1. Resist

"Free people will never remain free if they are not willing, if
need be, to fight for their vital interests."

I watch your bullshit from the outside in, you disrespect and hate
You think you're better than your fellow man,
Controlled by fear you seal your fate
How could you step on me, violate, desecrate and hate me
But I'm just like you, flesh and blood, I'm only human.

I resist the pressure to be who you want me to be
I resist the pressure, I resist so I am free.

I see right through your condescending ways, as you look down on me
But I could never stand and judge like you, I resist so I am free.
My peace of mind, peace of mind will set me free
But I'm just like you, flesh and blood, in need of revolution.
I resist so I am free.






2. Switchback

Welcome to the rat race, people killing themselves
To get ahead of the pack, backstab and attack.
Out for self, the money, the power, the fame,
Competition and greed in a world without shame.
I stumble and fall along the path I've chosen,
I face my fears, I won't be broken.
Corrosion has a way of fucking with your sanity,
I do what I gotta to preserve my humanity.

Switchback - taking life as each day comes
Switchback - facing fears, I never run,
Switchback - never quit until I'm done
I'm the underdong and I will overcome.

Confrontation can break you down to your very fast compound.
Beat you down, drag you round, break you
Refuse to bend, never ever let it take you
Over the edge where you can never break through.
Overcome, switchback, stand strong alone
The good, the bad, the truth, the unknown
Locked up at war with the demons within
I fight to live, I live to win.

The harder that I battle with lifes deceit,
The stronger I stand on my own two feet.
If I allow the world to assimilate my mind,
Will my freedom be forever denied?
Will I no longer be free in my mind?






3. Salvation

Someday I hope to rise above material chains which hold me down
To turn my anger into love and keep my feet planted on the ground.
To undo stigmas societies branded, misconceptions about being a man.
To be grateful, take nothing for granted, to live the truth as best I can.

I seek the truth whatever that may be,
I seek the answers to questions, please God help me.

To look at people and see no color, vision clear of prejudice or spite,
To treat people just like my brother, for this I pray with all my might.
To learn to let go of all my fears and learn to embrace all of my tears,
To search for faith and humility, to walk the path which sets me free.

Salvation, from society, damnation, have mercy on me.

So many lies I told, so many lives I've sold.
So far away from who I am I never understand.
So many things I regret, so many things that I let
Take me away from myself, too late to take it back.

So many dreams I had, so many lives I've lived
So many friends I said goodbye forever
So amny times I wish, so many times I dream,
Do it again, I swear I'd never.

In my quest to uncover the truth the deepest wounds get left behind
As I seek serenity from the war, from the war inside my mind.






4. End Of My Rope

Where to run to, where to hide, much to full to swalllow my pride
But I'm still haunted by something inside as if another part of me
has died.

Paralyzed, I close my eyes, the pain inside surrounds me.
Petrified, life fades away, at the end of my rope I'm waiting.

Sometimes I feel like I'm all alone, empty inside, out of control.
My heart a void, my empty soul, until it's filled I'll never be whole.
How did things ever get so bad, sinking empty, full of despair
I find myself alone and scared, in a world where nobody cares.

A hopeless end, afraid deep inside
Relief from my pain, the end a suicide?
The tears I've cried have left me blind
I yearb to find peace, a presence of mind.






5. All For None

I said I'd stand with you forever if you needed me
Help, arm in arm, hand over fist and carry you where necessary
like a fool I thought we'd walk tall forever all as one
When the going got tough you stopped pushing and turned to run.

I tried so hard, so sad to watch you drown.

You turned and pointed fingers at the truest friend you ever had,
And I prayed to God you'd find relief from the things that you made your
life sad.
We were down forever, together forever all as one,
But when the time came to step up and do it right, I saw you turn and run
I tried so hard, to help you hold it down
You never helped yourself, so sad to watch you drown.
I tried so hard, to help you save your life
You never helped yourself, shut the door and say good-bye.

You and me, eye to eye, hands tied together, live or die
Walk tall forever, all as one, never again, you turned to run.

All for None






6. Breakdown

Unjustified, persecution of my free mind.
I'm horrified, the cruel nature of you and your kind
Crucified for just trying to be myself.
Suicide, I'd rather die than live in your hell.

I will not break, I will not bend,
I will not go quietly, I will never bow down to them.

I close my eyes, I can see more clearly,
You criticize the things I hold dearly
You victimize because you fear me
It's your demise, you should have let me be.

You won't break me down.

The harder I swim against the tide the more it pulls me down
Feel the pressure on my life, as I struggle and fight not to drown.
Why do you, why do you try to break me, you'll never break me down.
I'll never let you break me, you'll never break me down.

The more I try to live my life the harder you are on me
There is no wrong there is no right, what will it take for you to see?






7. Inner Fear On

See the future, hate being unsure
Feel insecure, life without a cure
Invade my body like it was your own
A losing battle when challenged alone.

I'm sick and tired of losing someone I love and admire
I'm fucking tired of losing someone like you.

How can you feel it unless it happens to you?
Watching someone suffer there's nothing you can do.
Sit and wait with love and hate, emotions, they destroy,
I question my faith, how can a God, how can a God take?

How can I worship a God who takes life away
And leaves nothing but pain that never goes away.
I lie in bed each night, struggle to fall asleep,
Memories in my head, i pray my soul to keep.
Tried and true, I get up everyday and say,
Life's too short, no time to look the other way.
Gotta face what's inside, I gotta do away
With all the feelings behind my frozen heart, I pray.






8. Abandon In Place

I will never forget what it is that you did to me,
And I will never understand why
You insist upon inflicting pain and agony on me, forever everlasting.

There's no way out, I'll never break free
I will never forgive and forget how you abandoned me.

All my fucking life I've keep my head held high,
Respected myself through thick or thin,
Never asked anybody for anything.
I just want to live with peace and dignity
but you insist on trying to bring me down.

Where were you when I needed you,
You were never around.
I put my faith in you and you let me down.






9. Skin

Out of sight and out of mind, when you look at yourself do you find
Everything you want to be or do you see what I see.
Too late to change your life, step outside and say good-bye
To everything you left behind, what you seek you may not find.

As I shed my skin, I leave you behind
As I shed my skin, I go on to a better life.

Indecision fills my head, all the things I left unsaid,
My heart is letting go, my pain you'll never know.
If you love something set it free, what I love you took from me.
Try to look, but you can't see, try to put the past behind me.

How could you think it lasts forever, I sit and watch as you decline
Can't you see it's gone forever, out of sight and out of mind.

Twisted, broken, I sit and watch as you decline
Help me, help yourself, out of sight and out of mind.

I see you now in a different plane; broken, used up, pathetic, in pain,
You scream and fight, deny the shame, your selfish heart is the one to blame.
So much time has filled the space since we've been standing face to face.
Wasted breath I've tried to explain, still I see not a thing has changed.






10. Camouflage

Camouflage you close your eyes, hiding in plain sight
Wrapped tightly in blankets of lies, live whatever life you synthesize
Disguise the truth about yourself, bury it six feet deep,
Bring to life your deceit and stealth, lock the door and throw away the key.

Hide behind your lies, I seek through your disguise
It leads to your demise, I see it in your eyes.

Disarray your life slips into, falling apart at the seams,
You can't understand what's going on, who you once were is forever gone.
On and on the tangled web you weave, running from your past
You listen to whatever you want to believe
Too late karma comes around to you so fast.

All you do is lie, cheit deceive
Everyone you hate, need, believe
All you do is lie.

Flippin around the truth, you're slipping;
Tighten the noose around your neck is ripping,
Anything you wish, take a pen and script in
Manufacture the truth all you do is lie...






11. Decline

It's easy to say we scream for change when everyday we act the same.
How can a troubled government make us scapegoats
When we don't go out and vote.
We're spewing, spouting, condemnation

That the world we live in is a racist nation
Since our opinions contradict our statements,
We show our prejudiced affliliations.

Decline of civilization
A crime against humanity,
In all our lies and our self pity
It's time to stop our apathy.

You say you're a victim in pain
But you always prey on someone to blame.
You want to end the suffering for the hungry and the poor
When they ask for help you slam the door.
You want housing for the public good
But not in your own neighbourhood.
Industrial pollution makes you sick,
But you ain't got time for politics.

You want the world to be a better place
For your children, your people, your friends or race,
But selfish reasons drive us all, it's all for none and none for all.
The truth means nothing in a world full of lies,
Hypocrisy is man's demise.






12. Cycle Of Abuse

Treated unfairly, you resent everybody that has so much
Of the things in life that were taken away from you.
So wrapped up in your misery, you never feel the love that surrounds you,
So wrapped up in your misery, you never notice that life passed you by.

You've waited all your life for the pain to go away
Lock yourself inside a world that makes you hate.

Left it all alone, ignored by the one you need attention from
For the things in life you never achieved on your own.
He can't be bothered to care for you, to hold and respect and be there for you,
He can't be a real father to you, some day he'll regret all time that went by.

You've waited all your life for the pain to go away
And I've always hated to see you hurt inside.
So much I try to help but you push me away,
Lock yourself inside a world that makes you hate
Locked inside a world of hate.

Beaten down for as long as you remember
Your life was analyzed, criticized and dismembered
Your hopes and dreams were discouraged and severed
the pain you've endured, the suffering you've weathered
You find it so hard to pull yourself together
To face the world to your fears you surrender,
You dream of a day you'll overcome and sever,
The cycle of abuse and the pain you've carried forever.

You're not alone, there's so many others that care for you,
So many things in our lives you helped us all get through
It means so much to me that you're here to share in my life
And calm my tears, it means so much to me that you're alive,
As you hold my child and wipe the tears from your eyes.






13. Dogs Of War

Apocalypse fills my head, fire and smoke turns the sky blood red,
Thermonuclear warhead, chemical warfare, disease widespread.
People kneel to the might of a figure head, mother earth lies silent on
her death bed
Into the fire the blind are led, five billion people will soon be dead.

War is no solution to the conflicts that we face
The end of our evolution, revolution, resist the hand of fate.

Armageddon, the end draws near, reality becomes our biggest fear
The future once seemed so free and clear, darkest hour, life disappears.
Punishment for greed and lust, mass genocide, holocaust
Foretold predictions of the end upon us, ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

We wage a ware which can't be won,
Apocalyptic suicide, what have we done?

Fire, one day a great fire shall come
Rain, a cleansing rain will wash away the scum
War, blood thirsty savages we've become
Revelation, judgment night and now we're done.

I pride myself on my sill to survive, i will fight to stay alive
We've got the power, destroy or create,
Terminate ourselves with our love for hate.
Every night I kneel down and pray,
There's nothing I can do to make it go away.
We march for peace and scream for change
But the dogs of war will forever remain.
