1. No One
The first will be the last
But I will take the chance
To see if what gives life
Is what slipped through my hands
GO!
Waiting in lines
To feed me lies
Respect for myself
No one runs this life
No one
Rock!
If you're gonna do it
Do it for yourself
If you're gonna say it
Speak it for yourself
That way when it all
comes back to day one
You're your fucking self
Move!
2. Falling Forward
Every day we're slowly dying
The end is far to near
To reverse the past
And build again on
The devastated full of fear
Falling forward to the end
Never learning from the past
Is there still time
Do you have what it takes
To change your narrow mind
Forget the past you imitate
Never learning from the past
We trudge atop the mud
Of humanity layering the lies
One layer upon the other
3. Don't Lose Sight
Addiction kills the mind
And leaves you dependent
Chemicals of ill intention
Mixed to break you,
break your vision
Don't lose sight
With confidence to fight addiction
Take a second step
Stand among as we stand as one
Live straight edge
Until the day you die straight edge
4. Slip
Now I'm watching
My friends slip away
Watching them stray
I'd give anything
To have them back
To my friends
I'll be there for you
Be there for me
I'll watch them drift away
Drift
I'll watch them slip away
Slip
5. Power Figure
Rot, break, steal, take
Life valued as less
Your life deceived and oppressed
Power figure
Power failure
Take what makes me less a man
With what makes me who I am
I swear I'd force you down
If the power was in my hands
We will force you down
6. Standing Tall
Where is your commitment
Your sense of loyalty
You broke your honor
Your credibility
Standing tall
Despite the rest
Positive
Do your best
Hardcore lives inside me
GO!
7. Sellout
So you fucking sold me out
And everything it meant
Well I'll move on
And remember everything
Today is the day
We start again
All that was lost
Is the past, another lost friend
Sellout
I'll remember every fucking thing
GO!
8. Never Too Old
Lost faith in the cause
To old and no time
To give what gave you
What no one else could find
Never turn your back on your roots
Never forget what it gave you
Breaking the chain
You're playing their game
Into the future
And onto your shame
Never too old
Never too young
For moshing it up
And singing along
9. The Enemy
Eyes decide this wrongful right
A broken chance
To save your worthless life
Your wrongful rights
Don't change a fucking thing
Brainwashed to kill and kill again
GO!
Your worthless life don't mean shit
Who's the enemy now
10. Laid to Rest
With your hands in your pockets
You stand in the back
You give no opinion
And watch their attack
Now who is to say
Now who is the right
You've lost in the end
You lost the fight
We will stand above the rest
We will stand among the best
Do what it takes
To move ahead
And leave behind
What's laid to reat
Laid to rest
11. I Will Stand
We stand against this
This fucked up substance
Face down
Kicked in
Dying slowly
With all I have inside
I will stand against
I will stand against,
This substance
I will stand
12. As We Choke
With a grip so tight
you could make it bleed
He twists, We twist humanity
And to think we did it for this
And to know we did it for this
Too plagued to be repaired
And there's nothing left but despair
What will save us now
I choke life's apathy
Too crushed to be repaired
He twists as we choke
Twist as we choke
To think we did it for this
To know we did it for this
1,2,3,4 GO!
Too crushed to be repaired
13. Get Sick
GET SICK MOTHERFUCKERS!
