Lyrics

1. HOME

Capitalism pigs deprive us of our freedom
Trapped in a cage, we lost ourselves
Still as we fight to preserve what we hold dear
We know no fear

Limitless imagination yet we don’t know
How to set ourselves free
We struggle to escape our own prison
And finish what we've started

Remember your roots where we all started
This place in our heart we've once departed

Remember your roots with home in our heart
Life won’t be hopeless

Wrapped up in insecurities, torn from our past
We forgot our priorities, we lost our trail
Forgot our priorities

Remember your roots where we all started
This place in our heart we've once departed

Remember your roots with home in our heart
Life won’t be hopeless

Recall your home, you know what this stands for
Recall your home, you know what this stands for

Remember your home where your story began
Remember your home where you anchored your heart


2. MEMORIES

I can't shake off this feeling there's so much more to say
I lost a part of me

Closed doors inside my head
Locked up key thrown away
Hidden paths behind stone walls
End of road, no sign ahead

Every wrong move could be my last
Weight tied around my neck, it's tearing down my head

I keep searching for my memories
I'm running blind
[I'm running blind]
I hear this voice inside my head
There seems no end in sight
[No end in sight]
My legs are tired, I won’t give in
I got nothing to lose
[Nothing to lose]
I won't crawl back
Life on a short fuse

Dragged in an endless abyss we got lost in the dark
Searching for those memories that left us torn apart
Running blind
I’m running blind

I keep searching for my memories
I'm running blind
[I'm running blind]
I hear this voice inside my head
There seems no end in sight
[No end in sight]
My legs are tired, I won’t give in
I got nothing to lose
[Nothing to lose]
I won't crawl back
Life on a short fuse

Empty glass, clouded mind
No sense of direction
Broken bridge, I lost my track
Hell can I make it back

Empty glass, clouded mind
No sense of direction
Broken bridge, I lost my track
Hell can I make it back


3. WORLD

We are the youth that's been cursed born into a rotten world
Standing on the edge of nothing
Left with a broken compass
We were raised to believe the end is near

That all is lost, we can't escape
We have no chance to choose our future

We are the youth that's been cursed born into a rotten world
Standing on the edge of nothing
Left with a broken compass
There is not much left to choose

I start to ask myself, what will we leave behind
For generations to come, what's left of all our pride

We are the youth that's been cursed born into a rotten world
Standing on the edge of nothing
Left with a broken compass
There is not much left to choose

Burnt down
Intoxicated
Contaminated
Planet earth

Extinct races
Trapped in cages
Wiped out tribes
Greed homicide

I start to ask myself, what will we leave behind
For generations to come, what's left of all our pride

Cause we are the youth that's been cursed born into a rotten world
Standing on the edge of nothing
Left with a broken compass
There is not much left to choose

Is there anymore we have to sacrifice
Just to realize there's almost nothing left

Is there anymore we have to sacrifice
Just to realize there's almost nothing left


4. RESPECT

I have enough of all that bullshit, these people telling me shit
Day after day won't stop making promises they cannot keep

You're not a man try ask me why, telling me lies and wasting my time
You're a disgrace without any pride
Fake fucks like you we hang in our town

This is my brotherhood we're never going down
Say what you say no one gives a fuck
Can’t hit us with this shit you got so give it up
Give it up give it up give it up

This is my brotherhood we're never going down
We dive into the fog all colours fading out
Keep going on with broken dreams bound to our back
We carrion

You speak this words with no meaning trying to shut us down
But what is the meaning of breathing if you are not truly alive

You’ll get no honour, you'll get no respect
Only hate is what you get

No matter how tough our path may seem we won’t go astray
Still going on with broken dreams bound to our back

This is my brotherhood we're never going down
Say what you say no one gives a fuck
Can’t hit us with this shit you got so give it up
Give it up give it up give it up

This is my brotherhood we're never going down
We dive into the fog all colours fading out
Keep going on with broken dreams bound to our back
We carrion

No honour, no respect
Only hate is what you get
We’ll carrion

No honour, no respect
Only hate is what you get
No honour, no respect
Only hate is what you get

No honour, no respect
Only hate is what you get
No honour, no respect
Only hate is what you get


5. DESPAIR

Every breath could be the last
Leaning back against the wall

He could need another jacket the breeze is piercing through
Blowing in his hands is not gonna stop the chill
With holes in his shoes and holes in his jeans
All he wants is to last another night
Last another night

Every breath takes you closer to death
When you're all alone in the streets of loneliness

Constantly falling to the bottom of your despair
With no one there to care

One step closer to death

Every breath takes you closer to death
When you're all alone in the streets of loneliness

Laying your head down the freezing ground
Empty stomach left, sinister sideway
No turning back

Constantly falling to the bottom of your despair
Constantly

Will this ever take a turn or will we be standing and watch all burn


6. SUNKEN

Left without any decency you misled friends and foes
Sympathy as an excuse
Pretended grief, expiring fraud
Your broken morals and wasted virtues
What's left to flaunt yourself

You have to remember your roots
This place in your heart you've long departed
Remember your home
Remember where you anchored your heart

Bad blood spread through your veins
But I won't neither forgive nor forget your face

Your rancour hidden by a mask despair consumes your soul
Corruption is your only friend and greed will kill you in the end

We're all born into this world, like a seed sown in a gardens bed
Taking root and growing fast, sometimes we spread far away
Every plant knows its beginning where it anchored itself down
But if you uproot this anchor the plant will eventually die out

You have to remember your roots
This place in your heart you've long departed
Remember your home
Remember where you anchored your heart
[Remember where you anchored your heart]

Left without any decency you misled friends and foes
Sympathy as an excuse
Pretended grief, expiring fraud
Your broken morals and wasted virtues
What's left to flaunt yourself

You've wasted your whole life
Nothing can cover up this lies
Nothing can cover up this lies

You have to remember your roots
This place in your heart you've long departed
Remember your home
Remember where you anchored your heart

You have to remember your roots
This place in your heart you've long departed
Remember your home
Remember where you anchored your heart
[Remember where you anchored your heart]
