Born To... 00:59
Your days have a number With quite a few digits So quit your "All hope is lost!" I'm done with all your Procrastination And inactivity makes me tired We're born to die it's true But there's a life between the two So read between the lines Find something to stand by x2 So quit your "what if"'s and no more complaining Quit your wasted time and no more abstaining Take a chance on life instead of refraining Until it's too late, and you're fuckin' fading. Born To Born To Live
2.
Deceit 00:58
Hypocrisy blurring lines between fact and fiction Think it once, think it twice before your decision Are you sure of these moves that you're making? Are you sure of these risks that you're taking? Don't get too caught up in your web of lies To see your impending, inevitable demise I don't need all your two-faced half-truths Let's make an example out of you, put you up to some use.

Programming 01:34
I'm sick and i'm tired of being hard fucking wired A slave to modern ideals We're wrapped in chains that we never noticed And now we're all used to the weight This binding it won't break from force Roots they have sunk far too deep All we have left are ideas They make us more than the sheep ARRGH ERRRGH UUUUGHHH So fill your head with rebel songs and raise up the cry We fight with thoughts and must free our minds For a better purpose, and for a new life Before we're choked to death on their lines
4.
It seems you've heard that "Might makes Right" Which is why you pummel everyone in sight Inflict pain to show that you're on "top" Posture and pose so everybody knows You'll spin-kick their head if they throw any 'bows I thought this scene was about unity? You're Why Hardcore Sucks
5.
Pool Shark 00:54
It seems you've got nothing better to do Than pick fights like a fucking tool This tough guy act is nothing new You aren't big, and you aren't cool x2 You didn't put me down, or in my place You just gave me a reason To wanna punch out every tooth Every tooth in your fucking face
6.
Minor Step 01:23
We sit and we wait, we watch and we pray For all our hopes, to be one day Never knowing, all along It's actions that make, hopes grow strong I sit in this hole, that I dug just for me It's strange to think, this is where I'd be After all these years, life passes on by Sitting here stuck, feels like I'm waiting to die
7.
So you say you believe in the truth Don't sell your soul, be a "good" person Never tell any lies And don't give in to your vices Be sure not to harm thy neighbor Treat others how they'd like to be treated Pay no heed to the serpent So are you a sinner or saint? I'm sorry to say that you've fallen Perhaps you're sold to the devil in disguise Your tongue is as good as forked And you're lying through your teeth Your neighbor is burned at the stake You thought they were too "radical" If this is how you treat others How would you like your compensation?
8.
Turn around You need another perspective You see things aren't what they seem, they never seem to be Always more than two sides Always more than just one "right" Look around Not everything is black and white There's a million paths to take but you're stuck on the rails Your tunnel vision's set in Peripheral thoughts are thin Black and White Hatred and spite Need to keep your Head on tight Black and White Hatred and Spite Playing god Is no one's right x2
