Stuck in this shell Destined to dwell Cuz Living in this city Ain’t so different from a cell Pigs and yuppies running around Always wanting me to turn on this town And I try my best, to keep my distance everywhere I turn, their ways retain Born into violence Tearing us down Destroy everything Like they own this town Unable to escape What’s beyond our might But When Push came to shove We’re ready to fight Unable to ESCAPE! WE’Re READY FOR A FIGHT! What’s beyond OUR MIGHT! WE’RE READY FOR A FIGHT! Shared distress under these conditions I wont let them get the best of me And while you drowning with your thoughts, I will find my escape Born into VIOLENCE TEARING US DOWN Destroy EVERYTHING LIKE YOU OWN THIS TOWN Unable to ESCAPE! beyond OUR MIGHT! (but) When Push came to shove WE’RE READY FOR A FIGHT!

Reaching Out 01:27
Reaching out to what I hold true There’s nothing more that I could do There’s so much unused potential In a society built upon lies Try as I must, I’M REACHING OUT! into the void, WE’RE UNHEARD! Tried to be adamant persistent I tried And I was scorned Forever never yours Try as I must, I’M REACHING OUT! I'm reaching out, YOU TURNED THE BLIND EYE! Bust it! Where were you when I needed you most All you do is fucking boast You talk the talk but you can’t see I can’t believe you lied to me True to myself!
3.
Police brutality running around You’ll find out when it’s coming down From all the things you fucking do They’ll just scrutinize you they’ve made up their mind, Hiding in plain sight One of these days, they’ll lose their say Nobody rules our world, hiding in plain sight Nobody told you so, cowards feel in control Nobody wants to hear, that your brother died! Nobody told you so
4.
Loud mouth in the corner’s Talking to me Belligerent and violent Doesn’t even care His vice shouldn’t be My fucking problem Someone otta warn him Before I knock him Off his fucking chair You chose your fucking fate But I will bear this x Until the fucking grave Until the fucking end ITS A FUCKING CHOICE!
5.
I have weathered this storm before Seen the pale blue sky through the grey Your lack of hue won't fool me this time I’ve learned from the past mistakes And all I’ve ever known Is how I can never trust you Suffering with my thoughts That you try to hide in my mind Tried my best to keep you here But you didn’t reciprocate the act Your absence did nothing to affect the pained my friends, you did in this time Robbing your “friends” (for dope) Which you could have paid for. Tried my best, But you couldn’t reciprocate that act All the actions you did, were nothing but lies You’ve tried your best To change us But all you did was stab me in the back! WEATHER THE STORM!
