Force-Fed

I cannot live, knowing Ill die like this
I've put a damper on my life
It's given me a mental lisp
Facing my problems with a whole new perception, this is a calling to your mental deception
Force fed, believe everything that's said
I'm never gonna be someone I'm not
So I'll just focus on who I am and what I've got, (what I've got) I'm dead set on living
I am dead set, dead set on living this life to the fullest because
Words on paper are much easier said than done
But.. your mouth stays open
And your mind stays closed
If your thoughts are dead
Then your life is comatose
Your mouth, stays open
And your mind stays closed
So, If your thoughts are dead
Then your life is comatose

Dead Thoughts
03:19
|

Open your mind
Open eyes will be the first to see
And closed minds will be first to believe
My bones, may break
But my beliefs won't shake
I won't shake
Open eyed and closed mind
Is all we've ever known
Nothing will ever change
And you will die alone
Here we go time and time again
New time, new place
New time, new place, new lessons learned and all your bridges burned
Stop, shut up and think about your life and just rewind
Rewind
Open eyes will be the first to see
And closed minds will be first to believe
My bones, may break
But my beliefs won't shake
I won't shake

Perception
04:35
|

I refuse to put my faith in all of you
Don't put your hopes and dreams in everyone you see cuz time will show you that your just distancing reality
My faith doesn't have to be in a box
These are the cards that I've been dealt
I refuse to blame everyone else for my iniquities
I fall short every single time
But it's the struggle that makes the bigger man inside
Does anyone know where Im coming from? (Where I'm coming from)
Im aware that the words I speak are not the dominant thing to do but I still respect every single one of you
As long as you practice what you fucking preach
You just don't know how long your arms reach
You don't know how long your arms reach, preach
Who gives a fuck what everyone else does, believe what you want
Because your life is yours
You just don't know how long your arms reach
You don't know how long your arms reach
Opposite ends of the spectrum can live in harmony

Brainwashed
03:31

If we stand together we will not be divided by lies
A single body to represent the human race, it has no gender, it has no face
Nothing more than what we allow it to be, the downfall of humanity will not get the best of me
One body, one mind
Composed of the masses logic and the vessel to contain the host of chronic
A disease of the mind, were the ones who've tied ourselves up this time
A disease of the mind
How did we get here now?
This life we live is nothing short of a crime (Nothing short of a crime)
We're finding no one but ourselves to blame
We can no longer function
Our minds have become slaves
We've brought upon our own destruction, were pointing fingers when we need reconstruction
The end is coming swift, sweet by and by
Remember how you were born clean and free, is that how you will die?
Is that how you will die?
One body, one mind
Composed of the masses logic and the vessel to contain the host of chronic
A disease of the mind, were the ones who've tied ourselves up this
I've got no place if it's not true to myself
Heart on my sleeve and my heads up high
My conscience is clear, my dreams are stacked to the sky
One body one mind
A disease of the mind but we have got a chance to change ourselves this time

The Potters Field

People never change
Don't even bother, save your time
After all, to each his own
Another lesson, another re-broken bone
People of Earth as a whole have fallen over and over into the same hole
Pacing in the same steps, this vessel sinks to the depths
To the depths
He never remembers and she never forgets
This house is an ugly place
I am so sick of it
When your life flashes before your eyes maybe then you'll separate the truth from lies
You're six feet under and who's to blame? Fuck

Mourning
02:51
|
|||
God, I'm standing here, hope I do not fall, heart is beating fast, my backs against the wall
A single thought just to recognize
That the pain is real, we keep it deep inside
What you really meant to me, how could I ever show, the love you shared to me, I will let it grow
and now my memory is all that's left
It's just a reminder of that last breath
That last breath
Out of my sight but never out of my mind
Grandpa, Grandma, mother, lover, till the end, my uncle, or maybe my best friend
For the atheists, and the Christians, the non-believers and the hypocrites
I'd like to think, it's as easy as
everyone together for eternity
happily
No more colored skin,
no more bullying, no more blood shed
Out of my sight but never out of my mind

Walking away from the only life you've ever known, these dark days they will never leave you alone
I cannot focus, I cannot see
I don't remember what I am suppose to be
I fall, this is not the end (pick yourself up once again
We fall, this is not the end (pick ourselves up once again)
The outcast in all of us will be buried alive, dig in deep and try not to live a lie
Hell openly welcomes you
Keep it up and try to keep it down
Digest every single lie
You've ever told yourself
There's nothing left inside
Your conscience has died
I fall, this is, not the end (pick yourself up once again)
We fall, this is, not the end (pick ourselves up once again) we fall
The outcast in all of us will be buried alive, dig in deep and try not to live a lie
Would you say you've wasted your life?
Full of guilt and hate and strife?

I will stand, when they all fall
Your dying to speak out
But you don't make a sound
This life is what you make, you're going further and faster down which ever path you take
What path will you take?
Day in, day out, start it over now
Day in, day out, when will you turn your life around?
Hearts on sleeve, heads up high
Hearts on sleeve and my heads up high
Like I said
Like I said, try to dig in deep and try not to live a lie
I'll see my struggles through
I will see my struggles through and there's not a thing that you can do
We live and learn
We crash and burn
Judged not broken
Silent words are spoken
I'm keeping my life on track, you should do the same or just get back
Day in, day out, start it over now
Day in, day out, when will you turn your life around?
Just before you open your mouth
Take a second to open your mind
Not a bone in my body will tell you
How to live your life
But that's a two way street and
Any bone of yours better not cross the line because this life is mine

SFH

From the start I vowed to stay true to my art
When I speak you shake because you are weak
You're quote on quote career falls apart just like your two faced mask
You aren't even a shimmer in my waste you force fed piece of shit
Tighter still on the noose
They've got nothing left to lose
Falling apart, tearing at the seams
It's your faint glimpse of your reality
I smell death, you look low
They take you away, you'll go down below
These black sheep, they sell themselves cheap for an extra dollar
How can you sleep at night knowing you lie to yourself?
You're not a martyr
Your life lies to itself and you're through, this life you've made is fake
Your life lies to itself and you're through this life you've made is fake, oh shit
Trade me your life I wouldn't give you a bucket of piss
In re turn, you will burn
I wouldn't, put you out
With your own waste let alone my own. Squeal pig
These black sheep, they sell themselves cheap for an extra dollar How can you sleep at night knowing you lie to yourself?
You're not a martyr, no
False prophets are all around
Keep your eyes peeled for the ones
Don't let your guard down
Sell yourself cheap
South Florida heavy will rise

Strangled
05:06
|

Darker and darker my mind is going farther away from me
Will I be able to see myself
Getting over this?
I will never neglect you, I will never forget you
I re-live your final days everytime I close my eyes
Everytime I see you
Struggling with this constant ruthless disease
There was nothing I could do
Eight years ago today
How did the time slip away?
For so long I sat and watched her decay
I Watched her fall further away
The struggle never ends and all the days they blend
I'm down here keeping on but it's been so hard with you gone
(With you gone)
My mind is growing dark
Every thought I have is dead I cannot get these images out of my head
My mind is growing dark, every thought I have is dead, I cannot get these images out of my head
I can't get up, fuck
Cold skin, brittle bones, strangled alive, I'm all alone
I'm scarred forever and I am strangled to death
I'm all alone
