've known
Take me home
Now you live asking God why
He didn't take you when your brothers all died
Explosions shake the dreams in your head at night in bed
Don't wake him up or you'll end up dead
Try to understand his pain
He still sees blood stains that remain
In his heart and mind, try to numb the pain
People think they understand
Sat watching TV back on quiet land
They spit on you now we'll spit back for you
Our hearts, our voice, gift of our hands
What can they do for you and those who served
And died, we pay respect to the families
Who still cry
Your kids are now full grown
With the love and pride you should have known
Back when your country brought you home
Still now you fight the tears and face your fears each day
But the horrors of fact won't go away
For 2300 MIA's or POW's to this day
We remember and pray for you
Walkin' five blocks every day to earn my keep
It ain't easy when you're walkin' on these streets
Runnin' on a tightrope it's a real thin line
Thinkin' that you might die this time
Some things will never change, a street education
So close yet so far, just a block from the station
Standin' on the corner, I might get taken out
Five blocks to the subway, just five blocks away
Five blocks to the subway, I can do that any day
There's a local wise guy he owns the whole damn block
It's easy doin' business when you're payin' off the cops
Makin' money pushin' drugs wouldn't stop if he could
Killin' kids in his own damn neighborhood
Watch out for muggers and the pickpockets beware
You get to play these games when you pay transit fare
Trials and tribulations, a journey made each day
This is my reality,the hardest game to play
Standin' on the platform and I'm waiting for the train
Good thing I'm underground, now it's startin' to rain
Always stand alone, hold the wall up with my back
Or else you might get pushed on to the tracks
Each day I have another choice too
To try and make things right
I awake from the nightmare
Another day closer to the grave
With a personal affair
And my fright is in moderation
It just might be the death of me
I am aware

I'm not worried about tomorrow
Don't give a fuck about yesterday
To get through this day of sorrow
I must face what comes my way (each day)

Each day I need some kind of release
To pull the trigger on my soul and
Breathe through the bullet hole

I need some peace
Before I am deceased
I want to see my world in its
Negative state became a positive
Place my unleashing all the hate within

I'm not worried about tomorrow
Don't give a fuck about yesterday
To get through this day of sorrow
I must face what comes my way (each day)
Inner city strugglin', motherfuckin' rat race
Condemned pressure cooker, that explodes in your face
Another neighborhood gets destroyed by the drug deal
Staking a claim on an estate that is real
Pay the mob's price for your own protection
Half a wise guy makes the wrong connections
Flooding our streets with your wanna be bullshit
Who whacks who, don't matter who gets hit
The space between the death of our friends is so close
This month it was neglect, our boy died of an overdose
Last month a gunshot, a typical story
That's just the way it goes in a failed territory
No hope, just dope, and your chances are slim
To grow up and get out 'cause you're already in
The vacuum of the street so powerful
Sucking you in it drains your mind by the hour fool
Still smoking dippers our friends are all dusted
Slave to a bottle of juice, fucking disgusted
Can't you see the neighborhood's black hole
And the odds are that we'll never grow old
Young guns scam running on a get ahead quick tip
With your pretty ass crimes, you're on a blind road trip
Day to day death, wish we all carry inside
Welcome to your suicide
So you call yourself a part of the avenue crew
Living here doesn't offer much else to do
But get into beef and take each other's back
Kid of eighteen, broke his skull with a bat
Always changing with the trends like a fucking chameleon
Live for yourself 'cause you're one in a million
A rebel 'cause you weren't born into wealth
But the only thing holding you down is yourself
On the road we get phone calls breaking our hearts
When they find someone we love in the trunk of a car
Nothing you can do. Just another sad story
Wake up, break out
An epitaph from your own self doubt
Lack of trust, all alone
Lookin' down at the bottom of a hole
I've no trust, bare my soul
Are we alone or do we have friends
Or are we just searchin' for a means to an end
What up, peace out, my boys and all that
But as soon as we leave they talk behind our backs
Low selfimage of the way things are
Either way we lose and we can never go far
'Cause always we'll wonder as to just what's the deal
It just depends on what you feel is real
Perception is everything inside our brains
With much bigger problems, no time for games
Of people acting down but it's just a facade
Can't say it to my face, isn't that odd
Just what exactly does trust mean
Is it about being down with the scene
Or is it about following your own true heart
And being true to your friends to the end from the start
Just what is wealth it's just how you view it
It's not having to wonder whether or not you might lose it
It can't be about material gain
If you're drowning alone neck deep in pain
To trust and lay your soul on the line
May not be the nature of most humankind
Lookin' over your shoulder is no way to go
So stick with true friends and do without the doubt
You don't care about
Self doubt coming out from inside out
Knock you down, across town all around the underground
Shooting and disputing you're always persecuting
With your attitude and fucked up views tattooed, rude and crude
Denying, glorifying your way of life while crucifying
Close your eyes for the ride while you glorify your false pride
In any case you're blue in the face 'cause you lost your place in
the human race
That pushed you to do what you do so fuck you and your point of
view
I used to doubt myself because I lived without
What I needed inside
My pride, comes from inside
Nothing to hide enough tears cried
My pride won't be denied
Moan and groan and chew the bone about the zone you call your own
Grow your own backbone hold your own and stand alone
Why pretend and be content with all the hate you hold innate
Pull your weight, it ain't too late to recreate your inner state
Discontent with time ill spent time has come and time has went
Now you vent while you torment why resent ? misrepresent
The scene between the lean and mean serene, extreme, the American
dream
Live alive revive and thrive on life deprived as I survive
I'm fuckin' pissed off I used to be so angry
I'd disagree with anything that went against inside me
But things have changed I've rearranged in exchange for all the
pain
I kept inside and tried to hide denied and lied, but kept my pride
By my side in good supply all the while, hostile
And senile, I never smiled at anyone but now I'm done
A battle won for number one so look and see and you'll agree
I live life free, I now know me I am a man who knows he can
I know I can, I take my stand
The monster of hate overcomes rational thought
Fast fuse burning the lessons I've been taught
It's just too late to remember who I am
The things that I believe in and the way that I stand
About peace, harmony, respect for fellow man
All that shit just got thrown against the fan
In my violent rage, they say that I am a criminal
There ain't no labels within the human animal
In this world of bigotry and pain
The violence spreads and terror reigns
The opinions in our minds replace our souls
As the human animal takes control
The path of self-destruction has brought me to this point
As modern day society cracks arthritic joints
No mercy is shown, it's hitting all my weak spots
I never had a gun, but now I wanna hear gun shots
I sleep not for fear, I get no rest
Twisted in a sense, 'cause my button has been pressed
How many ways have you shown me that you hate me
And then you wonder why what have you done to me lately
I am an animal
The human animal
A human animal
Tension building, I'm being pushed too far
I need a release, take the lid of this jar
My voice seems useless in this situation
Time to take action, release frustration
Everyone has limits, only so much you can take
Antagonizing pressure is the icing on the cake
Physical abuse, induced or subliminal
Open the door, unleash the human animal
Flashes of red my vision of distortion
Like a virus, it spreads, giving each his portion
Contagious psychopath, the vibe is in synch
Movin' like a pack, we're back to basic instincts
Wild at heart, now we show our true colors
In the path of desperation, we forget about our brothers
Who would die for us, now, we die for no man
Deranged from the instance, violence came too hard
Instinctual behavior in the given situation
Leaves us with no call for rationalization
Sometimes I feel it's a waste of time
To listen to your shouting a wordless pantomime
Can't you see it falls on deaf ears
Filling me up with your point of view
Your opinions are your own, I got mine too
What I think don't mean nothing to you
When the shit hits the fan
And you're forced by the man
Who holds the key to our promised land
Don't misunderstand what's in the man's hand
'Cause it's all been laid out in the New World Plan
Makin' me feel like a laboratory rat
Without a mind of its own - diseased and fat
I can't let my life go out like that
'Cause I'm an extra skeptic, a true eclectic
I find it hard to trust all the people we've elected
Take a look around, do you feel protected
Like garbage in a dump our lives have been rejected
A blind man leading the not so blind
Creating false truth to fill our minds
To listen to yourself would be a crime
It all comes back to you some time
Like it or not, they got a number on me
I will not break for your demands
Rabid, defensive, in the corner I stand
Caught in a trap, the bait was free
Like it or not, they got a number on me
I can't trust anyone, they're all out to get me
Gonna run until I can't run from the laws that ruin me
Faster and harder so God help me flee
From the lies that we're free and the powers that be
That push the rich forward between you and me
But agree to agree with no guarantee
Of something to live for I'll die if need be
I stand up for all as I fight to be free
A child is told from day number one
He's a worthless piece of shit, bad and dumb
Generations pass down low self self esteem
We're molded by things we've heard and seen
Or punched in the mouth for being unsure
Or locked behind the closet door
We learn what we live, we live what we learn
Abuse of innocence to evil we turn
Can anybody hear their cries
Can anybody tell them why
You gotta read between the lies
People die when love is denied
One of many lessons i learned to be like
You ain't gonna live like you
You made me what I am today
So close to you, yet so far away
The pain you lived with made you ill
An empty hole with nothing to fill
I forgive and love you forever still
A waste of time, a waste of life
Livin' on the edge of a sharp fuckun' knife
I can't blame you for never being around
I know you never meant to hurt and bring me down
Look in their eyes to hear their cries
And you will see all their pain lying dormant inside
Now realize as time passes by
That people die when love is denied
Monday yawning school's so boring,
Or go to work like a jerk and end up snoring,
Tuesday's mail never fails,
Collection agency wants me in jail,
Wednesday's rules got me ignoring deploring,
my tensions roaring,
Thursday same shit different day,
But these motherfucking rules will never ever go away.

Fuck the rules.

Friday night gonna be out of sight,
If you're 21 they say drinking might be fun,
On Saturday Bible says seventh day,
The day of rest so have it your way,
Go for a ride keep it under 55,
Respect the Badge don't drink and drive,
On Sunday gotta survive these fascist fools,
Take your freedom back from the bullshit rules.

Call me paranoid call me what you will I got a fucking feeling
something big is going down.
So many things these eyes have seen,
People I?ve met and places I?ve been,
Inconceivable how one maintains,
In the game with the pain and the strain on the brain,
How reality?s plane can wear you down,
And make you an insane man who only frowns,
City hardened and cold just like me,
Anger has numbed my eyes from all they see.

Like a workingman?s skin as it turns to leather,
The mind of the youth is forced to weather,
An assault on his senses by his parents and peers,
That preys on innocence, weakness and fears,
Manifestation of rage runs deep,
Over the edge of sanity, thoughts creep,
Violent reaction, bitter and mean,
A product of what these eyes have seen.

These eyes have seen inhuman sights,
I hold my breath with all my might,
Like anyone else in our own hells,
It seems obscene the things I?ve seen.

Lost count of how many wakes were attended,
Mind and body never quite mended,
Do you think this is what life intended?
At fourteen your life has ended,
Maybe your spirit is battered and broken,
From shit you?ve seen and words that were spoken,
Death, violence, drugs all around,
These eyes have seen some shit go down.
Emptiness slips into my mind,
Emotion so fucking hard to find,
I center myself in this universe,
With peace amongst all the pains and hurts,
I think of all the things that would've been,
And the time I could've spent with him,
But again comes sadness creeping in.

Taken by surprise stigmatized by the things I've seen with my own
eyes,
Traumatized until I realize that I gotta go on with my life.

I can only guess what I should've done then,
Wandering alone on the path I've chosen,
Lumbering along towards inevitable fate,
I await an answer, I wrestle with hate,
I question your life and the choices you made,
I question myself with righteousness and rage,
Confused and sick from mistakes I've made.

Questions to ponder about letting go, answers I find towards peaceful
flow,
People take shit for granted as given, not in this world that I live
in,
In my eyes, I realize. No more lies stigmatized.
On your knees before the mighty them, receive communion once again,
Obey and follow strict laws to the letter,
Do as you're told and life will be better,
Go with the flow, avoid the strife, let unknown powers rule your life,
A box of glass dictates your death stolen minds innocence last breath.

On your knees pray to the one you appease.

Whatever happened to the good old days no mental smokescreen
subliminal haze,
Corporate society prints out your thoughts spirituality sold and
bought.
Now your life is all dictated, all you stood for, all you hated,
Establishment prevails again on your knees before the mighty them.

Look in my eyes and you will find,
Another way to get through your life,
Stare at my face, make up your mind,
And you will find love at first sight,
Connect your soul now get online,
Mind control taking your life.

Try not to look 'cause you might turn to stone,
How much time do you really think on your own?
Just trying to be yourself don't wanna be like no one else,
It was something that was once pure and the truth was meant to endure,
Gotta find out who's to blame gotta end this mind control game.
The dirt's so thick it won't come clean,
All around a haze like a smoke screen,
I can't see you but you see me,
But I might be gone before you count to three.
The waters are totally polluted,
The armies inside my head have feuded,
One side has smothered the other,
The disease it spreads and begins to cover.

Maggot infested soul of mine,
Has painted me in a corner confined.
My vision is blurred no reason or rhyme,
Help me escape these walls I climb.

I'm drowning in my own shit, gasping,
Gagging on the vomit asphyxiated, grasping,
For a grip on the soap with the rope,
So I can get clean and begin to cope,
Scrub me 'til I'm raw, an open sore oozing
Unless I'm clean I might start losing.
My mind and my life would have a fucked-up ending,
Thank God if you ever see cleansing.

Sewn my eyes shut can't you see I'm smothered?
Deaf, dumb and blind the dirt has covered
The windows which let the light shine through,
Cleansing of the soul for I am you.

The last time I slept I dreamt.
My friend and I we got so high.
On top of mountains, deep in the sky,
Way up high where the white goes by.
The air is thin and hard to breathe.
But with a friend near, by your side,
you can conquer the world or wander around all starry-eyed.
I laid there and dreamt along for a ride.
I took in the journey, my friend beside.
It all seemed so real, it all seemed surreal,
my friend and I were one deep inside.
These dreams come and go and are never the same.
I await new journeys asleep I remain.

When I hold my eyes shut tight I dream.
When I dream at night through my dreams I scream.
Why do people have to go and fucking change?
What pushed my friend to tap the vein?
Asleep at night I visit my friend.
Asleep at night I miss my friend.
We used to be part of the same thing,
But now you make strides for the gold ring,
You make our sacred ground into a slaughterhouse,
You used to look me in the eye but now you look me up and down.

Competition always looking out for self,
Indecision and then your friendship fell,
No religion no ethics in your ways,
I pray for you to see the error of your days,
I pray for you to see the error of your ways.

Step up for the crew to represent,
But what do you stand for? You only resent.
It was all for one, but now you blew it,
I know you're not down and I can see right through it.

What you give is what you get and I know it's not respect.
What you give is what you get jealous ways you'll soon regret.
As I look up at the sky,
I wonder why my momma always cried,
Was it for how fast we lived and died?
Or because we never got our piece of the pie?
Busting at the seams, The American Dream,
Like Meth said Cream, Boulevard of Broken Dreams,
Parents with good intentions never mention,
The Brooklyn House of Detention.

Free to fly, and free to try, to get our peace before we die,
Free to fly, and free to try, to get our piece of the pie and die.

Locking us down, we got cops all around,
The sound of sirens drown your own heart?s pound,
But you only wanted a piece of the pie,
And in your mind?s eye momma?s still gonna cry,
No matter how hard you tried, whether it?s truth or lies,
On the day that you die...but we?re free to fly,
And free to try to get our piece of the pie and die.

Freedom, Liberty, The KKK, Modern Democracy, we have no say,
American Dream, The American Way, Land of the Free, Home of the Slave.
Times are changing, things come and go,
Things are getting worse the earth, a black hole,
I say to myself "Will this shit ever change?"
Will it ever improve or will it stay the same?

It's plain to me that things are amiss,
Because I've seen better days than this,
How could we let it get as bad as it is?
Because I've seen better days than this,
It's plain to me that things are amiss.

Famine and war, hate and disgrace,
Incest and murder, raping the rat race,
I see no end to this suffering,
Faith, hope and love are burnt offerings.

Decline and fall of modern man, our fate is sealed by our own hand,
Time spinning onward we're regressing fast,
Signs of the times say these days might be our last,
Better days are gone forever I fear,
Our hate dictates our fate, apocalypse is here.
I feel a weight that's pulling me down,
But my reflex is to try to break out,
Nature gives fight or flight syndrome,
But my feet stay on the ground that's how I've grown,
Bred to resist the gravity of anything that's fucking with me,
Survivalist instincts through my veins are pounding,
Transfused at birth by my urban surroundings.

Gravity won't allow me to fly,
It pulls me down, the pain, I won't cry,
Resistance and drive fueled by hunger,
What doesn't kill me makes me stronger.

I just can't let shit get to me,
Got to reflect back on what pop taught me,
To be your own man no matter what,
To never back down, and follow your gut,
Instinct, something he said that I'd know,
Something that I'd carry wherever I go,
He told me someday I'd have to fight to be free,
And resist the weight of gravity.

Calloused hands wipe away tears,
Of the pain of a man broken by years,
A silent shot that nobody hears,
A smoking gun of our own fears,
My father worked all his life and for what,
Day in, day out, caught in a rut,
The pain of apathy, razor-sharp cutting,
But I'll make sure he doesn't die for nothing.
You walk around, always screaming about
How you're trying to get your way,
But you should just keep your fucking fat mouth shut,
If you got nothing important to say.

Because you...you got a lot to learn.

All you do is bitch about the things in life that get you down,
You never care for nobody else,
If you saw how your life looks to me,
I think you'd be ashamed of yourself.

You live inside your fucked-up world,
Talking loud with nothing to say,
You got a lot to learn about your life,
Because you can't keep on living this way.
Drug infested, narcotic, electric, schizophrenic,
Murderer arrested, a child molested, a race detested,
A building burnt down, insurance invested,
Homelessness lingers all around, rape, death, sickness,
Homeward bound unemployed, no love, no joy,
Cut down to size, a life destroyed, war, no peace,
Death, tragedy, no cure, disease, AIDS, leprosy,
A veteran dead below the knee, eyes burn in your head,
You cannot see.

Spending all my time just standing in line,
And I'm waiting, waiting to die,
Watching every day of my life go by,
Just waiting, waiting to die.

Children beaten, poisons eaten, look at the world, we're
self-defeating,
Reputed, undisputedly polluted, crack heads with guns ain't afraid to
shoot it,
Countries fighting for oil and gold while the hole in the ozone
layer's out of control,
Brother kills brother in a world full of hate, too fucking late our
heads on a plate,
Nature's dying, children crying, human race ass in a fucking pan
frying,
With no one to blame except ourselves, greed transforms our earth into
hell.

Murder, Middle East assassination, extermination, human termination,
The war on drugs, humiliation,
A ruined nation, with no explanation.
Something to hide bound and gagged and tied,
A gun in your hand at your head, suicide,
It's censorship of my pure mind,
No justice, no truce, no hope to find.
The sun is shining, but I don't know if it'll shine again,
The sky is clear now, but the clouds wait overhead,
The wind stopped blowing, but I see the trees are flowing,
The water's calm now feel the undertow towing me down,
towing me down.

The sun's gone down now behind the dark clouds looming,
Birds stop singing, silence so soothing,
Dark clouds open up, I hold my rain-soaked head,
Thoughts are racing by, I scream and wish that I was dead,
I wish that I was dead.

Gotta find a way in this world to cope,
Gotta find a place in this world with hope.

Gotta find a way to keep my head straight another day
I pray to let go of hate I break myself away from my mind,
I search for inner peace I never find.
The pain creeps in every day,
And you're trying your best not to feel this way,
Some days up and some days down,
Swimming in misery, you're starting to drown
Looking for answers to impossible questions,
Searching in your mind in new dimensions,
Feeling so alone and you've been thinking,
"I'm better off dead than alone here, sinking!"

Searching for the light and looking inside,
To find out where your true strengths hide.

Going on and on this pain has got to cease,
Living like an animal full of disease,
Further inspection now you're looking inside,
To find out where your true strengths hide,
You're looking around for some higher power,
To get you through this darkest hour,
All those years of pain are now coming through,
Those cracks in your mind are nothing new to you.

You're starting to slip to a whole new level,
The metal of a gun pressed against your temple,
One in the chamber, maybe one in your head,
You can pull the trigger, and your mind'll turn red,
What about the things that you never did?
Getting straight, get a life, maybe having kids?
Is a moment's pleasure really worth the cost,
Of looking back on your life and all the things you lost?

Don't know my future, with my past behind,
I'm now reborn new hopes to find,
Free from restraints that held me down,
The cycle of hate that comes around.
I got this thorn in my side, I try, but I can't get it out,
Been killing me for years gone by, a miserable, painful bout,
No matter how hard and long I try to rip at it, it stays,
Buried deep inside my side enduring, every day.

Thorn in my side.

I've picked the scab, a trying way, a painful means to amend,
Rid myself from the anguish, torment that I must end,
I've lived this way for years but now I gotta move on,
An oozing sore needs tending to just like the thorn I adorn.

Misused, abused, accused, confused,
I'm sick and tired of backwards views, my soul's too tired,
All black and bruised.
Feel the warmth of the flame as it burns inside,
Burning high and higher pressure starts to climb,
Turning passion into sweat, Jekyll into Hyde,
Glossy eyed, unsatisfied, I can't help but deny,
As my love gets set aside,
As my love gets set aside,
Magnified by hate inside.

Face down upon the ground,
Lookin' down at her, you start to frown,
Thinking to yourself,
"Am I insane to do the things I do to her in vain?"

Woman beater with your hands wrapped around her neck,
Deranged, demented, a psycho-social wreck,
Your self-denial, hatred got to keep it in check,
You rape for love and you kill for respect.
"Free people will never remain free if they are not willing, if
need be, to fight for their vital interests."

I watch your bullshit from the outside in, you disrespect and hate
You think you're better than your fellow man,
Controlled by fear you seal your fate
How could you step on me, violate, desecrate and hate me
But I'm just like you, flesh and blood, I'm only human.

I resist the pressure to be who you want me to be
I resist the pressure, I resist so I am free.

I see right through your condescending ways, as you look down on me
But I could never stand and judge like you, I resist so I am free.
My peace of mind, peace of mind will set me free
But I'm just like you, flesh and blood, in need of revolution.
I resist so I am free.
Welcome to the rat race, people killing themselves
To get ahead of the pack, backstab and attack.
Out for self, the money, the power, the fame,
Competition and greed in a world without shame.
I stumble and fall along the path I've chosen,
I face my fears, I won't be broken.
Corrosion has a way of fucking with your sanity,
I do what I gotta to preserve my humanity.

Switchback - taking life as each day comes
Switchback - facing fears, I never run,
Switchback - never quit until I'm done
I'm the underdong and I will overcome.

Confrontation can break you down to your very fast compound.
Beat you down, drag you round, break you
Refuse to bend, never ever let it take you
Over the edge where you can never break through.
Overcome, switchback, stand strong alone
The good, the bad, the truth, the unknown
Locked up at war with the demons within
I fight to live, I live to win.

The harder that I battle with lifes deceit,
The stronger I stand on my own two feet.
If I allow the world to assimilate my mind,
Will my freedom be forever denied?
Will I no longer be free in my mind?
Someday I hope to rise above material chains which hold me down
To turn my anger into love and keep my feet planted on the ground.
To undo stigmas societies branded, misconceptions about being a man.
To be grateful, take nothing for granted, to live the truth as best I can.

I seek the truth whatever that may be,
I seek the answers to questions, please God help me.

To look at people and see no color, vision clear of prejudice or spite,
To treat people just like my brother, for this I pray with all my might.
To learn to let go of all my fears and learn to embrace all of my tears,
To search for faith and humility, to walk the path which sets me free.

Salvation, from society, damnation, have mercy on me.

So many lies I told, so many lives I've sold.
So far away from who I am I never understand.
So many things I regret, so many things that I let
Take me away from myself, too late to take it back.

So many dreams I had, so many lives I've lived
So many friends I said goodbye forever
So amny times I wish, so many times I dream,
Do it again, I swear I'd never.

In my quest to uncover the truth the deepest wounds get left behind
As I seek serenity from the war, from the war inside my mind.
Where to run to, where to hide, much to full to swalllow my pride
But I'm still haunted by something inside as if another part of me
has died.

Paralyzed, I close my eyes, the pain inside surrounds me.
Petrified, life fades away, at the end of my rope I'm waiting.

Sometimes I feel like I'm all alone, empty inside, out of control.
My heart a void, my empty soul, until it's filled I'll never be whole.
How did things ever get so bad, sinking empty, full of despair
I find myself alone and scared, in a world where nobody cares.

A hopeless end, afraid deep inside
Relief from my pain, the end a suicide?
The tears I've cried have left me blind
I yearb to find peace, a presence of mind.
I said I'd stand with you forever if you needed me
Help, arm in arm, hand over fist and carry you where necessary
like a fool I thought we'd walk tall forever all as one
When the going got tough you stopped pushing and turned to run.

I tried so hard, so sad to watch you drown.

You turned and pointed fingers at the truest friend you ever had,
And I prayed to God you'd find relief from the things that you made your
life sad.
We were down forever, together forever all as one,
But when the time came to step up and do it right, I saw you turn and run
I tried so hard, to help you hold it down
You never helped yourself, so sad to watch you drown.
I tried so hard, to help you save your life
You never helped yourself, shut the door and say good-bye.

You and me, eye to eye, hands tied together, live or die
Walk tall forever, all as one, never again, you turned to run.

All for None
Unjustified, persecution of my free mind.
I'm horrified, the cruel nature of you and your kind
Crucified for just trying to be myself.
Suicide, I'd rather die than live in your hell.

I will not break, I will not bend,
I will not go quietly, I will never bow down to them.

I close my eyes, I can see more clearly,
You criticize the things I hold dearly
You victimize because you fear me
It's your demise, you should have let me be.

You won't break me down.

The harder I swim against the tide the more it pulls me down
Feel the pressure on my life, as I struggle and fight not to drown.
Why do you, why do you try to break me, you'll never break me down.
I'll never let you break me, you'll never break me down.

The more I try to live my life the harder you are on me
There is no wrong there is no right, what will it take for you to see?
See the future, hate being unsure
Feel insecure, life without a cure
Invade my body like it was your own
A losing battle when challenged alone.

I'm sick and tired of losing someone I love and admire
I'm fucking tired of losing someone like you.

How can you feel it unless it happens to you?
Watching someone suffer there's nothing you can do.
Sit and wait with love and hate, emotions, they destroy,
I question my faith, how can a God, how can a God take?

How can I worship a God who takes life away
And leaves nothing but pain that never goes away.
I lie in bed each night, struggle to fall asleep,
Memories in my head, i pray my soul to keep.
Tried and true, I get up everyday and say,
Life's too short, no time to look the other way.
Gotta face what's inside, I gotta do away
With all the feelings behind my frozen heart, I pray.
I will never forget what it is that you did to me,
And I will never understand why
You insist upon inflicting pain and agony on me, forever everlasting.

There's no way out, I'll never break free
I will never forgive and forget how you abandoned me.

All my fucking life I've keep my head held high,
Respected myself through thick or thin,
Never asked anybody for anything.
I just want to live with peace and dignity
but you insist on trying to bring me down.

Where were you when I needed you,
You were never around.
I put my faith in you and you let me down.
Out of sight and out of mind, when you look at yourself do you find
Everything you want to be or do you see what I see.
Too late to change your life, step outside and say good-bye
To everything you left behind, what you seek you may not find.

As I shed my skin, I leave you behind
As I shed my skin, I go on to a better life.

Indecision fills my head, all the things I left unsaid,
My heart is letting go, my pain you'll never know.
If you love something set it free, what I love you took from me.
Try to look, but you can't see, try to put the past behind me.

How could you think it lasts forever, I sit and watch as you decline
Can't you see it's gone forever, out of sight and out of mind.

Twisted, broken, I sit and watch as you decline
Help me, help yourself, out of sight and out of mind.

I see you now in a different plane; broken, used up, pathetic, in pain,
You scream and fight, deny the shame, your selfish heart is the one to blame.
So much time has filled the space since we've been standing face to face.
Wasted breath I've tried to explain, still I see not a thing has changed.
Camouflage you close your eyes, hiding in plain sight
Wrapped tightly in blankets of lies, live whatever life you synthesize
Disguise the truth about yourself, bury it six feet deep,
Bring to life your deceit and stealth, lock the door and throw away the key.

Hide behind your lies, I seek through your disguise
It leads to your demise, I see it in your eyes.

Disarray your life slips into, falling apart at the seams,
You can't understand what's going on, who you once were is forever gone.
On and on the tangled web you weave, running from your past
You listen to whatever you want to believe
Too late karma comes around to you so fast.

All you do is lie, cheit deceive
Everyone you hate, need, believe
All you do is lie.

Flippin around the truth, you're slipping;
Tighten the noose around your neck is ripping,
Anything you wish, take a pen and script in
Manufacture the truth all you do is lie...
It's easy to say we scream for change when everyday we act the same.
How can a troubled government make us scapegoats
When we don't go out and vote.
We're spewing, spouting, condemnation

That the world we live in is a racist nation
Since our opinions contradict our statements,
We show our prejudiced affliliations.

Decline of civilization
A crime against humanity,
In all our lies and our self pity
It's time to stop our apathy.

You say you're a victim in pain
But you always prey on someone to blame.
You want to end the suffering for the hungry and the poor
When they ask for help you slam the door.
You want housing for the public good
But not in your own neighbourhood.
Industrial pollution makes you sick,
But you ain't got time for politics.

You want the world to be a better place
For your children, your people, your friends or race,
But selfish reasons drive us all, it's all for none and none for all.
The truth means nothing in a world full of lies,
Hypocrisy is man's demise.
Treated unfairly, you resent everybody that has so much
Of the things in life that were taken away from you.
So wrapped up in your misery, you never feel the love that surrounds you,
So wrapped up in your misery, you never notice that life passed you by.

You've waited all your life for the pain to go away
Lock yourself inside a world that makes you hate.

Left it all alone, ignored by the one you need attention from
For the things in life you never achieved on your own.
He can't be bothered to care for you, to hold and respect and be there for you,
He can't be a real father to you, some day he'll regret all time that went by.

You've waited all your life for the pain to go away
And I've always hated to see you hurt inside.
So much I try to help but you push me away,
Lock yourself inside a world that makes you hate
Locked inside a world of hate.

Beaten down for as long as you remember
Your life was analyzed, criticized and dismembered
Your hopes and dreams were discouraged and severed
the pain you've endured, the suffering you've weathered
You find it so hard to pull yourself together
To face the world to your fears you surrender,
You dream of a day you'll overcome and sever,
The cycle of abuse and the pain you've carried forever.

You're not alone, there's so many others that care for you,
So many things in our lives you helped us all get through
It means so much to me that you're here to share in my life
And calm my tears, it means so much to me that you're alive,
As you hold my child and wipe the tears from your eyes.
Apocalypse fills my head, fire and smoke turns the sky blood red,
Thermonuclear warhead, chemical warfare, disease widespread.
People kneel to the might of a figure head, mother earth lies silent on
her death bed
Into the fire the blind are led, five billion people will soon be dead.

War is no solution to the conflicts that we face
The end of our evolution, revolution, resist the hand of fate.

Armageddon, the end draws near, reality becomes our biggest fear
The future once seemed so free and clear, darkest hour, life disappears.
Punishment for greed and lust, mass genocide, holocaust
Foretold predictions of the end upon us, ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

We wage a ware which can't be won,
Apocalyptic suicide, what have we done?

Fire, one day a great fire shall come
Rain, a cleansing rain will wash away the scum
War, blood thirsty savages we've become
Revelation, judgment night and now we're done.

I pride myself on my sill to survive, i will fight to stay alive
We've got the power, destroy or create,
Terminate ourselves with our love for hate.
Every night I kneel down and pray,
There's nothing I can do to make it go away.
We march for peace and scream for change
But the dogs of war will forever remain.
Hey, yo fuck it. I'm rollin in a 4-barrel Camaro, toward the Tribore, eyes
narrow East River flow with marrow, along side the bridge zombies
pushing bodies in wheel barrels, bitches sterile follow on crutches of
rusted arrows try to breath through esophagus stuffed with sparrows,
the imperial, terrarembrium, the spherical, I turn the steering wheel
and pull into a 7-Eleven, met up with Billy, Danny, Rob and Evan from the
fucking Bio, yo we down for survival with acid raindrenched skin infest-
ed by termites, hermaphrodites on bikes swing spikes, think twice as I
try to pacify the pariah beside the driver and Shotgun kelly flips the
visor, time to devise a plan to reverse the demise of man before he's met
by the lastset of the sun, armageddon, no question to answer, disaster
results from behavior patterns. Earth lay raped, escape to saturn in a 
capsule, thirteen days of travel. Upon arrival plans unravel, imbalance
of chemical pheremones, clones with no genitals surround us, we can't
fuck them, no means of reproduction. I hear a scream and turn in that
direction, 33-23-33, I see seven, coming toward us, to reward us...

Disorder, enter the Millenium, time gets shorter
Disorder, behold a pale horse, new world disorder

Armageddon, a new death is dawnin', I like the smell of napalm in the
morning, four riders of the apocalypse descend from the north, a fear in
my eye, I behold a pale horse. Armageddon, no time to cry we all die as
the sky turns red, the missles start to fly. Factionstake action, eleven
families rule, millenium approaches, survival of the roaches. Body
armor will make you feel calmer or safe from the drama, deplow stealth
military bombers, ass out, get down on your knees and pray; illuminati
takes your soul on the eve of judgement day as the armies of darkness
irradicate life and we all go to hell and satan fucks your wife. Strife, ter-
ror without a minute to pray, human beings at odds, peace becomes dis-
aray, I'm humongous from Mad Max, Lord of the Wasteland with crazy ill
troops all at my command, don't you ever fall victim to my master plan,
I'm the dealer of death and here's your motherfuckin' hand.

I'm ready to take back whatever they sold ya cuz the scheme is a secret
so nobody ever told ya, an underground illuminated tribe of radicals
ready to take forth and feast like cannibals, animals, huffing the fumes
of rotting flesh exhumed from the corpses of presisdents, dissents and
fools with a one way ticket from the temple of doom, dark sides of
moons and ill atomic booms leave the earth all shakin and full of
wounds from Krakatoa east of Java to Camaroon, and coming soon to a
theater near you, the end of everything that we once knew.

The grand finale strap my body with TNT, take the president and his
bitch with me tearing down the walls of this conspiracy, fuck skull and
bones and illuminati. Irradication of the land of the free but I'm the
brave, ain't going out like a motherfuckin' slave, neobarbaric post-
apocalyptic war, ground zero brooklyn, the world at war.

I woke up, bar codes on my forehead, it's a living nightmare, my families
all dead. I gotta call Fred but no dail tone, I'm out for
self cuz I'm gonna die alone, this is madness I'm drooling with the lock
jaw, my elevator don't go to the top floor, I hold my breath cuz the O2
killed, I'm suffocating, I can't pay my oxigen bill. There's no tomorrow, I
wish a nigga murder me, the president declared a state of emergency.
The coast guard bangin' at my front door, I got homemade bombs if they
want war. There's no sun, they put a fucking chip in me, I'm a clone, mat-
ta fact it's a different me. I'm high tech kid, you get a bomb in the mail, so
if you die today then I'll see you in hell, I'll see you in hell, see you in hell.
So many times I've been lied to, blind to
The ways of the world I've been lied to, blind to
I never understand how this master plan speaking man to man
Could ever give a damn
Hypocritical stance don't make me piss in my pants
You never care unless there's money to make
I'll never sacrifice, I got no time in my life
To fuck around with something that I know is fake
You want to sell your soul, I'll never sell my soul

You never understand exactly what kind of man that I am
'till you wear my shoes
You think I envy your life but you never realize I always live the way that I choose
Feel so much regret but you never let
That make you live the truth
You point fingers and lie, the harsh truth you deny
Life is a game that you don't want to lose

You want to sell your soul, I'll never sell my soul

and be the one you disrespect and lie to
the one you really want to live your life through
the soul you sell is really your own
because I'm the only one you can never lie to

Sellout-you want to sell your soul
Sellout-you want to take control
Sellout-you want to play that role
Sellout-I'll never sell my soul

Sellout-sell your soul
Sellout-sell your soul

Sellout-sell your soul
Sellout-sell your soul

Since back in the day, I've been up in this game
Doing much of the same way, real, I never did it for fame or glory
For all these years, with no respect from my peers
I kept it real and told my story
Sellout-This shit is real and I can never be fake
I'll do whatever it takes within reason
Sellout-Made so many mistakes, never caught any breaks
I live and die for whatever I believe in

Sellout-You want to sell your soul, I'll never sell my soul
and be the one you disrespect and lie to
the one you really want to live your life through
the soul you sell is really your own
because I'm the only one you can never lie to

Sellout-you want to sell your soul
Sellout-you want to take control
Sellout-you want to play that role
Sellout-I'll never sell my soul
Population control. The only alternative left was to increase the death rate,
no one wanted to pick people out of a crowd and line them up for execution,
neither did they relish the possible consequences of an enraged public upon
discovering that they were being systematically murdered. A very short but
very deadly global war was contemplated. Something else had to be done that
would absolve the decision-makers of guilt, something that could be blamed
upon Mother Nature. The answer, a synthetic biological agent, an agent that
does not naturally exist for which no natural immunity could have been acquired.
The United States population was infected. The vaccine was administered by the
world health organization. Whatever causes AIDS was in the vaccine
I'm the first in line with a sentence on deathrow
Take a look around and feel the wind blow
And to those motherfuckers who decide our fate
Annihilate, come together and kill their hate
Cut their heads off and put 'em on a stake
Stuff their bodies in a barrel and throw 'em in the lake
Let the leaches feast on their own
Motherfucker you're wrong, your on your own

We all go to fight for our rights
Stand against those opposed
We all go to fight for our rights

Population Control
Population Control

Over population is the most serious threat to the whole future of our species.

Rip their arms off from limb to limb
Make them regret they thought they would win
Cut their tongues out to stop spreading lies
Their poisonous venom has kept me blind
Open your eyes don't you realize
Come together, it's time we rise

We all go to fight for our rights
Stand against those opposed
We all go to fight for our rights

We all go to fight for our rights
Stand against those opposed
We all go to fight for our rights

Population Control
Population Control
Population Control
Population Control

The vaccine was administered by the world health organization.

We all go to fight for our rights
Stand against those opposed
We all go to fight for our rights

We all go to fight for our rights
Stand against those opposed
We all go to fight for our rights

The cure will be administered to the survivors when it is decided
that enough people have died.
Pain inside me is taking over again
Wide awake I open my eyes into a nightmare of a life that I despise I gotta,
break it down to the bare essentials 'cause life's too short to be sentimental.
Twisting around inside my head so many crazy visions - am I better off dead?
Filled with dread - gun under the bed to clip all the motherfuckers trying
to keep me down, I ain't fuckin' around.
Wide awake my eyes are open I can't breathe my heart is choking and I can't speak
the words unspoken and I can't believe my life is broken again... (my life is broken)

Keep trying to tell myself "everything will be OK, everything will go my way"
'till life steps in and slaps on the strangle, tears flow and fists start to mangle.
I wake up screaming everyday, nobody pays attention when I'm writhing in pain,
I got a glitch in my brain I gotta break free from anxiety, I gotta let go of life
'cause it's killing me

Wide awake my eyes are open I can't breathe my heart is choking and I can't speak
the words unspoken and I can't believe my life is broken again...
My eyes are open, my heart is choking, on words unspoken, my life is broken again

I can't believe my life is broken apart again, I can't conceive my time was never
well spent, sick of everybody talking about the things they never do, motherfuckers
talking shit about who?
YOU!!

Pain inside me is taking over again

Wide awake my eyes are open I can't breathe my heart is choking and I can't speak
the words unspoken and I can't believe my life is broken again...
My eyes are open, my heart is choking, on words unspoken, my life is broken again

How many times can you ask for a chance and expect everybody to keep giving it,
forgiving it?
Realize this is the last time to waste away, deteriorate, decompose, and decline
I believe that when you're free you're never free, if you can't see
-I can never breathe easily- and I pray everyday, religiously, for freedom,
from this life in agony

Get away can't get away, I can't get away from you

So I wait and watch in fear of the memory of my life's tragic end in misery and
I prey everyday for salvation - for a reason, to suffer this suffocation...

Get away can't get away, I can't get away from you

Every moment I feel is agony, every breath I take is choking me, every thought I have
just fucks with me, will it take my death to break my soul free?

Can you feel my torment can you feel my anger can you feel the misery, all around me?

I'm alone and out of touch with what is real because no one can ever feel the way I feel
and I prey to stop the voices in my head forever, I feel so violated

Get away can't get away, I can't get away from you
a word to the wise, everything seems so contrived
I feel paralyzed, like my spirit has died
On the inside, looking for a brother to confide
Keep you lies to the side, be like "do or die"
DOWN FOR LIFE with our people, yes that shit is real
Only mother fuckers who know the real deal
You pick the wrong side, "you that shit is suicide"
Me and my brothers are unified
Throw your fist up, gimme some more
Are you raw? Hardcore, are you ready for war?
To our people who are real, we'll fight till we die,
We are the crew, unified

Everybody's gonna do what they got to do
To die for the crew, always down to see each other through
Representing to the fullest with my feet on the ground
When we say that we're down, we're not fuckin' around!
To the jealous motherfuckers who try to talk shit
You'll never say it to my face, you don't wanna get hit
If you aint with us, you're against us, ...ask those who have died
We are the crew, ...we are unified

All for one, one for all, unite and conquer, heed the call
Can you feel it? Deep inside, unified

It's like I wanna unify us all, and tear down the walls
I wanna blow up the white house, and the shopping malls
With our army of four, add a illion more
Fuck religion all the world will worship hardcore
And bow down a kneel before the power and might
And witness our tribal ceremony tonight
When we move the crowd, I feel something inside
You can never deny, we are unified
You keep me down, I don't need you no more
Bad feelings gone, you can't hurt me no more
I've spent most of my life fucking around
Now it's getting me too down
It's a waste of my time hangin here
It's too late to change me

You keep me down, I don't need you no more
Bad feelings gone, you can't hurt me no more
I've spent most of my life fucking around
Now it's getting me too down
It's a waste of my time hangin here
It's too late to change me

I'm set in my own ways,
Life's too short to worry about your say
I'm at the end of my rope when I'm with you
I don't think I'll make amends
When you get outta my light,
It's too bad that I won't miss you
Now it's time I move on with my life
I doubt I will say amen

I'm set in my ways, it's my way to live the way I love to live my life
My choice to live my life
My choice to live my life
But my life is short, it's coming to an end
I doubt I'll make amends, I doubt I'll say amen...

I'll never make amends, I'll never say amen...

You keep me down, I don't need you no more
Bad feelings gone, you can't hurt me no more
I've spent most of my life fucking around
Now it's getting me too down
It's a waste of my time hangin here
It's too late to change me

                                                                    
Bring it on, here comes the mutherfucking pain
There's a war in my, I can't take the strain
Insane in the brain runnin like a freight train
I feel no remorse, I feel no pain
I'm the punisher kid an I'm taking you out
Say you prayers son, it's the final death bout
If I gotta take you out it don't mean a thing
I'll be the last man standing

Bring it on, here comes the mutherfucking pain
There's a war in my, I can't take the strain
Insane in the brain runnin like a freight train
I feel no remorse, I feel no pain
I'm the punisher kid an I'm taking you out
Say you prayers son, it's the final death bout
If I gotta take you out it don't mean a thing
I'll be the last man standing

Southside vato, anybody killer
Body baggin fools try to scheme for the skriller
I kill like old patrone tequila
Your ass will be next if you try to deliver
Any actions that are pre-meditated
Snuff whole crews cuz that shit is out dated
Bring my enemies to his knees and I'm blasting
Sen Dog will be the last man standing

Bring it on, here comes the mutherfucking pain
There's a war in my, I can't take the strain
Insane in the brain runnin like a freight train
I feel no remorse, I feel no pain
I'm the punisher kid an I'm taking you out
Say you prayers son, it's the final death bout
If I gotta take you out it don't mean a thing
I'll be the last man standing

My blood starts pumping, racin through my veins
I'm a cold blooded killah stalking my prey
The taste of blood gets me high
I'll fight to the finish, I'll fight till I die

I rise and stand against anybody or anything
In the end I will be, I'll be the last man standing

I'm gonna crash and bash and smash and bust your ass in half
Feel the wrath, I'll blast you if I have to
So bow down, respect to the master
I'm the last man and my name is Disaster

Bring it on, here comes the mutherfucking pain
There's a war in my, I can't take the strain
Insane in the brain runnin like a freight train
I feel no remorse, I feel no pain
I'm the punisher kid an I'm taking you out
Say you prayers son, it's the final death bout
If I gotta take you out it don't mean a thing
I'll be the last man standing
Hate, fuck , fight, kill
We teach our children how to act in this world by living what they see on TV.
Murder, rape war, disease, the rules of society

Hate, fuck , fight, kill
We teach our children how to act in this world by living what they see on TV.
Murder, rape war, disease, the rules of society

A race of murderers with no remorse and no respect for humanity,
We wonder why our children kill hate and lie, with no responsibility

Hate, fuck , fight, kill
We teach our children how to act in this world by living what they see on TV.
Murder, rape war, disease, the rules of society

Take it back yo you better listen-I'm on a mission, I'll tell you what your missin,
It's time to start living in reality so fuck the world before the world fucks me
Fuck the world for fuckin me

We live so many days of our selfish live making money by whatever means
For sex, drugs, our sadistic needs we live and die so selfishly

Hate, fuck , fight, kill
We teach our children how to act in this world by living what they see on TV.
Murder, rape war, disease, the rules of society
"The confrontation was not created by the police, the confrontation was created by
the people who charged the police. The policeman isn't there to create disorder,
the policeman is there to preserve disorder."

DOMINATION
You can't get me
DOMINATION
You'll never get me

Keepin us thinking of how to pay our bills while "they" roam through our lifes with flashlights
Keep our attention away from issues that "really" effect our society
While "they" are busy creating problems and offering solutions!
Keep us busy with our "simple" lifes
While "they " make descions in disguise of our benefit.

DOMINATION
You can't get me
DOMINATION
You'll never get me

Keep us in the dark about the system keeps us confused and distracted
Turn you shoulder, I'll never give them total fucking control.
Keep us preoccupied with bullshit while our defenses are lowered
Tighten the reigns and gain control
Confusion, confusion brings profit

DOMINATION
You can't get me
DOMINATION
You'll never get me

Broken backs and bloody knuckles
Forgotten fathers and long lost uncles
Who fought for freedom through piles of lies
It was for our rights our ancestors died
War brings profit and profit breeds greed
For those who died in vain, god speed
And to those who rewrite the constitiution
Fuck off and die mutherfucker, it's our revolution
It's our revolution
REVOLUTION

"sex and race have been the primary ways of organizing human beings into superior
and inferior groups"

just because YOU are not paranoid does not mean that THEY are not out to get YOU
who are the puppets and who is pull's the strings, keep us ignorant as they choose the kings
Those who will not use their brains are no better off than those who have no brains
so this mindless school of jellyfish become a useful beast of burden
I can't get this fucking feeling outta my head
You've gone and pushed me too far now I wish you dead
Faith was something that I used to have
But time has covered all the innosence with lies

PUSHING, PULLING, DO THIS, DO THAT
WOULD'VE KNOWN WHAT I KNOW NOW, IT'S A TRAP

Rape and take from me what I make
For you it's a job, for me a mistake
Machines are made to destroy all that's sane
I'll never forget you or your fucking name

I can't take this no more, it's time that I hunt you down and kill you

I've taken this as far as I'm gonna take it
You get in my face, I'll fucking kill you
Stay outta my way, let me be alone
Get out of my life, I don't need you

I've taken this as far as I'm gonna take it
I'm gonna find a way to fucking kill you
You pushed and pushed and pushed me over the edge
Now I'm searchin for a way to have you fuckin head
Watch the life flow from your veins as I get hard
Think of all the pain you caused me as I discharge
My blood is pumping fast through the heart that you scarred
As the bodies of my enemies float on by

Now I've got this picture floating in head, you lying in front of me covered in red
Satisfaction from all I've achieved, the smell of your rotting flesh, I heave
It's apparent to me, that you are happy to be,
Stumbling around in your bullshit fantasy,
Where everybody wears this phony ass grin
And nobody's ugly, or willing to look in-side
The mirror, they hide from the terror
That the world is not a utopian place
It's iller than ever with scumbags and killers
As the head motherfucker I spit in your face
I'll bet they write us off as a bunch of illiterates
With nothing to say, and think that we're ignorant
Afraid of our might, so they label us belligerant
How can they be so motherfuckin arrogant?
To think we'll stand by and take this shit
We are the strong and they the insignificant
So here's my reply to your condescending statements
All you fuckin faggots can suck my dick

Sick of all the lies, I despise all you fuckin fakes
Comes as no surprise, your demise, you fuel my hate

Hatred-anger contempt-plastic

You commercial motherfuckers coming out like your hard
You wanna talk shit lets pull some cards
The mike is my blowgun, spittin' venomous darts
I'm calling you all out, and you know who you are
These plastic people on this plastic planet
Are under my skin, and no one gives a fucking shit
Pop genocide, my solution seems drastic
You've got no heart, I know that you're plastic

I am the voice of hate!!!
Why are you all so fake?
I am the voice of hate!!!
You're plastic
The fires of hate burn deep inside
You swear it's the truth, but I know you lied
I never thought that you would try to take me, ...break me
For all the years of pain and tears
Where you preyed upon my biggest fears
You didn't really think I could forgive you??? Did you???
I did what I thought a man should do
But looking back, I'm glad we're through
You took and took from me till I was broken,
With selfish ways you've made you bed
I think of you as if you're dead
You held me back for years but now its over

You didn't really think I could forgive you? Did you?

All my love has turned to hate
You've crossed the line, now it's too late
Accept your fate

                                                                    
Take a good hard look at yourself as the world that you live in you now destroy
Don't cry, just ask yourself why you never cared until you started to die
World on fire 
Give me one good reason to respect the laws that you obey
Step back and watch it burn as the life you live just slips away 
Manipulate the ignorant hordes into hating each other and fighing your wars
With no respect for the people who died and no assistance for the families that cry
World on fire 
You expect me to believe that you shoot and kill in the name of peace?
You fuel the hateful twisted minds of the wretched, cruel, diseased
Give me one good reason to respect the lies that you obey, step back and 
watch it burn as the life you live just slips away
Don't let it slip away 
Fill our minds with conspiracy they create the hate that we believe 
Pollute our lives with your lies and trechery, show our children who is their enemy
While you sit in your oil fields and count all the money that you fucking steel
I welcomed you with open arms
To share my pride and glory
You said you searched for a better life
At least that was your story
You caught me off guard with your deception
And now I'm just seeing red
I rid this world of your fucking infection
Never forgive, never forget 
Never forgive, never forget
Eye for an eye, life or death
Never forgive, never forget
Kill or be killed with no regret 
I am justice and I am the law
Excectioner, judge and jury
You preyed on human tragic flaw
But now you face my fury
A favor to the world, I erase your life
Covered in blood I dance to your death
For crimes against humanity, I'll finish the fight
Never forgive, never forget 
Now it's killing time, vengeance is mine 
You're the lowest form of fucking life
I dare even call you human
My heart breeds hatred, terror and spite 
My revenge will be your ruin
May your family die a thousand deaths
No remorse, no idol threats
Clock strikes twelve, I take my respect
Never forgive, never forget
The taste of blood erases all the guilt
Tear down the walls and all that was built
As history repeats we kill without thought
Do onto others is what we're taught 
I can't go on I'm losing my faith
Lost all hope in the human race
Walking tall, kill or be killed
Stronger than ever we will rebuild 
Scavenging for something more
Something wordth me dying for
All is fair in love and war
We will avenge and even the score 
Kill, Kill or be killed
Revenge evens the score
Death for a cause
Live for nothing more 
We gotta stand up and fight, let's ignite
We gotta put our shit behind us, it's time to unite
Like dynamite we'll explode andd take back what is ours
And never let them win again, die you fucking cowards
The cold winds of war, numb the nations soul
They taste the bitter fear as a grim future appears 
Criminal leaders building hate
Under siege the world segregates
The day has come, the end is at hand
The earth a corpse, a barren waste land
Cower in fear, humanity prays
Blood upon, our final days 
No god can grant any salvation
There's no escaping incineration 
Bound and tortured, heads kicked in
Children slaughtered, heads kicked in
Nations ruptured, heads kicked in
Lives aborted, heads kicked in 
In this world terror reigns supreme
The earth a carcass with its bones picked clean
Inpending doom, too little too late
Clenched inside the fist of fate
With savage bloodlust, we feed on the kill
Self destruction, our only true skill
Will our children ever get a clean slate
Barbaric society, united in hate 
The charred remains of war machines
The lifeless twisted bodies
Blind eyes that peer from their heads
The crowded carraiges of the dead
Beaten senseless in everyway
Life dissappears, get's blown away
New world chaos in disarray
A second to die and forever to pray 
The time has come to push to fight, to die, to live
This time I take the fall
Don't sort them out just kill them all
Just never push my back against the wall 
Beaten senseless, violent relentless
No hope defenseless, beaten senseless 
Now you pushed me over the edge
Can't take it no more, I'm seeing red
Beaten senseless over the head
Never gonna stop until your all fucking dead 
Vengeance is my only thought
Rage, abuse, the wars I've fought
Self preservation is self taught
Turn your back and you'll be caught 
Crushing pain intensity a violent beating senselessly so cruel, agony
Broken spirit, broken home, a broken man who can not cope with pain, misery
You want to break me down every fuckin day of your miserable life,
You try to take away everything, everything from me
Beaten down by society, torn apart by humanity
There's no way out of this misery
I'll fight forever fearlessly 
You can take away the weapon from my hand
But you can never change who I am
Make my stand 
Control the money, control the people
The kind of the wasteland rules
The power to conquer a dying nation lies in the hands of a fool
To give your life in the name of a cause only feeds the fire fuel
As god screams, he moans in regret
Is vengence so fucking cruel 
I have seen the way you've wrecked my fellow man
So I gotta fight to save myself
Make my stand 
The time has come to destroy anyone
That tries to stop me, my fight has just begun 
Motherfucker you could never ever step to me
I too will die for what I believe
Come out of the shadows and show your fucking face 
You half a man
Step up and face me toe to toe
Knowledge and power blow for blow
You're a liar, a coward, a thief and a fool
Now I make my stand
Open your eyes motherfucker 
In this world of bullshit and lies
Jealously and hatred run rampant
Simple minded fould, cower in fear
To the slaughter the weak are branded
Eyes closed tight and ears held shut
To what is going on right around you
A dull pain deep in your guy
With fists or words I pound you 
I hate your apathy
I'm gonna make you see
For all humanity as you are on your knees
You say how can it be,
You thought you held the key
But you never cared about me
Your death will set me free
There's a riot inside my mind
The agony fuels my fire of hate 
Fed up with your conservative views
Your concerns just seem too little too late
Apathy, you live for yourself
In the guilded cage of your insolent mind
I cut off your head in the name of what's right
And free the ideas of human kind
What's inside my state of mind, can you deal with reality?
Who pays the price for hating, who decides our final fate?
Can you reall trust the government, can you really believe the truth?
Will you die for what you believe or will you suffer like a fool? 
Sacrifice, penalty
You gave your life
And paid the price of hate 
Is there anyone you can count on when it's time to do things right?
Or are these people just fucking maggots sucking you for all your life?
Who looks out for our best interests, who cares about their fellow man?
Or are we all just fucking animals fucking each other anytime we can? 
Who's gonna beg for mercy
When the time to fight back comes
Get down on bended knee and pray
For our salvation
You hate me and I hate you back
But there's a difference between you and me
Ignorance and fear pervade your small mind 
You forfeit your right to live in peace
I want you to know that I will never rest
For a signle moment of your miserable life
Surgically I cut you from my world
You are my cancer and I am the knife 
I cut you off, forever and a day
Never again will I look your way
You beg for mercy on your knees
No remorse, you're dead to me 
You're dead to me, you're fucking dead to me 
I gave you light to live in my world
But one last time you pushed too far
You selfish motherfucker, now the damage is done
You can never turn back from all out war
You can lock me down, but I hold the key
Cuz there's nothing in this world that can ever break me
Heart and mind strong, I forever stay free
My last words to you, you're dead to me 
I watch you stumble
I hear you fall in the dark
Try as you may, you just can't see you're too blind
Trapped in the mirror of your dark soul
You fall again, this time from grace...
You land alone
Burning
I'm living on hallowed ground 
Right before my eyes the darkened skies hide muffeled cries
Right before my eyes the hidden lies disguised as new york died
Right before my eyes propaganda flies 
You can run but you can't hide 
Right before my eyes politicians lied to save their hide
Right before my eyes ny cried way, everybody died
Refuse to deny, here come the lies 
I'm living on hallowed ground 
Right before my eyes, ignore the cries
Millions wonder why right before my eyes
Justify the cries of those crucified
Instead you lie, you ignore their cries 
Fullfill the prophecy and kill the enemy
Agree or disagree, where lies our destiny?
Enemy, an effigy
History for all to see
Infany, irony
Misery loves loyalty 
Never forgive, never forget
In this world of death and pain
The memory remains,
The dragon that can't be slain

I live life like a warrior
Taking control of everything and everyone
Who stands in front of me weakly
Unafraid to stand my ground
I don't fuck around
Get in my face and I'll knock you down
Pound for pound the undisputed king of these streets
I never ran taking shit from no man
I've fought em all, win or lose, do or die
I'll never give up till I'm asleep in the sky

No one can stop me from living my life my way
My beliefs are all I've got and I'll
Take them to my grave
Don't try and help me, just stay the fuck outta my way
I live for myself and I'll die by what I say

I'll fight to the death for friends and family
Defend their honor or till there's nothing left of me
Like it or not, you can never forget me
Unafraid to show this world
How it should be
It's my life, my way motherfucker
Fuck with me you gonna pay motherfucker
I swear to God I'll never stop
I'll fight for the top until I fuckin' drop

No one can stop me from living my life my way

My beliefs are all I've got and I'll
Take them to my grave
Don't try and help me, just stay the fuck outta my way
I live for myself and I'll die by what I say

My life's been nothing but a struggle
Since the day I opened my eyes
And now I've gotta fight so hard just to get ahead
Provide and survive
Everyday I smash through the lies that
Are twisting me around
This life we live is slipping away but
I'll never let you down
'Cause my days maybe numbered, but
I'll never let you forget
Who I was and what I stood for
A life with no regrets...

A life with no regrets...

No one can stop me from living my life my way
My beliefs are all I've got and I'll
Take them to my grave
Don't try and help me, just stay the fuck outta my way
I live for myself and I'll die by what I say
I'll never stop believing it
Fighting for achieving it
From the truth I cannot hide
The fire burns inside

We've come so far can't let it go
There's nothing that I better know
It kills me now to watch you die
The Fire burns inside of me

What do you stand for with nothing to say
You've lost the ability to fight for your way
If you live for nothing you'll never know why
The fire burns inside

You never had it - never will
Living off of other's skills
Inside of you, your thoughts collide
The fire still burns inside

You made your bed now go to sleep
Save us from your misery
You gave it up - your dreams have died
The fire still burns inside of me

The dreams inside of you died
You live a life of lies
But I'll never forget why
The fire burns inside
It's time we come together to fight and survive
Overthrow the controlling forces, the greed and the lies

Realize if this shit don't stop we're all gonna die
Come to our senses and recognize
The truth inside the lies

It’s time we separate the brave men from the cowards
Unafraid to fight and die, freedom will be ours

Realize if this shit don't stop we're all gonna die
Come to our senses and recognize
The truth inside the lies

Spit it in my face, don’t look me in the eye, do what’s good for me
Life to my face while so many die, killing to be free

It’s time we force the leaders to tell the truth or die
Admit their reckless engagement or pay the final price

Realize if this shit don't stop we're all gonna die
Come to our senses and recognize
The truth inside the lies
You point your finger at me
You’re drowning in hypocrisy
You think the world can’t see
The truth’s your last reality
I point the finger at you
You’re a piece of shit you know it’s true
My words, my fist and the hard cold truth
Beat yourself till your black and blue

I’m filled with hate (hate)
Gonna make you feel my pain
My rage, my agony 
Is driving me insane

For all the times you tried to hide 
You can’t run from the truth inside
There is no cure for your disease
Your infection brings you to your knees
I look at you with such disgust
Violence is my only lust
You got no heart and you lost my trust
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust

I’m filled with hate (hate)
Gonna make you feel my pain
My rage, my agony 
Is driving me insane
I’ve got a way to move 
It’s eating me alive
It’s you or me motherfucker
Only the strong survive

Hating, raging
I am 
Filled with hate
Smashing, bashing
I am 
Filled with hate

And now the end is near 
You’re a victim of your pain and fear
I pity you in your disgrace
You’ve just spit in your own face
You beat me down but you’re okay
With no one but yourself to blame
You hang your sorry head in shame
But you still can’t see through all your pain

I’m filled with hate (hate)
Gonna make you feel my pain
My rage, my agony 
Is driving me insane
I’ve got a way to move 
It’s eating me alive
It’s you or me motherfucker
Only the strong survive

Hating, raging
I am 
Filled with hate
Smashing, bashing
I am 
Filled with hate
Standing together, side by side
Wrong or right we fought with pride
Against the world we fought as one
Never forgetting who we are
Devotion lies beneath the scars
Forever to you I’m devoted

You know with all my devotion
I died inside with emotion
A soulless being who never won
Forever loosing bet never unsung

Something to live for that gave me strength
Harness the energy and bottle the angst
Hold onto our dreams and never let go
Devoted forever more than you know

Standing together, side by side
Wrong or right we fought with pride
Against the world we fought as one

With my wasted youth I threw it all away
Clouded with confusion I lost my fucking way

The power to overcome is hard to find
A mountain of lies that’s left behind
Without you here I’d still be blind
Devoted forever in my heart and mind

I’m afraid of all the shit I did
The ones I hurt when I was a kid
And all the things that I can’t take back
Will come back to haunt me and take my life away

Devoted to you for all you’ve been
You’ve always been there for me, thick or thin
You take my side I’m wrong or right
Devoted to you for all you’ve been
You’ll never break it away from me
Take away everything
Break it away from me
Take it away

For all the years the pain and fears
My life, my blood, my sweat, my tears
Something to stand for you can never take away
This is who I am until my dying day

Refuse the situation
Release the agony inside
I can’t appreciate this life, this misery

You’ll never break it away from me
Take away everything
Break it away from me
Take it away

Something inside which helps me to rise
Above the pain, the death, the hate, the lies
I’m the real fucking deal
This ain’t no disguise
Think I’m fucking around
Take a look in my eyes

Refuse the situation
Release the agony inside
I can’t appreciate this life, this misery

You’ll never break it away from me
Take away everything
Break it away from me
Take it away

This is for real – this is who we are
This ain’t no fantasy
I’ll die for what I stand for
My word is everything
You want a piece of me
You stupid motherfucker why can’t you see
You’ll never take it away from me
Away from me
I wanna be remembered for all the things I've done
Win or lose, I never gave a fuck if I died young
Live fast, die young, that's the way I liked to live
Buy now, pay later, throw away and never give

Live life, take it by the balls and never look back
You can feel the power growing every day
Getting stronger by the minute gonna blow a vein
Survival of the fittest, I'm a realist
I know where I've been, I know I will exist
In the future I know I'm gonna be the man
I'm gonna climb to the top and make my stand

Kings never die
You will live forever for what you did
Warriors never lie
Cause your word is all you have to give

A man's merit is measured by what he did
No one writes a book about a failed man
Who never lived
Live life, take it by the balls and never look back
Cause when we're dead and gone the past lives on

Kings never die
They watch over me as I fight to live
Kings are crucified
Evil thrives where cowards die

Never look back
My name will never die
Yellow rat bastard no time for you
I’m busy being all I can, doing what I do
The pride of a man lies in the hearts of his loved ones
Not in what he buys or collects like he’s won
Nowhere to turn, no air to breath
Grasping at your throat take the backdoor and leave
Collapsing souls hold anything they can
Trying to survive, you turned and ran

Coward stand up for yourself and be a man
You ran instead of doing what it is you gotta do
You lose everything and every ounce of respect
For you I got nothing, you ain’t worth weight in spit

You can run but you can’t hide motherfucker
Looking down the barrel of a gun in your side
With your cold feet and sweaty palms
You turned your back on what is right
Respect you lack
Be a man, it’s time to stand tall, hold your own
Do on to other as you’d have done to you
Grow a backbone, stand alone and care for yours
Cuz in the end that’s all your gonna really have

I’m proud of who the fuck I am
I never turned my back like a coward and ran
It’s the fucking things we do in life that make you a man
So do the right thing and take a stand

Don’t stand alone
Stand tall, hold your own, be proud
And take a stand
Make a name for yourself, be loud
And rise above
Don’t let the bullshit keep you down
Make a stand
And leave your mark in this dying land

Be a man it’s time to stand tall, hold your own
Do on to others as you’d have done to you
Grow a backbone, stand alone, care for yours
Cuz in the end that’s all your gonna really have
The demons loved to eat from the inside out
They didn’t like me cuz they spit me out
The shell of rotting flesh always wore me out
Sometimes in life, you gotta do without

Rising from the gutter I pushed ahead
I kept my nose clean even when it bled
I always walked tall no matter what was said
I’ve never looked back, now I look ahead

To the grave I take all that I’ve learned in life
Good or bad, dark or eveil, black or white

I never sold my soul

That was how it used to be but this is now
Way back in the day we didn’t know how
Loud is how we talked and proud is how we walked
Only the strongest survived on the block
Fucking with the bull will get you stuck good
Heavy on my word is how I stood
Time’s moved on, we ain’t kids no more
I’ll never look back as I close the door

To the grave I take all that I’ve learned in life
Good or bad, dark or eveil, black or white

I never sold my soul

Can’t you see it, you’re too blind to
I don’t need you, I’m moving on
Too much bullshit to have to deal with
I don’t want to, I’m moving on
I’m gonna lose it, can’t take the shit
I don’t have to, I’m moving on
I can’t fight it, it’s overtaking me

Man will do what man will do
Man’s gotta work to pay his due
Some things change and some things don’t
Some will do and some fucks don’t
I take pride through and through
I’ll never change, nothing new
To the grave with all I do
To the grave with all I do
I work hard everything I need comes to be
I can look in the mirror and smile back at me
I get up and go to work, I’m proud of what I see
I stand tall, cuz hard work sets me free

I drag myself out of bed each day to earn my keep
Each day gets harder but I won’t quit cuz I ain’t weak
The trick is to make it easy, don’t complain just grit your teeth
And do what you gotta do to pay your fucking bills this week

Work hard, everything you need will come to you
Get up, go to work, be proud of what you do
Stand tall, brush it off, grow some thick skin
Working hard set’s you free, state of discipline

I keep my head above the water, I fight for life
Sometimes I take it on the chin, hold my breath and dive
The days get harder and longer, blood and sweat I
Give working hard cuz nothing’s free until I die

Work hard, everything you need will come to you
Get up, go to work, be proud of what you do
Stand tall, brush it off, grow some thick skin
Working hard set’s you free, state of discipline

Doing work to live or live to work
Missing out on time with friends and family hurts
It does no good to hurt the ones
You hold close inside

I kill myself from inside out and die

You know I’m always there when you need me
I’m always there for you

I’m always in your corner fighting for your name
I always got your back

Get up, get to work,
Bust my ass all day
Drag my tired ass back home
Fast food, no time to rest, quick play
Close my eyes, it’s time to die

                                                                    
YOU THINK YOU KNOW ME FUCK YOU
AND THE LIES YOU HIDE BEHIND AND JUDGE
THE EMPTY PROMISES OF JUSTICE
WHO HOLDS A GRUDGE
I FIGHT FOR MINE, FOR WHAT I BELIEVE

IN A WORLD OF PAIN, YOU CAN NEVER CONCEIVE
CUZ YOU AND I BOTH KNOW THE TRUTH
THAT YOU, CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH

ALL YOUR LIFE AND ALL YOUR DAYS,
YOU ARE NEVER GONNA CHANGE YOUR WAYS
I'M NEVER GONNA REST UNTIL YOU PAY,
VENGEANCE IS MINE

IT’S MY VENDETTA MY WAR
MY RAGE EXPLODES ON YOU FULL FORCE
TIMES UP, THERE'S NO REGRET AND NO REMORSE
MY LIFE, MY WAY, MY FAMILY
THE TASTE OF BLOOD IS WHAT I CRAVE
WHAT'S RIGHT, WHAT'S WRONG, WHAT YOU DID TO ME
I TAKE MY VENGEANCE, TO YOUR GRAVE

ALL YOUR LIFE AND ALL YOUR DAYS,
YOU ARE NEVER GONNA CHANGE YOUR WAYS
I'M NEVER GONNA REST UNTIL YOU PAY,
VENGEANCE IS MINE

YOUR ACTIONS BRING FORTH MY RAGE
VENDETTA - GOING TO THE GRAVE
MY JUSTICE - WILL COME IN TIME
VENGEANCE IS MINE
WE SYPHON EARTHS BLOOD
AND DRAIN IT INTO HER SEAS
ALL IN THE NAME OF PROGRESS
MISGUIDED OPPORTUNITY
THIS WORLD WE LIVE IN TOGETHER
GETS DIRTIER EVERYDAY
EVERYTHING WE MAKE WE THROW OUT,
RECYCLE OR WASTES AWAY

DECAY, FALLING INTO DECAY
EACHDAY, SACRED WORLD WASTE AWAY

NOT ANOTHER DAY GOES BY
WE DESTROY OUR HOME
IS THIS A SIGN OF THE TIMES WE'RE IN
OR IS THIS THE FALL OF ROME
AS WE COLLAPSE, POLITICIANS LIE
GET FAT, GET RICHER AS THEY WATCH US DIE
STAND BY, WATCH IT FROM THE SIDELINES, FUCK NO
DON'T DO IT, FIGHT THEM FROM THE INSIDE

DECAY, FALLING INTO DECAY
EACHDAY, SACRED WORLD WASTE AWAY

COLLAPSING SYSTEM,
DECLINING MORAL VALUE
SOCIAL BREAK DOWN,
IS THERE ANYTHING WE CAN DO?
DOWNTRODDEN MASSES STRUGGLE
TOGETHER IN UNITY
IS THIS THE END OF OUR LIVES AS WE KNOW
BURNING HELL FOR ALL ETERNITY

DECAY, FALLING INTO DECAY
EACHDAY, SACRED WORLD WASTE AWAY
Today's the day to make amends
For all the mistakes I've made
It never ends, it never ends.

By lying if I said I had no regrets
The pain inside my heart
Never forgets, never forgets.

From sickness I am torn,
Through suffering reborn
No compassion, no control,
Only black inside my soul.

From sickness I am torn,
Through suffering reborn
No compassion, no control,
Only black inside my soul.

One more time, maybe the last,
Give me one more shot,
Another chance,
Just one more chance.

Before I die I need to say,
I'm letting go of all the pain
And rage inside my head.

From sickness I am torn,
Through suffering reborn
No compassion, no control,
Only black inside my soul.

From sickness I am torn,
Through suffering reborn
No compassion, no control,
Only black inside my soul.

The world has become so negative.
It's live and let die, never forgive
Been there myself,
I feel your pain,
But the moment you give in you seal your fate

I can never deny my lies
Release the shame
And pain rotting in my soul
Forgive the errors of my ways
Forgive myself for letting go
Of all the black inside my soul

Shatter my world
It's so effortless
The realization left me breathless
Been down so long,
I forgot the truth
When you hate yourself
You're always gonna lose.

So long I suffered out of control
The darkness would never allow me to ever let go, never let go

Now I see life a different way,
The most important
Friends and family never betray.

From sickness I am torn,
Through suffering reborn
No compassion, no control,
Only black inside my soul.

From sickness I am torn,
Through suffering reborn
No compassion, no control,
Only black inside my soul.
LIFE IS HARD, BELIEVE ME I KNOW IT'S TRUE
ALWAYS FIGHTING BACK THE PAIN, I'M BREAKING THROUGH
I'LL NEVER GIVE UP, MY HEART REMAINS TRUE
IT'S ALL I CAN DO
RECOGNIZE THE PAIN THAT LIES INSIDE
IT'S ALWAYS LOOKING FOR SOMEWHERE ELSE TO HIDE
YOUR SOUL IS EMPTY, YOUR MIND IS TERRORIZED
AND FULL OF LIES

AND I GOTTA TAKE MYSELF AWAY
I GOTTA BREAK MYSELF AWAY FROM YOU
AND YOUR DISEASE, IT'S KILLING ME

I REMEMBER HOW IT FELT TO BE ALONE
YOU WOULD RUN AWAY, YOU'RE NEVER COMING HOME
BLOODY KNUCKLES AND SO MANY BROKEN BONES
NOW YOU'RE ALONE
IT'S SO HARD TO FEEL YOU'RE PART OF ME
I KNOW DEEP INSIDE YOU NEVER MEANT TO BE
SOMEONE WHO WOULD HURT HIS FAMILY
HOW CAN IT BE

AND I GOTTA TAKE MYSELF AWAY
I GOTTA BREAK MYSELF AWAY FROM YOU
AND YOUR DISEASE, IT'S KILLING ME

PLEASE I'M SO MAD INSIDE, I HOPE YOU'LL FORGIVE ME
'CAUSE I GOTTA LET YOU KNOW WHAT'S INSIDE OF ME
PLEASE I'M SO SCARED INSIDE, I HOPE YOU'LL FORGIVE ME
'CAUSE I GOTTA LET YOU KNOW WHAT'S INSIDE OF ME

AND I GOTTA TAKE MYSELF AWAY
I GOTTA BREAK MYSELF AWAY FROM YOU
AND YOUR DISEASE, IT'S KILLING ME
IT'S KILLING ME, IT'S KILLING ME
WE SPEAK A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE
BUT I KNOW YOU FEEL THE SAME
WE ALL SEE THE MESS WE'RE IN
AND SCREAM FOR THINGS TO CHANGE
UNLESS THE DOWNWARD PATH WE'RE ON
TAKES A DIFFERENT TURN
WE'RE DESTINED TO REPEAT THE PAST,
A LESSON NEVER LEARNED

WE FIGHT FOR FREEDOM - A CALL FOR REVOLUTION
THEY ARE THE PROBLEM - WE ARE THE SOLUTION

THEIR HYPOCRISY HAS ENLIGHTENED ME
THE WALKING CONTRADICTION THAT THEY CLAIM TO BE
THE PUPPETS PROMISE LIES, MORE LIES
THE ONLY TRUTH THEY CANT DISGUISE

THE SILENT ENEMY, THE CLOAKED AND SHADED
MANIPULATOR, THE GREAT NEGATOR
APOCALYPTIC WORLD WAR LOOMS
HANDS OF TIME, COUNTDOWN DOOM

STAND UP AND FIGHT FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE
IF WE DON'T DO SOMETHING WE'RE ALL TO BLAME
BRING DOWN THE EVIL CORRUPTION AND GREED
IT'S ALWAYS THE SAME GAME WITH DIFFERENT NAMES

DON'T LOSE CONTROL AND GIVE UP YOUR FREEDOM - RISE UP IN ARMS, WHO THE FUCK NEEDS 'EM
THE RIGHT TO FIGHT IS MY GOD GIVEN RIGHT - DON'T GIVE UP YOUR FREEDOM, RISE UP AND FIGHT

WORLD WIDE DEATH, NO DISTINCTIONS
MAN'S DESTINY IS SELF EXTINCTION
THE PULSE OF PROPAGANDA, PUMPING CONFUSION
OOZING CHAOS THROUGH THEIR ILLUSIONS
ANNIHILATION ON ITS WAY HERE
OBLITERATION OF THE ENTIRE SPHERE

IS IT TOO LATE, IS ALL HOPE LOST? - CAN WE STOP THE NEXT HOLOCAUST?
IT'S TIME TO COME ALIVE, WAKE THE DEAD, TERRORIZE
RIP APART THE PAIN INSIDE, COME ALIVE, COME ALIVE
THERE'S NO NEED TO HATE ON ME, CELEBRATE THE FACT WE'RE FREE
RIP APART THE PAIN INSIDE, COME ALIVE, COME ALIVE NOW

DON'T WASTE YOUR FUCKING TIME
'CAUSE I DON'T NEED YOUR FUCKING LIES

I LIVE LIFE WITH NO REGRET
COME ALIVE, WAKE THE DEAD
LIVE LIFE WITH NO REGRET
COME ALIVE, WAKE THE DEAD NOW

LIVE YOUR LIFE, COME ON RISE UP
BEFORE YOUR DEMISE

TRAPPED INSIDE YOUR MISERY, ESCAPING REALITY
OPEN UP YOUR BLINDED EYES, COME ALIVE, COME ALIVE
LIFT YOURSELF UP WHEN YOU CAN, LIFT UP ALL YOUR FELLOW MAN
THE TIME HAS COME TO REALIZE, COME ALIVE, COME ALIVE NOW

THE CYCLE OF LIFE, FIGHT TIL YOU DROP
YOU GOTTA LIVE IT UP WITH EVERYTHING YOU GOT
STOP THE BLEEDING, KILL THE FLOW
YOU GOTTA RISE UP MOTHERFUCKER LET'S GO

DON'T WASTE YOUR FUCKING TIME, 'CAUSE I DON'T NEED YOUR FUCKING LIES
LIVE MY LIFE WITH NO REGRET, COME ALIVE, WAKE THE DEAD NOW
IN MY DARKEST DAYS IN MY FITS OF RAGE
NO REGARD FOR LIFE ALL ALONE IN A KNIFE FIGHT
AN INNER BEAST WOULD NEVER LET ME FIND PEACE
WITH MORBID VISIONS INFLICTING INCISIONS
I SWORE TO USE MY FISTS TIL I SLASHED MY WRISTS
I WELCOMED DEATH MOST NIGHTS
BUT HAD TO SETTLE MY SCORES RIGHT
ALL THAT I COULD FEEL WAS GRIEF AND PAIN
I DESIRED MY DESTRUCTION - I WAS GOING INSANE
FROM THE MISERABLE DEPTHS OF A FADED SOUL
SPILLED THE VOWS OR REDEMPTION - IN A WORLD SO COLD
BEFORE I THREW IT ALL AWAY
I'D MAKE MOTHER FUCKERS PAY
I WOULDN'T GO OUT WITHOUT ONE LAST BOUT

KEEP RUNNING AWAY - FOR MY SOUL I PRAY
REDEMPTION DECLARED - ON MY SOUL I SWEAR

WILL I EVER TRULY REST IN PEACE?
MY LIFE WAS A BATTLE THAT WOULD NEVER CEASE
AT WAR WITH MYSELF MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS
MY LIFE MY BELIEF THE PAIN NEVER ENDS
NOW ITS TOO LATE TO EVER MAKE A CHANGE
THIS NEGATIVITY HAS GOT ME FUCKING DERANGED
LIVING THIS LIFE ALWAYS FELT SO STRANGE
BUT DEATH IS FOREVER BURNING IN FLAMES

KEEP RUNNING AWAY - FOR MY SOUL I PRAY
REDEMPTION DECLARED - ON MY SOUL I SWEAR

NO LIFE WAS WASTED 'CAUSE I MADE MY PEACE
DON'T SHED NO TEARS FOR ME
MY SOUL HAS BEEN RELEASED
ENEMY TO THE WORLD MYSELF AND ALL OTHERS
THERE IS NO LIFE MY SICKNESS SMOTHERS
I FEEL SOMETIMES LIKE LIFE DID ME WRONG
SEEKING REVENGE SINCE THE DAY I WAS BORN

KEEP RUNNING AWAY - FOR MY SOUL I PRAY
REDEMPTION DECLARED - ON MY SOUL I SWEAR
FUCK THAT, THIS SHIT AINT OVER TIL WE SAY IT'S THROUGH
THIS THING OF OURS IS INSIDE US THROUGH AND TRUE
AND WE'LL NEVER SURRENDER,
THERE'S NO MORE TIME, IT'S NOT TOO LATE
ARMY OF MILLIONS GOT OUR BACK TIL THE END
FUCK ENEMIES, WE MUST RELY ON TRUE FRIENDS
BUT I REFUSE TO SAVE YOU
IF YOU WASTE YOUR LIFE ON FOOLISH HATE

NO TIME TO LET THIS WASTE AWAY - ONE LIFE,
DON'T LET IT SLIP AWAY NO TIME TO LET THIS WASTE AWAY
DON'T LET IT SLIP AWAY DON'T THROW IT ALL AWAY AGAIN

THE TIME IS NOW TO LIVE EACH DAY LIKE OUR LAST
CUZ TIME IS FLEETING AND WE MIGHT DIE REAL FAST
AND WITHOUT EACH OTHER LIFE CAN'T BE THE SAME
WE STAND TOGETHER WITH OUR BACKS AGAINST THE WALL
WE FIGHT EACH OTHER, IN THE END WE FIGHT THEM ALL
THIS IS WHAT WE STAND FOR, TOGETHER UNTIL THE VERY END

NO TIME TO LET THIS WASTE AWAY - ONE LIFE,
DON'T LET IT SLIP AWAY NO TIME TO LET THIS WASTE AWAY
DON'T LET IT SLIP AWAY DON'T THROW IT ALL AWAY AGAIN

WE'RE BROKEN, THERE’S NO HOPING, NO CURE NO REMEDY
FOR THIS ILLNESS, FOR THIS DISTRESS,
FOR THIS PAINFUL MEMORY
I THOUGHT I NEEDED YOU TO MAKE ME FEEL SO PAINFULLY
YOU KILLED ME SO SLOWLY, HURT ME MALICIOUSLY
BUT I LOVED YOU,
NOW I HATE YOU FOR EVERYTHING THAT YOU DID TO ME
AND I PRAY THAT ONE DAY SOON,
I GET BACK WHAT YOU TOOK AWAY FROM ME

LOOK INSIDE AND YOU WILL SEE, THE PAIN INSIDE AND MY MISERY
THE WAY YOU WASTED OUR PRECIOUS TIME,
IT BLOWS MY MIND AND FUCKS ME UP INSIDE
THE WAY YOU WASTED OUR PRECIOUS TIME,
IT BLOWS MY MIND AND FUCKS ME UP INSIDE

NO TIME TO LET THIS WASTE AWAY - ONE LIFE,
DON'T LET IT SLIP AWAY NO TIME TO LET THIS WASTE AWAY 
DON'T LET IT SLIP AWAY DON'T THROW IT ALL AWAY AGAIN
YOU WERE WRONG

FOR SO LONG, AN EMPTY CANVAS,
FILLED NOW WITH ALL THE PAIN INSIDE, INSIDE
AND I SWEAR I STILL REMEMBER
LOOKING THROUGH THE HOLE
INSIDE MY MIND, MY MIND

BUT YOU WERE WRONG
I DON'T CARE, NO MORE
IT'S BEEN SO LONG
I CLOSED THAT DOOR

YOU WERE THE FIRST TO BE
SO CLOSE INSIDE
OF ME AND MY DISGUISE, DISGUISE
BUT NOW I RECOGNIZE
THE TRUTH YOU SEEK
IS ALL THAT I DESPISE, DESPISE

BUT YOU WERE WRONG
I DON'T CARE, NO MORE
IT'S BEEN SO LONG
I CLOSED THAT DOOR

STABBED ME IN THE BACK
LOOKED ME IN THE EYE
LIED TO MY FACE, DISGRACE
INSIDE OF ME HAS DIED

ONCE TOGETHER NOW SEPARATE
THE LOVE AND HATE
INSIDE OF ME JUST DIES, IT DIES
SO NOW I HOLD MY HEAD UP HIGH
SOME DAY, YOU'LL FINALLY REALIZE, ALL YOUR LIES

BUT YOU WERE WRONG
I DON'T CARE, NO MORE
IT'S BEEN SO LONG
OVER THE EDGE, NOW YOU'VE PUSHED ME OVER THE EDGE

FEAR IS THE ENEMY, THE DESTROYER OF MY FATE
THE ONE THAT RIPS MY DESTINY
AND STRANGLES ME WITH HATE
I CONTROL MY FUTURE, FIGHT THE NEGATIVES
INSIDE MY HEAD I WAGE A WAR TO DIE OR TO LIVE

KILLING ME WITH MISERY
SKULLCRUSHER
SMASHING ALL YOUR HOPES AND DREAMS
SKULLCRUSHER
EMPTY PROMISES, BROKEN LIVES
SKULLCRUSHER
IN THIS WORLD EVERYTHING MUST DIE
SKULLCRUSHER
DIE

I PUSH THROUGH THE PAIN,
THE ONLY REMEDY
THERE IS NO OTHER ALTERNATIVE
THE PAIN IS KILLING ME
ACTION MUST BE TAKEN
INFLICTED MISERY
THE HARDER IT IS, THE HARDER I FIGHT
TO DIE OR TO BE FREE

BLOOD RED BLINDS MY EYES
ADRENALINE TAKES MY BREATH
MY HATE LIKE GASOLINE
REVENGE LIKE CRYSTAL DEATH
KNOCKED DOWN,
ALWAYS GET BACK UP
TAKE LIFE BY THE BALLS - AND NEVER EVER GIVE UP
THE STRONG SURVIVE,
THE WEAK WILL DIE
KING OF ALL KINGS
I'M STILL ALIVE
WHAT? NO!
YOU'RE GONNA LISTEN
WHAT? NO!
OR WE'LL GO BALLISTIC

WE'RE GONNA TEAR IT DOWN
WE'RE GONNA START RIGHT FROM THE GROUND
THERE'S NO MORE LIES
NO MORE FUCKING AROUND
NO HOLDING BACK
THERE'S NO HOLDING ME DOWN
WE'RE GONNA RIP APART THIS CONSPIRACY
DESTROY CREATE HUMANITY
'CAUSE YOU AINT EVER GONNA MAKE A SLAVE OUT OF ME
I'LL FIGHT AND DIE TO BE FREE C'MON

NEVER GIVE UP, NEVER GIVE IN, NEVER QUIT
I WON'T BE BROKEN
NEVER GIVE UP, NEVER GIVE IN, LIFE IS SHORT
I'M HERE TO WIN

LEAVE ME ALONE, DON'T WANNA HEAR YOUR LIES
DON'T UNDERSTAND OR SYMPATHIZE
CAUSE ALL THIS TIME YOU'VE PUSHED ME WAY TOO FAR
YOU'VE TAKEN EVERYTHING BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE
WHO WE ARE

IT'S TIME WE FACE THE TRUTH
WE'RE GONNA LIVE AND DIE, THERE'S NO EXCUSE
DEFEND YOUR HONOR, NO TIME TO CHOOSE
IT'S MY FIST YOUR FACE YOUR NECK MY NOOSE
I'M GONNA LIVE AND DIE WITH MY DIGNITY
TAKE CONTROL OF MY DESTINY
'CAUSE THERE'S NO ESCAPING THIS REALITY
I'LL FIGHT AND DIE TO BE FREE C'MON

ALL MY LIFE YOU PUSHED ME WAY TOO FAR
I JUST CAN'T TAKE IT, CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE

LIVE AND DIE, DIE LIVE YOUR DIGNITY
TAKE CONTROL AND CHOOSE YOUR DESTINY
