1. TRUE COLORS

Don't tell me you have bravery if you haven't felt this thing called fear. Now is the time to attack and I won't look back. I'll fight this war. To face my fears. Where is the war. In my mind my flesh and in my soul. I fight the lies they put against me and they're left exposed with their true colors in the light. Nothing you can say could take what's inside.


2. WHEN IT'S ALL SAID AND DONE

Born into this life. Where's my direction. Given the freedom to make these choices for myself. I face deception and I face temptation. I'll face theses things every single day until the time I leave this world behind. I don,t know the time I will go and it's not for me decide. The things I thought never would happen to me. I just realize that it's not in my hands. Second chances I can't exepct and I won't expect. When it's all said and done I will live. I could die toworrow so now I'll live for today. I'll try to live my live so that I'll never wish I had a second chance.


3. SO MUCH MORE

Never did I claim to be what I'm not. Never did I try to tell you that I though you should be or think or act a certain way.
Still I stood by my beliefs. I'm just trying to be real in spite of everything that I must face. That's all I can be. It's who I am. Myself. It's all I can be. So far we've come this far. And I know how we've come this far. Through thick and thin with all our differences. This is what I call commitment. No room for tragedy so I'll tell you how it is so you'll know how I see things.
I'll speak my mind and I know you'll speak yours. But will you ever have a clue how much your opinion means to me.


4. REASONS WHY

My world was crashing down and I had lost all reason. I turned from side to side looking for excuses to blame you. I questioned all this. Though out my reasons. Are you right or am I wrong. I want it all laid out. I want it all. Without a chance to expect a thing. Without a voice you said it so clear. You made a mark that took me surprise. My world in pieces and I stood beside myself when you put it all back. Put things in perspective. I finally see all of these things clear as day.


5. QUESTION OF TRUST

Redemption is something that's so hard to gain. What is friendship when the trust is lacking. Where if the line drawn. Too late it's already been crossed. Can this be taken back. Is this the bitter end. Would you throw it all away. It hurts to even say I forgive. This hate can burn what's left of you. Redemption is somthing that's so hard to gain. These wounds cut deep but to dwell on them would be so worthless and all you'd find is bitterness. Can this be taken back. These wounds cut so deep.


6. ENEMY

Go cover up you track. Another lie goes around. Another lie spewed from your mouth. You took your shot at me but I gave it all I had. In the end I'll rise above and you'll meet your destiny. This is your destiny. Everyday I face the world I feel you on my back whispering another lie to throw me off my track. I learn from my mistakes and I know that I'm forgiven. My strength comes from above.


7. SWORD FROM MY MOUTH

Sword from my mouth. A tongue of fire. Watch what you say. Make sure it counts. To quick to talk and to judge. Now your hand's held on your mouth. The walls keep getting thin and the rumor mill goes around. These words they are so strong but you don't realize how much they mean. And they're said so constantly without a thought of ever looking out of for those around you. Shallow words said without question.


8. SILENCE EXPECTED

This wasn't something new but I couldn't let it go. All the times that you had fell into this trap you call home. Silence was so necessary and it wouldn't break. So much hatred you've come to know. Always think of the past carried with you. How long will this last. Some might say that things today are better than we don't see above the surface. Silence expected. It's all we know.
Is this silence so necessary. Will it ever break. Will you accept everything that you're told and just say. Leave it alone.


9. WHO BELONGS

Tear down the walls you create when you claim to have an open mind. My message is what I believe in this lifeless world that we now live in. How could I keep this freedom I have from you. Salvation. It is yours to embrace. I heard the words you said. We don't belong. You try to shoves us out of this hardcore scene. It's yours. It's mine. We share the same stage. And I am here to stay. I can see all to clear. Another day I'll be here. Now's the time to realize we are not the enemy. I am not of you but I'm not you. I'm here for you. I'll be here beside you.


10. GUILTY

These misconceptions have proved to be wrong. Is it a mistake to go against the grain. Do you make up your mind based on what you can see. Here I stand. I'm guilty of the same crime. Judgment's not our right and not our role to decide. From just one look and you've made up you mind. Now I will take the time to step out and make amends. These misconceptions have proved me wrong.
