My Wall 02:45
I've built this wall! Of my friends and my family, helping me to reach tall Can't climb the ladder of life without support It's always taught me to never sell myself short It puts me in my place A welcomed guide to prevent my straying ways It brings a smile to my face Even when I felt lost Learnt hard lessons, and the cycle renews And when I'm feeling so bad, and I'm feeling so used I can count on it's many layers to get me through I'm not afraid to fall This is my wall I'm not afraid to fall Cause I've built this wall Of my friends and my family, helping me to stand tall And when the rest of the world walked out on me My wall kept me, that's what I call family I'm not afraid to fall This is my wall I'm not afraid to fall Cause I've built this wall

It's time to break the mold This world is oh so cold and you've sufferred on your own sometimes it's hard I know, and it gets worse when you're alone We're here right now, just let it go Now what the fuck are you waiting for Stand up, and be heard We're not the first, and I hope we're not the last Win the war was just a warning Wake up cause it's a new morning You want it? We got it! We'll see how much you want it You're motivated by fame, and that's a losing game We feel alive with our backs to the world and your just fucking it up for yourself, ain't that the fucking truth 1, 2, 3, 4 - Move suckers hit the floor! 5, 6, 7, 8 - Step it up it's not to late 1, 2, 3, 4 - Motherfuckers hit the floor Here we go, back for more Where it's at, we're back on track We ain't going out like that This shit is getting old, We've seen it all so overrated No matter how many ways you play it theres no way to say it, but I hate it We're here right now, just let it show. Now what the fuck are we waiting for Stand up, and be heard! We're not the first, and I hope we're not the last Win the war was just a warning, Wake up cause it's a new morning

What's there to show? So many years of lies with a seed of truth And we've failed to notice. Can't trust the facts, but their facts are all we know Subdue the foe! Manipulate to change what the world holds ture Just by our own ignorance! We trust their facts, cause their facts are all that's shown Everyone has an agenda. It's the age of disinformation. We're pawns in this game, facts twisted to fit the new agenda And we won't settle for the blatant vagueness, the misleading statements Deceptive in their truths, and the clever use of their messengers Fuck their fictions! Break through the noise, beyond the lies, now it's time to see with our one eyes. Distort their signals, undermine. Bring back the focus. They just provoke this

I'm searching day by day, searching what life has in store for me So many years, you'd think I'd figure it out, and I got something to prove But I can't quite point it out. My backs against the wall, I'm struggling but I can't resolve. The grey of life is a mystery, I gotta look within myself Stem the tide of uncertainty The fear is worse than failing. So I don't even try I question everything about me Am I a living lie? The who, the what, the when, where, why. The how did I succumb? I gotta look within myself, if I'm to overcome I'm gonna find my way to say it, live and die for it. I'll make a difference that lasts! We'll I'm doing just fine, lessons learned, i'm ahead of the times I've caught myself in a bind It doesn't matter cause I've STEMMED THE TIDE

It's been a long time coming Shit's been bumping along. Now listen! Not ashamed of a lengthy consultation. Had to figure it out as one! I realized I couldn't do it myself, for what it's worth, kept my eye on the prize. It's just a matter of time and not a matter of pride. I couldn't sit back and watch this all pass by That's how it goes you know, that's how I'm feeling it for myself, and I'm a let it flow That's how it goes you know, that's how I'm feeling it for myself, and I'm a let it show And I won't place the blame on anything; all I need was just some days That's why I kept it so low, I'm still feeling it though, and I'm just waiting on ourselves, cause I know Bring out the best in me, I learn the most when it stalls Tough times bring Tougher minds, and when I'm feeling the hit, I'll just stop and press rewind. Sit back and laugh. look at how it evolved What's been before, is what will always be, it's just a matter of when from what I've seen

Day By Day 01:52
Living life day by day, confused at where I stand Coasting in no direction, not the life I planned Not sure which path to take, or where to turn It's my time to break through, not to crash and burn take one step at time Be sure not to cross the line Break the chains, cut the binds Everyone's leaving you behind Try hard to put life together Nothing changes, no worse, no better My friends help me run this neverending race Try hard to put life together Nothing changes, no worse, no better Help me to survive , put life in it's place All the things that I despise Day by day look me in the eyes All the things that I despise Break through the shit, and cut the ties

Unmistakeable! The heart and soul From the Anthems of old, we've built a scene to call our own Look at how we've grown, from unknown to full blown We were the kids in the front row, the kids that never missed a show And you say you're dying to leave here But you're leaving so much behind I had the chance to leave myself But these memories flood my mind This is where my heart lies To the kids that eat, don't sleep, and breathe their hometown scene Working long and hard, still coming out, still showing respect to new breeds To the ones before us, who built this dream All the champions who saw it through, this ones for you! We're gonna scream, We're gonna scream and shout it Show our pride, no doubt about it Cause no matter how far we go, there's only one place that we call home Unshakeable, the pride inside Champions at heart, don't rule us out without a fight No matter what they say, we keep playing the way we play We want it all, we're still standing tall, cause in the end we're not afraid to fall

I've felt the blood drip from my face My body struggled with the pace, and I didn't care it's cause I got there Determined last year I'd be here. Been beaten, broken, curses spoken, didn't matter, my minds unbroken No matter how hard they tried, denied their triumph, Unconquerable No feat beyond my reach, I took the path of most resistance Turned obstacles, into opportunities, some say the last of a dying breed No rivals, nothing can bring my downfall. I've built up this unbreakable will looked deep within myself, depend on no one else. Nothing can stop me now, not hits, won't quit, all grit, my vow Been here many times before, gotta keep my head up if I'm to settle the score. Got back up on my feet, my one true enemy is defeat I've felt the sweat drip from my brow. This type of stress I won't allow and I didn't care it's cause I got there Determined last year, I'd be here Been beaten, broken, curses spoken. Didn't matter my minds unbroken No matter how hard they tried, denied their triumph Unconquerable Let Everybody know Unconquerable

What's wrong with the kids today? All of them trying to be famous celebrities. act like they made it big. Well i don't see an ounce of dignity They walk around like they're something they're not. They're outter shell gleams, while their inner self rots. One day they'll realize to be true, shine through. and shed that disguise You ain't playing the palace yet, so show yourself some self respect You're so eager to stake your claim. You're blinded by this false sense of fame You ain't playing the palace yet, so show yourself some self respect. You gotta keep it down to earth and find your own sense of self worth you're lost in other peoples lives delusioned in your sense of pride these goals you have to realize They're heads held so high
