What’s a man to do with so much pain on his mind? When so many others in the world seem ultimately burnt totally blind Life is a general statement to the mess we live in But so much for our attitudes and patience as it just gets paper thin. When so many worry about everything and never divulge into their minds You gotta stop and take a little of what you can’t have Reflect from time to time; keep on searching for a better piece of mind A worry should be the time you have left and not dwell on what you should have said. Time tick, tick, ticks away, I wish there was something more I could say But when you don’t have anything constructive to say What is the point of life is to this day? We are all visitors to this place called earth, value your time, and value yourself Ticking time bomb set to explode, make the most, and pay the toll. So let’s drive to the other side of town Grab a slice of pizza and pass that shit around It’s the one time that we feel so close ’Cause all the other days we feel like ghosts It’s the one time and we need it most Gotta stop doubting and living like ghosts Ticking time bomb set to explode make the most and pay that toll

Does the end justify the means? But what when a bad act can’t be justified Should the greatest good be for the greatest power? But with this deep inner state in mind the world keeps turning The greatest good for the greatest power It’s so hard to see, what would make the world so right It’s so hard to see, what would make things right Lives are run by 600 that aren’t so strong But these people with no minds still get away with it all It’s a cruel misunderstanding, which collars and ties can’t see Real life on the street is so outstanding to me Each road is a checkpoint to survive No matter how far you want to run and hide from the truths But with so much negligence it will keep us reeling All you can do is just relax Try to forget the past and stay on course with the tracks But no matter how far you run and hide from the truths inside This cycle just builds up pace and veers you back to the race It takes you back It’s like a flowing lake it’s just a width to far Just keep up pace you won’t get dragged to far What the fuck this width is too damn far I’ll use my mind and I’ll be just fine

You are my brother and I will have your back No matter what may face us, no matter how hard life is Used to be as soon as their head hit the… But now she cries You were my brother in Arms Feeling so important, it’s a price that we must pay And no matter what the day or year we’ll be rising Terrifying days of yours And on that day when you let me slip away This night won’t end well But know that if you fall I will be strong for you I will be there for you

You can’t mistake it, it has control all over It makes you weak, it’s pathetic And it’s not to be trusted this is why, why I hide Slander, dread, grief, it’s all you bring You’re just human and you will be Pacified, you think you’re right but your lessons are spent Reflecting to it, once again I just don’t know and I can not see just why But every time, the nights dampen and streets retreat You think you’re right, so what the fuck am I supposed to do I stand in the gutter, it’s not to be trusted this why One day the time will come, for this hate will not go on I have to give one last try, to make some sense and make things right Smashed into a wall and I can’t concentrate, I’m starting to fall Through many lives through different stages in my life Smashed into the wall it’s amazing, how hard I’ve bitten this tongue It’s fucking crazy but all I can say is that I tried

Tell me why you do this Never wanted to step by their way of anger Always read what was in front of me But always read what is between those lines A common street was where I was born Had much hope Before it was torn I feel worn down I don’t see what you could possibly mean You’re not like me I had things bad but you’re not like me 8 o’clock or any day, it just don’t matter anyway This notepad sticker to my heart those lines still remain 8 o’clock or any day, it just don’t matter anyway Computer screens sets you on your way, let’s see how much pity you will repay 8 o’clock… It always stays that way Nothing seems to matter, your story still remains 8 o’clock… It always stays that way Nothing seems to matter, your story still remain

From The Top 03:03
You packed it in, and left your friends behind You let us down for a so called better way of life Now I don’t wanna hear about the friends you betrayed I vow to stay the same and it will stay that way Just like a thief in the night, you fell from the top Just like a thief and in time… You fell from the top No respect for you, it’s lost but if not gone Things won’t be the same; you’ll just have to accept the blame You will not know, will you ever, you will not know You will not know my restraint

No Brainer 07:26
The sun is out and you think your life is so great No longer have to work your standard life it’s so great It’s the highlight of your year, summer heat and babes are here But you’re so damn macho there is nothing left to fear Where are your ethics? I see your morals are few Wasting life because it’s that much easier to do Depreciate all that life has to offer I guess it’s your call! Can you, please stop and appreciate Just think about this shit that you pull Lives that you bust! Just think about trust, just think about us Where is the justice? Where is protection? Just many things in life that require attention Can’t sit back won’t be led to manipulate It’s hard to tell just who in the world is who Pressure is building we’re all losing control So many scream but to no avail My mind screams sanctions just keep building It’s like the foot hills it’s so far away A quest for knowledge the demon you should go and slay Fickle minds go and teach themselves For depicting fields are awesome and the rewards do pay
