Overcome 01:53
Don't look now Hell is coming quick Like it or not You're all a part of it Good or bad You're not allowed to choose When decisions are made Someone's gonna lose With life comes struggle One way or another It's something you can't cover So instead overcome (2x) Win or lose Life is just a game Play how you want But deal with the shame Contention Everywhere you look Who can you trust Your loved ones are the crooks With life comes struggle One way or another It's something you can't cover So instead overcome (4x)

I will not go back, this place is not for me Its full of thieves and liars, it lacks morality I'm not looking back because there's nothing to see For the people trapped there, all I have is pity I'm not going back I'm sure of that I'm not going back I'm sure that I'm not looking back because there's nothing to see For the people trapped there all I have is pity I have done my time from beginning to end It's time to move on from this damn wasteland I'm not going back I'm sure of that I'm not going back I'm sure of that It's time to move on from this damn wasteland

Broken World 01:41
I did not come from a broken home But I was born in a broken world Where the rich get richer And the poor get killed Yeah the rich get richer And the poor get killed Opportunity is slim for folks of the lower class Can't seem to get anywhere without kissing ass It's all about who you know character means nothing Few catch that break to gain a little something For those of you who need a sign That things will get better Don't get your hopes up But don't you get sadder Because one day things will change It will all get rearranged And we can fix this fucking world So we don't get screwed anymore No more

I am sick of hearing who's wrong or right You're all wrong in my eyes What makes you think your side has all of the solutions? Why don't you think for yourself? And stop wasting your time Listening to politicians lies And we can hope (HOPE!) Hope for a better tomorrow There's no open minds just open mouths Polluting the simple-minded Republicans and Democrats I have no faith We all could use a fucking change So stop wasting my time I'm not listening to your lies And we can hope (HOPE!) Hope for a better tomorrow There's no open minds just open mouths Polluting the simple-minded Republicans and Democrats I have no faith We all could use a fucking change So stop wasting my time I'm not listening to your lies And we can hope (HOPE!) Hope for a better tomorrow

I don't know how I feel So whats the point in talking You're all over me Like a wolf stalking it's prey Don't sit me down For a one on one conversation You won't get anything out of me You won't get an explanation I'm not isolating myself I just have nothing to say You can say what you want I'll do it my own way I don't know how I feel So whats the point in talking You're all over me Like a wolf stalking it's prey Don't even try to judge me Who are you to say Keep it to yourself You won't drive me away Maybe someday I'll share Whats on my mind But that day is not today So leave that idea behind I don't know how I feel So whats the point in talking You're all over me Like a wolf stalking it's prey

I don't want to grow up You don't want to grow old Reality is fucked Everything is sold You shut your eyes And you say good night Put up a fucking fight Soak in everything that they say Use it all against them in the future one day Come on motherfuckers stand up and say You're not gonna take that bull shit everyday Come on motherfuckers stand up and say You're not gonna take that fucking bull shit everyday Everyday (3x) One-two, One-two fuck you Do you like control? (Fuck that shit) Do you like the rules? (Fuck that shit) Are you under control? (Fuck that shit) Do you follow the rules? (Fuck that shit)

Let Me Be Me 01:21
Let me be me with no regulation No interrogation on what I do Just let me be me (LET ME BE ME!) Stop with the criticisms of choices that I make You're input means nothing to me They are words I'll never tolerate I hope you see now I ain't changing one thing I'll be who I am forever You know I'm proud of it Let me be me with no regulation No interrogation on what I do Just let me be me (LET ME BE ME!) Don't try to shape me up or I'll be shipping out You may not be listening but I will still shout Let me be me with no regulation No interrogation on what I do Just let me be me (LET ME BE ME!)

I work my whole life just to survive I'll tell you one thing that is true I take it day to day as time flickers away But I still won't give in to you She wants a different life Kids and be a wife Build a nest to call her own But all I want in life Is my guitar by my side Travel through these lonely roads I work my whole life just to survive I'll tell you one thing that is true I take it day to day as time flickers away But I still won't give in to you She wants a different life Kids and be a wife Build a nest to call her own But all I want in life Is my guitar by my side Travel through these lonely roads And I don't want it The simple kind of life And I don't need it Everything that you despise (2x) I work my whole life just to survive I'll tell you one thing that is true I take it day to day as time flickers away But I still won't give in to you She wants a different life Kids and be a wife Build a nest to call her own But all I want in life Is my guitar by my side Travel through these lonely roads And I don't want it The simple kind of life And I don't need it Everything that you despise (2x)

I don't want to be another clone like them Everyone around me doing the same damn thing I don't want to feel like everywhere I go Seeing the same people and they're not themselves Individuality is non-existent Acting like the people on your television set Individuality on a downhill slope Get your own opinions and point of views You're all brainwashed there's no hope You're just another clone I don't want to be another clone like them Falling in to the same damn shit I can't believe a single word you're saying Because you're wrong just like everyone else Individuality is non-existent Acting like the people on your television set Individuality on a downhill slope Get your own opinions and point of views You're all brainwashed there's no hope You're just another clone

What the fuck What the fuck is left to say Take it everyday Everyday, every fucking day Trying, trying to make things work While I try to stay alive I'm tired Wanting just to settle down Try and not be sad Sitting here sipping on a Mickey's Thats all I ever have Walking on the streets Where will I go next? Wanna cut back on getting loaded But I can't now that I'm a mess Now that I'm a... Wanting to stay the same Don't deserve this name It's just a drain of piss poor luck Too bad nobody gives a fuck Feeling all the cracks Of my dried up sun worn skin While I wander aimlessly I hope someone can save me I hope someone can save me I'm tired Wanting just to settle down Try and not be sad Sitting here sipping on a Mickey's Thats all I ever have Walking on the streets Where will I go next? Wanna cut back on getting loaded But I can't now that I'm a mess Now that I'm a mess Now that I'm a mess Now that I'm a fucking mess Now that I'm a mess
