Wasting time on denied intentions, Searching for those second chances
That always escape and run from me, We search for someone to believe
I try so hard to bend to you, pushing forward but never pushing thru
The weight becomes too much for me, in the end it's becoming too clear to see
That it seems we're living out our dreams, we keep getting pushed back to the in between
Not Gaining Acceptance from You!
It's hard to understand how our fates controlled by someone else
It gets so complicating we hope tomorrow can bring redemption
Looking for your just deserve? You'll get fucked without a word
And now we can see there's nothing different, from those in power and those we live with
An ego trip that's so sad to see, we're who they want to be
Although it seems we're living out our dreams, we keep getting pushed back to the in between
Not Gaining Acceptance from You!
It's hard to understand how our fates controlled by someone else

Kill and Kill Again and Again
Your blind eyes make it hurt too much
It's so sad you can't see what's inside of me
So I wander feeling out of touch
I can't separate my mind from my soul
I'm Not!
Breed disease and dishonesty in this generation
Sometimes I feel like I am fighting all alone
I understand that the master plan will lead you to believe
Shield your eyes from the thousands of lies that make you feel cold and empty inside
I'm Not Lost!
Educate before another tragic day there's a child born believing there's not another choice
We're understanding that they're spreading propaganda just to shield you from the horrors behind closed doors
NO we won't wonder
NO we won't settle
We're not accepting what you believe
I'm taking and I'm breaking down the walls that are forever shielding me
Cause I'm not lost, I've found my way
We Learn Through Life to Kill
We Learn! Handed down from our generations past
Through Life! Shield your eyes from the compassion that you lack
To Kill! Everything that you have within your grasp

There's something wrong in the shadows of the USA
Immoral minds telling lies buying votes today
Won't make a difference which side that you will choose
Cause in American politics the people will always...
Lose your faith in what we stand for
What The Fuck did our ancestors fight for
Salute the flag while you disgrace our country, American politics are not what it was supposed to be
They set the rules that are followed by me and you
Empathize sympathize is more than they can do
There's something wrong in this united nation
We have to fight for what is right and we can not..
Lose your faith in what we stand for
What The Fuck did our ancestors fight for
Salute the flag while you disgrace our country, American politics are not what it was supposed to be
Take A Stand together fight for the right to believe in what you choose
Take A Stand together fight for the people that perceive they will always lose
Take A Stand together fight for the right to believe in what you choose
Take A Stand
Cause what you stand to lose, is your slice of freedom, we're left to wonder
Everyone decide, when will this country, take control of our freedom
We'll make a difference today...

Take another look and grin as you walk past another day
The landscape's always changing, littering the streets but some may say that
You will walk in the world around me No Cares about the ending
Safe inside you hear the crying closed to the world that's always dying here
What went wrong?
In our lives we deal with deaths corporation, they're out on the streets with no relation
I contend that anyone of them could soon be you
No Cares about the subject innocence is lost with every last breath
Think about the times you turned your head and simply walked away
What went wrong?
We throw away their lives and rape their souls of dignity but understand their fate is not so far from you or me
The World will take much more than you can give their sad eyes you see believe society has nothing left
No we're not so hopeless
So what's in store for us
Take a look around at deaths corporation they're dying in the streets with no retaliation
What you see is not so kind but history tells how we leave the weak behind
Veterans of war who have fought for their country fall victim to the lie that true happiness is freedom
Please tell me what your thinking
Please tell me what's gone wrong

Not Me

Take up a seat and sit beside the one that I'm holding so dear to me
I'm told to step aside, like the others complacently
I walk right through a thousand trials, to catch a glimpse of what's become
Now somethings changed and I'm not the only one
I Hope You'll know
I'll be standing in the way for progress
I Hope You'll know
No time left for me
You consider me but I can never be the one who will belong, You consider me but I can never be the one who would belong
Today I count the times that I've gone astray but I have to keep a part of the times I've failed to start
I know the answers lie deep within is all, will we start to live or begin to fall
Hope that you know I'll be left standing fighting against all that threatens my life
Hope that you know there's no pretending can't help the feelings that I have inside
You consider me but I can never be the one who will belong, You consider me but I can never be the one who would belong
Face the lies that try to tell you what you do is wrong!

Run, run away from what's building up inside
Run, crying out for way to deflect my mindless creation of a better life it's intoxication freedom reserved for me
Waiting exploding revolting I tear at what's left, I'm still broken
Finding out what it's like on the other side, what is there to see
Reaction leads to instant elation for what's the price I have to pay
One more time I'm running away from
One more time I'm begging to be released away return within
Reaction leads to instant elation for what's the price I have to pay
I pray to live, another day without regretting, unconsciousness, I'm lost inside myself alone
I watch it just slipping away
Turn back the time, Run!
It was a cry for help
Turn back the time, Run!
I was....

It's time to decide
To chance tomorrow and make a difference
All lies down tight she pulls her sleeves just to hide the truth
can't wait, today is the day that we break the silence
What more can we do, to make this pain, gone..
No More, How long, can this be
Break through this cycle of violence, all too often is just ends up the same
The first time leaves weakness inside her and reaching out will only lead to blame
How long, is too long, we should never let this happen again
I see the bruises raising on her skin, reminders of the pain within
A wife, a mother, child reminders of what they've seen in the past
They've grown up with the violence, a life dies and turns to ash
Your son, your husband, father leaned from the earliest life
To gain response through action, respect through fear, Lies!
Break the silence, it ends today
We can never let this happen again
So how long is too long, breath life from the hell within
The first time always promises the lies, forced down to submission they concede
Preparing for the next time and praying for the promises once believed
Break the silence
Lead them back to the hope within

Look for the signs that things are not the same
We keep doubting global cries that get in the way
We blame the past forgetting lessons we should learn
and now today, We're all the same
Hate leads the way just like it did before
While the innocent all die in power hungry war
I don't expect the truth would set us free
Resist becoming what you see
Control your own destiny
Their lies distorting what's the truth
We see... Right through you!
So clear the signs that we are on our way
We keep keep closing up our minds until we are still the same
War in the streets and pollution in the air
But do we care? We're all the same
Look towards the past and the choices that were made
As we analyze our lives nothings ever changed
Destroy ourselves and maybe we'll be free
Resist becoming what you see
Control your own destiny
Their lies distorting what's the truth
We see... Right through you!
