NEVER FALTER
02:00

I must never give in to what they say
Negative voices surround me everyday
Always trying to break me down
I won't let them win, I will not fail
My word is my bond
I will carry on
I will never cave
I will never break
Failure is not an option
I will vow to myself to
Never falter

WISE UP
02:42
|

|
You build up our mental walls
You barricade our minds
You paralyze every sense
We use to ensure we survive
We need to wise up to who you are
I can't believe I didn't see
We need to wise up to who you are
You don't mean a thing to me
You tell us that we're damaged
You tell us that we're insane
You say you're here to protect us
But all you do is cause us pain
We need to wise up to who you are
I can't believe I didn't see
We need to wise up to who you are
You don't mean a thing to me
I never read between the lines
And saw what you really do
You need to wake up and watch your back
Because the joke's on you
The barricades have been torn down
And now a single word can cause a fucking war
If you look inside, you'll see what's true
And I don't trust you so I've got my eyes on you
I don't have anything left to say
And no love for you, but I don't like you anyway
We need to wise up to who you are
I let my guard down too soon
We need to wise up to who you are
I never should have trusted you
We need to wise up to who you are
I can't believe I didn't see
We need to wise up to who you are
You don't mean a thing to me

PENANCE
02:16
|
|||
|
I've paid my penance
I've done my time
I've cleared my sentence
Now I'm
Reeducated
Afraid to speak
The road ahead of me
Looking bleak
Starting now, for the rest of my life
I made an oath to be loyal to me
I have the will to forge the path
I have the strength to be free
And if this promise I can't keep to myself
I have the power to self-destruct
I know the consequence is ever severe
Because I've dealt with tough luck
So I push myself into oblivion

FAMILY AFFAIR
04:43
|
|||
|
I knelt down to pray today and escape
I know you heard me cause I could feel you
I'm sick of wondering if this is a mistake
Give me direction, give me the truth
I feel like I've been here before
Because I carried this weight forever well
There's only two fates in this hell
Watching everyone you love suffer, or you can suffer yourself
Cause it's a family affair
We pass it down through the blood, through the air
Keeping me on my toes with that evil stare
Cause it's a family affair
I live my life to erase the sorrow
Because I might not be here tomorrow
I gotta walk with my head upright
Because this family is why I fight
No choice but to carry on
Forged in blood for so long
Forever bound to right the wrongs
I pass the torch down for when I'm gone
Cause it's a family affair
We pass it down through the blood, through the air
Keeping me on my toes with that evil stare
Never giving in to despair
The blood, the bond, that's what I've got to pass down
Strength
To maintain your dignity
Pride
To protect your family
Honor
To maintain your virtues
Wrong from right, which road will you choose?
It's your choice, win or lose
These are the values we carry on
What will you pass down learned from your enemies?
Where will you turn with bad times coming your way?
How will you be strong to the ones you love the most?
And when you're gone, who will be left to say
the things that you came to say?
