Forgotten times and forgotten names Of the ones that carved the way The memory deceives the mind into thinking of the fame Let down after let down the support will fade away The structure of success isn't built by one There’s a collective rising that’s just begun Don’t take the risk in letting them turn their back onto this day It’s a day when you need them the most When your life has washed away You've built this up To be more than it’s fucking worth Your big name status means shit to us The end of you is nigh So when will you fall from your horse When you do I’ll be there And I hope you fall fucking hard So take away what you've been given And compare it to what you have earned When the gifts have gone what have you got Let’s see what you’re really worth You will lose your loved ones But I’ll stand strong, yes I’ll stand strong You will lose your loved ones But I’ll fight on, yes I’ll fight on You will lose your loved ones But I’ll stand strong, I will stand strong You will lose your loved ones But I’ll fight on, I will fight on Don’t you think it’s time? To thank the ones who made your life There you go again You lost control, in the eyes of them you’re worth no more Remember when, remember when the spotlight shined down on you You’re fucked You used to spit words that bragged of tales that were not true The end of you is nigh So reach out to those who still stand by you You lost the right to run this show Elitism will get you nowhere Forgotten times and forgotten names Of the ones that carved the way The memory deceives the mind into thinking of the fame Let down after let down the support will fade away You've built this up To be more then it’s fucking worth Your big name status means shit to us The end of you is nigh Face up to the truth You will cower at the thought of being forgotten

So if we won’t Live forever Why are we waiting On someone else You sent us down the path To our graves end Where every let down is another Engraving on your tombstone Cold winds enter into another empty room Where the flame in you is put out You've burnt the candle You've burnt the candle at both ends The worst reputation that you've been given Is the one that you've given yourself Your only weakness is you So which one of us will die first Cause I'm sure, yes I'm sure I’ll be the one left dancing on your grave We are hungry but we cannot eat We are tired but we cannot sleep The stress you've caused Is taking over And we can no longer think For years we've had no money, no home But a family to call our own We know that life has got to be hard Otherwise we have not been tested We won’t ever take the easy way out We won’t ever take the easy way out We know that life has got to be hard We don’t understand the point of your existence If your life consists of false promises So we can go knuckle to knuckle To turn dust into dust The hinges of us Are beginning to rust The price you pay is written by your own hand The poison in you Destroys everything that’s been built The poison in you Destroys everything So sit down and read between the lines Sit down and read between And read between the lines You've sent us to our graves end

The Promise 05:28
This is the broken town where treachery is lived and breathed It’s nothing more than meets the eyes that surface from the deep Within this town there lives a child who’s sad and cowardly He resents the thoughts of wanting more or even prevailing Now is the time to rise and mean something In a world that’s of the charts The scribes are at his feet He never wanted to be part of what’s laid out for him It’s not his fault, it’s not his fault This is the way the world works Challenging his every move It needs no rest it needs no sleep It splits the wicked from the pure He was given a promise from a promised land There’s something there for him for everyone His actions his actions Will repent the sins of your king Now is the time to reach for the stars Now is the to reach upon the stars and make his mark This is his life Don’t take it away from him It’s not your choice He promised to be something He never wanted to be part of what’s laid out for him It’s not his fault, it’s not his fault This is the way the world works Challenging his every move It needs no rest it needs no sleep It splits the wicked from the pure Go far and claim your freedom This war is won you've done it Now watch as the masses bow down This war is won you've done it

Dread 04:32
Somebody’s screaming murder in the night sky Somebody’s screaming die No one’s around to witness the havoc that ensued this night Because of this moment someone’s lost a loved one Their endless tears seek truth The answers are kept within the guilty conscience Of a wayward soul This will take all your thoughts To find out what is real This will take all your thoughts To find out what escapes you The facts will validate your fears Life has not stopped without them So send out the search lights And put your faith in them They will light up your way The passage will be clearer Don’t you think there may be more than meets the eye Look deep into the pupils of those who survived They will be held in contempt cast out by the rest Lost souls they wonder with no hope only regret They will be held in contempt for life Somebody’s screaming murder in the night sky Somebody’s screaming die No one’s around to witness the havoc that ensued this night Because of this moment someone’s lost a loved one Their endless tears seek truth The answers are kept within the guilty conscience Of a wayward soul This will take all your thoughts To find out what is real This will take all your thoughts To find out what escapes you The facts will validate your fears Life has not stopped without them Close your eyes Cover your ears Shut your mouth It starts now Don’t you think there may be more than meets the eye Look deep into the pupils of those who survived They survived So what will you believe?

I'm staring into a vacant reflection I cannot help but think about What has not yet been achieved There’s always more to come Cause when times are hard You find out who your friends are They’re the ones who keep by your side Even when you have to go it alone Don’t know what I want Don’t know how I feel My misery has been concealed Time after time I'm tied between being And being someone Will there ever be a name for myself Or a legacy live left alone I have wanted something so much In my whole life But the work is taking its toll It’s always seeming way too much Now does my heart still beat at all? It feels just like the pulse has gone This isn't what I thought it would be It’s hard and the strain might be killing me I'm gunna hold on And never let go These dreams of mine are stories yet told I don’t remember where I'm from I don’t know who the fuck I am This is my hunting ground And I will slay my demons down This is a dream that I have When awake and asleep I have never really spoken to anyone No one ever knows the truth I’ll take my coat cause if the heavens open I don’t wanna be anywhere close to hell Sat watching the world come alive Day by day my memories collide I'm the skater kid that could not skate The city urbanite that lives in the suburbs The high roller with no money And the fighting type with no muscle I think I have lost my mind This foe of mine is the tired me That is trapped inside the thoughts that Cast shadows on bright light days At some point my life will fade away I said time will tell But the clocks ran out One day I hope to see myself In another light When skies thicken black Will we ever again shine bright I don’t know where I'm from I don’t know who the fuck I am This is my hunting ground And I will slay my demons down I'm gunna hold on and never let go These dreams of mine are stories yet told Does my heart beat alone? It seems as though the pulse has gone This will always mean more to me
