Moving Forward

We’ll keep moving forward
We’re leaving you behind
You don’t give a fuck anymore
So stop wasting our time
We never fucking asked
About what you thought
Your opinion is something
We never fucking sought
I don’t hate you
I just don’t care what you have to say
Every time you open your mouth
It’s the same fucking thing:
How it is, how it should, and how it used to be
Just shut your mouth or I’ll do it for ya
And I won’t feel a thing
Do you have something to add?
Just save your fucking breath
Your time is up I’ve had enough
Just give it a rest
At least we fucking try
What do you have to show?
Constantly compare our efforts
To 20 years ago

Take Control

Every fucking day this thing eats at me
Everything I do or start I can’t complete
It gets so god damn hard to do anything
It’s like before I even try I feel defeat
If there is something I can do I’ll fucking try
Can’t let my laziness be justified
Time to take my circumstance into my own hands
I know it’s hard but I gotta do what I can
Gotta take control of myself
And put myself on track
Can’t let this thing in my h ead
Continue to hold me back
The barriers that I try to break
The obstacles that stand in my way
It feels like they break only me
But it’s so hard when I can’t fucking think

Closing every door i try to open
I can’t let you get away with that
Others try to be something so great
Your first instinct is to attack
No one can succeed
When your only thought is “me”
How can you not see that?
Pretending you’re not to blame
Dodging all the things
You’ve done to make yourself feel right
Unwilling to change
Your harmful selfish ways
You refuse to see with a clear sight
I’m glad you walked away
You saved me the pain
Of making the choice myself
Now it’s time to make things right
I see your end in sight
I won’t let you control someone else
Refusing to change
You bend and you break
Anyone who won’t agree
Perceptions have changed
People derail from who they said they’d
Be
This time it’s war
Cut too close to home
Where the fuck is your guilt?
Time to settle the score
Won’t take anymore
Can’t destroy all I’ve built

Whatever It Takes

I watched you fall
I watched you fail
I saw you act out of fear
And against your will
I saw you run
And act so scared
I saw you choose that fucking shit
After all these years
Convictions I’ll always carry
Till I’m dead in my fucking grave
Staying true to myself
While everyone else changed
Don’t give me your stories
Just fucking go
This shit means more to me
Than you’ll ever know
Just passing through I knew you were
The next to break
I remain in clarity
Whatever it takes
Stand Alone
Straight Edge
Whatever It Takes
Stand Alone, Whatever it takes
Convictions I’ll carry
Til I’m dead in my grave
Stand Alone, Whatever It Takes
Staying true to myself
While everyone else changed

You Never Were

YOU NEVER WERE
YOU FOLLOW THE CROWD
DON'T THINK FOR YOURSELF
BELIEVED ONE THING
THEN DID SOMETHING ELSE
YOU HAVE NO TRUE CONVICTIONS
YOU DULL ALL YOUR THOUGHTS
ACTED AS ONE THING
NOW I KNOW YOU'RE NOT
NO GRIP ON LIFE
YOUR VISION IS BLURRED
DON'T CALL YOURSELF TRUE
CAUSE I KNOW YOU NEVER WERE
I THOUGHT YOU HAD SENSE
ONE THING YOU NOW LACK
YOU ACT WITHOUT THINKING
AND I CAN'T HAVE YOUR BACK
