A tight clenched fist and gritted teeth, you will hear these words that I speak. Not one of them will be a lie, I swear to tell the truth while staring straight in your eyes. I was broken once before, but never again will I pick myself off the floor. Chasing after dreams I cannot reach, lay you down to rest, sleep, bitch. I've never been afraid of my own reflection, but I'm scared of the man that I see staring back at me. The end of life I've never known, I've never known nothing but to be cold. the end of life I never planned, and a lifeless man I cannot stand.

I swear I will make it through this and I'm ready for coming out heartless, pushed too far with nowhere left to go, given no escape and left with no hope. Recollection of a stronger man, beat down by the world he lived in. An abusive past and an unsettling nature. Backed against a wall with nowhere left to fall. Stronger than ever. Heartless forever. Stand alone on my own two feet no shoulder to lean on. Grown stronger through grasping at frail ends, fighting through life with theses heavy heavy hands. The choices you make reflect you as a man, never let the bastards keep you down and I said I'm sorry my friend; I wont let you down, ever again.

Over and over and over again, hear the same old stories told. The stories you swore were made up tales, they're not worth their weight in fools gold, go. No faith in myself and a reliance on wealth, a fate that is far much worse than death. You are not my elder just because you are older, you're just an ignorant older mother fucker. A message for the presidents and prime ministers alike: believing the words you feed is like swallowing the knife. We the people need to push forward, we need something to work towards. A disenfranchised youth and a beat down generation struggling to survive in the world we live in. Grasping tightly to what little we own, prying it from our fingers your only goal. I knwo you won't hear this, but it's a plea from people like me. For you to recognise our worth because that rut I hit it only got worse. Just because you're living better than me that doesn't mean that I'm not free. Look into my eyes and you'll see it makes sense, a person's worth isn't measured in pounds and pence. Now my eyes are open and seeing through all the empty promises and propaganda tools. We didn't make it through hundreds of years and untold generations to be governed by your bullshit segregation, I don't know you and you are nameless; the friend of my enemy will feel my hatred.

Always remember and never forget forgiveness is the beginning of weakness. Too stubborn to quit and too strong to fold, going all in blind I'll show my hand to the world. Never give up and never surrender, you'll never walk alone. You'll never get it I know... A lack of control and no choice of my own. Emotionless impact I had on the final verdict. A measure of truth and a degree of justice, lies upon lies built up with no foundation. There is no judge and there is no judy, I'll be your execution and when the verdict strikes I'll bring the hammer down; swift and righteous. No remorse for the weak, your time is running out. I can see through your lies and I'm bringing your world down.

Stone Cold 02:34
Stone cold my heart is frozen, bound in place by the bones I've broken. A message unspoken and an overwhelming urge to leave this earth without you. The ones I died for given my soul for, living in a cliche and yet you want more, more of me that I cannot give, grasping at life with broken figure tips. And I watched it slip through my grasp, tried to catch it but it fell too fast and I got to laugh; picking up the pieces of my twisted past. Realistic outlook, negative mentality. I am stone cold, forever faithful. Trapped beneath this hanging rope and I refuse to give up hope. I feel a lump in my throat, as the noose tightens I begin to choke. Questioning everything you ever said as I realise this is the end. Never doubted this before and my faith never faltered. I believe I believe in what I see and I won't die for an entity. I won't live by what you read. Practice what I preach and I will die fucking free.

Fight of flight it's nothing but instinct, in a situation you can never win. Actions speak louder or so I've heard, keep running your mouth, who you think you're foolin'? Soon enough your contribution will end, dying on your knees with out stretched hands. Fuelled by passion and emotionally driven this is a message about your conviction. A violent mentality, a no hope reality and don't you dare question my sanity. This is a question I put to you; Do you know what it's like being born to lose? You can't break what's already been broken, built back up and came back stronger. And losing twice is not an option. Beware the fools.

Never Ends 02:12
A life of hurt is all I’ve known, 24 years of nothing more. A bitterness left in my mouth, it's the only taste that seems to last. I have never forgiven you, for the life you put me through. No regrets, but I never will. Nowhere left to go. No hope left on this road. Murderous thoughts and a vindictive streak, top it all off with a will to succeed. I’m quick to snap and last to think, repercussions of actions that I'll never see. Back to reality, I'm cold again, no more fantasies. I flirted with a positive nature, but this path I will never falter. Make no apologies, you never need to. Show forgiveness, they don’t deserve it, none.
