No Holding Back

(Explicit)
Go
I've hidden in the shadows
For far too long
Always worrying about what's right
And what's wrong
I've kept myself from moving forward
Caused by anxiety's endless disorder
I let what others said
Get into my head
And shape shift my mind
Leaving me full of dread
I've been to hell and back
From all the pain I've felt
Lost friends and broken hearts
The bad hands I've been dealt
The times I've felt alone
With nowhere to call home
Changed me in many ways
To who I am today
I will stay strong
And never back down
Keep pushing for my dreams
I'll never back down
No more holding back
You think you can keep me
From being happy
I'm sorry
You're greatly mistaken
Your shitty opinions
Mean nothing
Your ignorance
Is really disgusting
I will stay strong
And never back down
Keep pushing for my dreams
I'll never back down
I'll keep living my life
And do the best I can
Do what I love to do
And be a better man
We all make our own paths
But have our destiny
There's no more holding back
I'll be what I want to be
No more holding back

Lost My Mind
03:45

(Explicit)
I lost my mind
So very long ago
So hard to find
Some sanity in this hole (x2)
I'm falling further
Into this pit of despair
I'm coming face to face
With everything that I fear
Is this my hell?
Or just the world I live in?
My purgatory
Made to regret my sins
My growing darkness
Slowly devours the light
There is no hope for me
Or an end in sight
Born with disease
Spreading around like flames
Fully engulfing me
Quickly throughout my brain
Growing self hatred
Formed by society
Growing self hatred
Building inside of me
Release aggression
On myself angrily
Release aggression
On those around me (x2)
I don't need help
It's what I keep telling myself (x3)
But I need help
Or I'll end up killing myself
I lost my mind
So very long ago
So hard to find
Some sanity in this hole (x4)
I keep on fighting
With no promise of peace
I keep on fighting
With this dreaded disease (x2)

Burn

(Explicit)
Burn
I've grown this hatred
For you and how you act
Your actions went to far
You cannot take them back
I'm done with listening
To what you have to say
Telling me what to do
You don't control me
Fuck your rules
Fuck your system
I will free myself
From this prison (x2)
Burn
Urgh
I won't put up with this
For too much longer
You've pushed me to the edge
But I am stronger
You treated me like shit
Made me feel worthless
I will have my revenge
Through any consequence
How do you sleep at night?
With all the pain you've caused
With everyone you've hurt
And every friend you've lost
I thought you would have learned
Your lesson long ago
No no one's by your side
You're left here all alone
My face will haunt you
The rest of your life
I'll never leave your mind
You will burn down in flames
Stripped of your sanity
I'll watch you suffer
Living this nightmare
You will burn down in flames
Burn
Urgh
You will regret the day
You ever crossed my path
You stabbed me in the back
Now you will feel my wrath (x2)

My Sorrow
05:25

|
(clean)
I've been here for many days
Every passing second
Watching over you
I've been forced to sit right here and see
All the suffering that you're going through
I wish there was a way to make it end
I feel so useless
You were my best friend
I feel you slipping away
I feel you slipping away
Ahhh
I always feared this day
I feel you slipping away
Ahhh
You went through life always staying strong
Through all the hardships
And all that went wrong
All the sicknesses you battled every day
You always conquered them
You always found a way
Through my life you always cared for me
Our times when we were together happily
Without your guidance I don't know where I'd be
I've come to grips with this reality
I don't know life without you in it
There's a huge hole in my heart now since
You left me in my arms when I held you
You left me on this Earth without you
I never got enough time to say
How much you really meant to me
Grabbing hold of your hand so tight
Hoping you'd feeling me and know everything's alright
I feel you slipping away
Ahhh
I always feared this day
I feel you slipping away
Ahhh
You opened your eyes for only me it seemed
Telling me you loved me in a look that gleamed
You told me you didn't want to leave me too
But your time had come and there's nothing we could do
I watched you as you gazed into my eyes
It's the last time I'd see you
It was your goodbye
You smiled at me once more then faded away
You gave me closure so I knew you'd be okay
I can't believe you're gone (x8)
It's hard to believe
That this is really happening
It's hard to believe
A life without you is baffling
Waking ups the hardest part
The realization hits me hard
Thinking everything's the same
Then remembering you're gone is the darkest pain
I don't know life without you
You were always there as I grew
I still feel you around me
Checking on me so frequently
I hope you know I'll be okay
I knew I'd have to face this day
I hope you know I loved you
And I'll never forget you too

Memories

(Clean)
Yeah!
You were taken from me
Too early in life
I wish I could bring you back
Or see you tonight
There’s so much
That I want to say to you
There’s so much
I need to let you know
Now that I’m mature I
Cherish all our times
I wish I could go back
And
Live each one again with you
Show you I loved you
That I would miss you
What I would do
For your advice
And your wise
Knowledge in life
If only you could
See me now
And all I’ve done
You would be so proud
If it wasn’t for your courage
Our family would not exist
The way you pursued your dreams
Through bravery you’ll be missed
I`ve always tried to be someone good
To be a man just like you
It hasn`t been very easy
But staying strong was the right thing to do
I wish I could see you again
After all this pain
After all this shame (x2)
Your memory`s
Always are in my
Heart
Helping me
Stand up Tall
I`m falling away from you
There`s nothing that I can do (x4)

Hate
03:45
|
|||
|
(Explicit)
Yeah
Urghh
I never thought I’d hate someone as much as you
From everything you say
To everything you do
I’m sick of all your lies
Your immature disguise
The shadows of deceit
That formulate from your conceit
You think you’re better than
Everybody else
And deserve everything
Handed right to you
You’re so fucking fake
It’s driving me insane
You’re so fucking fake
It’s driving me insane
You act like someone else
To simply fit in
Cause you can’t be yourself
When you’re not genuine
You succumb to pressure
That others put on you
Then talk behind their backs
When there’s the chance to
Fuck you
You’ve grown this ego
Where you think you’re so hot
But put no effort in
So you are clearly not
You can’t ride on coat tails
For all of your life
It will catch up to you
And stab you like a knife
You’re so fake
It’s driving me insane (x8)
I fucking hate you
It’s time for you to
Grow up and be mature
Take off your stupid mask
Show who you really are (x2)

Djust Kill Me Now
03:59
|
|||
|
(Clean)
No matter how I act
I always get stabbed right in the back
Everyone treats me
Like I’m not worth anything
I’m always alone
Depressed and left here on my own
Shotgun to my head
I’ll probably be happier if I’m dead
I, have no soul
No heart, no one to trust
I’m such a failure
Just kill me now
Every time that I
Think about my life I cry
I breakdown and drink
The more I’m drunk the less I think
I feel so worthless
My whole life is just one big mess
I’m giving up on this
Condemn myself to my abyss
Throw my life away
No longer want to stay
There’s no one I need
I’m filled with selfish greed
Push you all away
No longer want to stay
I will end my name
Only myself to blame
Just, just kill me now
I hate life anyhow
Just, just kill me now
I wanna die somehow
Just, just kill me now
I hate life anyhow
Just, just kill me
Just kill me
Now
Now
Just, kill me (x4)

Uprising
02:36

|
(Explicit)
The future is bright
Fight for your rights
The ones who are strong
Are the ones who live on (x2)
They think they rule us
And control us
Predictive programming
Instilled from long ago
They're always watching us
From above in the skies
Creating conspiracies
Telling us of all their lies
This is an uprising
It's our rebellion
This is an uprising
Liberate everyone (x2)
Blinding perceptions
With all their marketing
Creating celebrities
Divert attention
Killing the masses
For reign and money
Dictating all our lives
In every country
This is an uprising
It's our rebellion
This is an uprising
Liberate everyone (x2)
They have their hold on us
But we can break free
We'll start a revolution
And change society
We won't get pushed around
Or disrespected
This is our world
Fuck the government
Fuck the government
The future is bright
Fight for your rights
The ones who are strong
Are the ones who live on

Our Revolution
03:57

|
(Clean)
Dig me out (x4)
Ahhhh
Dig me out
I’m trapped inside this reality
With all this bloodshed and suffering
That’s all dealt by our own hands
Our living nightmare
This
World is run by the violence
Of sins committed in silence
Death, destruction and distain
Between good and evil
World run by power
World run by money
Religious business
For the superstitious
World run by fear
World run by chaos
No one to hear
No one to save us
World run by war
World run by killing
No one survives
Everyone dies
We think we’re justified
To kill innocent souls
That choose to not abide
To our damn fiendish rules
We’ve all been separated
Through our absurdity
By all our prejudice
Ideals, uncertainty
This world was once together
Now it is falling apart
Destined to all end this way
All planned right from the start
The truths are hidden from us
We’re victims of deceit
We’re told that we’ll be saved
That this is not the end
Just as we lay here and bleed
No justice to comprehend
We all deserve paradise
But always made to suffer
Living meaningless lives
When we are something greater
Slaving away for others
Just to make them all richer
Our days are numbered to live
What else do we have to give?
This is our revolution
We have to make a change
We have to come together
We have to take control
And make this world much better
Yeah
This is our revolution
Blegh
This is our revolution
This world was once together
Now has fallen apart
Destined to all end this way
All planned right from the start
We have to make a change
We have to come together
We have to take control
And make this world much better

Betray
05:04

|
(Explicit)
Whoa Wuhhh Ohhh (x4)
Ever since the very start
I gave my whole self to you
From every ounce of my heart
And every part of me through and through
Everything we had together
Seemed so unbreakable, so untouchable
Blinding me from the unforeseen
The unforgettable, the unthinkable
We made a promise to each other
That we would be all we needed
Only have eyes for one another
Make it all work not drag us under
But somewhere along the way
Your heart and mind wandered away
Leaving me feeling like what I gave was for nothing
Leaving me wanting to just feel fucking something
Why did you betray me?
After all we've been through
After all we built too
You play the victim
Try to justify your actions
To feel less wrong
But you know it's your fault
But you know it's your fault.
Nooo (x4)
Whoa Wuhhh Ohhh (x4)
The toughest part is looking back on the past
And thinking about how the way things were
And how the good times could have lasted forever
Or at least for a little bit longer
Not every story has a happy ending
Despite how much you hoped it to
I just hope you look back on your decision
And if it really was worth it for you

(Clean)
Whoa
The dark has lifted
And now I finally see
The errors I made
From whom I used to be
The way I acted
The way I loathed myself
Wasn’t good for my life
And everybody else
I will conquer this
I won’t die from this
My eyes have opened I finally see
I’ve found true happiness deep inside me
My eyes have opened I finally see
I’ve made my changes to the man I’ll be
Life can be hard We go through many things
Ruts will try to break us
And ruin everything
We have to stay strong
And never give up too
Cause it will mend us
And make us feel anew
I will conquer this
I won’t die from this
My eyes have opened I finally see
I’ve found true happiness deep inside me
My eyes have opened I finally see
I’ve made my changes to the man I’ll be
I will conquer this
I won’t die from this
I won’t die from this
Yeah
My eyes have opened I finally see
I’ve found true happiness deep inside me
My eyes have opened I finally see
I’ve found true happiness deep inside me
My eyes have opened I finally see
I’ve made my changes to the man I’ll be
Whoa

Rock Till You're Dead
03:38

(Clean)
Yeah
[Rock until I'm dead (x2)]
No matter how I ever feel
At any given time of day
Throwing on my favourite tunes
Makes my troubles go away
Crank the volume to the max
There's no delay press play
Shouting till my lungs collapse
Listen to what I have to say
I just want to bang my head
And rock until I'm dead
I just want to sing and scream
Until my face is red
I just want to bang my head
And rock until I'm dead
Sing along to every word
And let my voice be heard (x2)
Ohhh
[Rock until I'm dead (x2)]
They all said that rock would die
But I knew that was a lie
I'm a rocker
Believer
Never failing to survive
Crank the volume to the max
There's no delay press play
Shouting till my lungs collapse
Listen to what I have to say
I just want to bang my head
And rock until I'm dead
I just want to sing and scream
Until my face is red
I just want to bang my head
And rock until I'm dead
Sing along to every word
And let my voice be heard (x2)
Whoa
[I just wanna bang my head
And rock until I'm dead (x2)]
I just want to bang my head
And rock until I'm dead
I just want to sing and scream
Until my face is red
I just want to bang my head
And rock until I'm dead
Sing along to every word
And let my voice be heard (x2)
Rock and roll will never die (x4)

Dead and Gone
05:39
|
|||
|
(Clean)
Ever since I was so young
I faced the endless search of
A reason to live
A reason to fight
But this pain has no end in sight
I've reached the end of my rope
And I can't take anymore
I've lost every ounce of hope
I'm torn and broken from this war
I have come to terms
With not wanting to be alive
It's something that has always been
Extremely hard to self confide
I wake up every single night
By an evil that's trapped inside
I'm left without any drive and desire
My spirit withins a dying fire
I've done everything I could to avoid
Confrontation and all this frustration
Left here bleeding with an absense of
Motivation and dedication
I just keep lying to myself
Saying that I will be alright
I just keep lying to myself
Saying that I will do what's right
Everything I regret keeps surfacing
After my attempts to make ammends
No matter if I'm asleep or awake
My mistakes haunt me till the end
Finding myself inching closer and closer
To taking my own life
All out of selfishness and the hopefulness
That it will end my strife
As I dissolve in a puddle of tears
And speak my last words to you
Just know I tried my best
And gave it all I had
But life has me left defeated
The voice inside of me
Cannot be silenced
It's always taking over
The only way for peace
Inside of my head
Is to give myself this closure
Help me, I have no will to live
Help me, I`m too weak to go on
Help me, I have no more to give
Help me, before I`m dead and gone (x2)
Ahhh
Dead and gone (x8)
