Now my dark eyes never seen so clear to look beyond everything you fear Connect the past to a present you hate You just shake your fucking head and walk away I'm the one who still believes there's something left deep inside you there's no hope in an unclenched fist there's no end when you believe in this still beating, still burning Against the tide turning still beating, still burning Fan the flame, stake your claim Open your eyes we’re one in the same Still Burning Fan The Flame Hearing voices in your head Feeling tightness in the chest A chip on your shoulder and the smile hid the rest you can’t cope, no you can’t feel we got to know some pain to show we’re still here there’s no hope in an unclenched fist there’s no end when you believe in this still beating still burning

Growing up with our eyes spread wide So we can look across the spectrum of shades When the sand turns into stone we see the world’s black and white become grey Holding onto all my values Letting go of all I’ve been through Innocence is lost to greed and the sweet becomes a bitter taste Friendship grown from chemistry Now rivals in a constant race Holding onto all my values Letting go of all I’ve been through The last repentance Burning in the flames Those who cross me will remember my name Sinking my teeth Into life and death Ripping the flesh from my former self As long as blood's still flowing red I still need your words in my head Waking life has no cure for spite I want to stay asleep with my teeth clenched tight And I’ll never wake up from a dream Where the road always leads To the promise of peace and a slate wiped clean Keeping up on my history Hanging from the family tree As long as blood's still flowing red I Still need your words in my head

Dead men tell no tales But their graves still carry weight There’s a war coming Fought by those who spit on fate Tired hungry masses Sick of empty dinner plates There’s a war coming Fought by those with a bitter taste No more “fall in line” No more "know your place" Growing to see A world that's ripe to take Storm the bastille riot the draft Easter Rebellion taken and never asked When our eyes are blind and our noses turned the displaced rise up to take what we never earned Fearing revolution Can you feel your death grip loosen? Fearing revolution Your TV’s showing all the Restlessness Bitterness Catalysts Vehemence Fearing revolution They got their trigger fingers moving Oppression’s common theme The silent finally scream The threat of oncoming war Fought by those who spit on fate

Awakening 02:43
Free of the “I” and “Mine” Ready to finally see severing everything keeping me under lock and key when we cease to exist our mind is truly free Bypassing the social hierarchy This is what i need to take the pressure off of me Awakening to break the chained reality   Awakening Ignite this fire inside of me Awakening Light Is cast on shadows of doubt Tighten the vice, sharpen the knife consciousness The escape from which we kill We are the dogs that can’t be trained Progression through breaking yourself
5.
What’s it going to take to fucking change If these habits are ingrained? When everything comes apart gradually We ignore what comes to us naturally If you don't know what the product is The product is you If you don't know where the money is The profit's growing huge Punishment 'Cause we’re just a zero on the page In a book that tells the story of our fate Punishment against Exploitation the human err Exploitation Why we fail Punishment Enduring punishment
6.
No Purity 03:28
Placing your blame on the other And Pointing fingers for your struggles playing the victim complicit system The evil eye cast from your white gaze Is too blind to see, the house of esteem Was built on the backs of slaves No purity Just inequality A false story of pride A coward’s tale From the mouth of those Who watched their dreams all fail Those values that you preach don’t apply to yourself Playing the victim, complicit system turn your back just like everybody else No purity Just inequality The fear in those who hold everything Begins when power slips From their hands
7.
Filling up from empty ‘til the tank is replete Fueling tension inside from the years of deceit Got to find the purpose of the strain in the seams 'Cause we focus on a moment but our life’s in between Think you should die for Obsessiveness to strive for The future’s just the present with a mask over the eyesore not another second searching for redemption If i pray to your god would you forgive my mistakes If i accepted your love would you remember my face Even the Sharpest Sword Will eventually rust Even the dullest blade Can make the deepest cut Look at the faces of those that were entrusted to me Feeling the weight of the world to hold the strength of your beliefs Relentless drive towards singular focus Reject the mantras of the beaten and hopeless
Even the Sharpest Sword Will eventually rust Even the dullest blade Can make the deepest cut If I pray to your god Would you forgive my mistakes If i accepted your love Would you remember my face Scars line up like steps to climb You sew up yours I’ll sew up mine Scale the wall of our regrets Marching forward to the death
8.
Taste the steel from the barrel of hate Feel the power in the grip of rage No one's coming for you in the night No one's coming looking for a fight Don’t you feel like a man With the power by your side You’ll right the wrongs You’ll pave the cracks You’ll fix the seal For the coming attack Aren’t you tired of watching your back? A choice to do nothing is a vote for yes A choice to do nothing is a vote for death Sell Your Cause Branding your own chest with battle scars You’ll right the wrongs You’ll pave the cracks You’ll fix the seal For the coming attack Sell Your cause Branding your own chest with battle scars

Heads stuck in the sand But their hands are raised Praying for the glory days With convictions strong and knowledge weak shouting down about your beliefs Turn your head away when question’s asked to defend yourself from the proven facts And set your brain to shit when it doesn’t fit In the box you’ve made for your new Eden Suffering leads to frustration and fear through media issued panic stricken world view And what you think Ain’t what it is So face it Sheltered life fed on lies it's the knowledge you despise cowardice, censorship your brain can’t even fathom it Evolution gives a voice to what’s suppressed The myth of our fathers is the cause of our unrest

Poison 03:39
Got a thousand mile stare looking back I remember what it’s like to walk the tracks 'Cause we go off course and we lose our way But it’s a bright white light at the end of the day Gain a year, lose some hope Got a lump in my throat Stay up or sink below A frozen brain can paralyze the truth Melt it ‘til the soul starts leaking through Handshakes drop and calls go missed See you soon’s turn to “meant to give’s” Conversation with familiar sounds You just like letting me know you’re still around I’m still around Get yourself on a higher level break the plane and i’m with you whenever Get yourself on a higher level Break the plane and i’m with you forever I watch the ones I love In their search for peace They can’t understand What they were meant to achieve I watch the ones I love In their search for peace Why can’t you understand You got everything
