Staying Power
I'm gonna do what I can.
To live life for me.
Never tried to Pose, never tried to please.
I knew whats inside. Never Bought the hype.
I'm an honest man with an open mind.
And although I failed. No I don't regret.
Never let the past define self respect.
Staying power not going away.
Never wore a mask we mean what we say.
My life my wounds. Its a road into myself.
We will never die we will only multiply.
All those years we sacrificed.
When our dream was crushed we reached for the light.
You can pitch your pitch but I'm not the same.
Take that fake ass shit and get the fuck away.
Staying power, your life is escape.
We open up our will, we confront our fate.
Staying power, not going away, never wore a mask we mean what we say.
My life my wounds. Its a road into myself.
We will never die we will only multiply.
Watching and weighing the shot.
You hit the floor, giving slack. Untying the knot
We're taking our shot.
Watching and weighing the shot.
You hit the floor, giving slack. Untying the knot.
My effigy for the cheated.
You lawyer, you mascot.
Genetic loophole.
Preying for the praise
that we fought to earn.
Fueled by fear,
Blood Coersion.
Dying in disease and then,
Ruptured clear.
All gave some, Some gave all.
Stand your ground, heed the call.
Socially just, you're a lie.
Hedonist, you'll know my eyes.
No more pain, we can't relate.
We awake to a nightmare of life.
In a world, cold and sick.
We made a pact, stay in the light.
