Urban Discipline
It's a motherfuckin' homicide, just deserts A shotgun painted right where it hurts From the inside, the ones you can trust You got connected to a serious bust You thought you were a hustler, a boy that was rude But now you're in the dirt, can of underground wormfood Stupid motherfucker, you thought you would last Well took the wrong path, now your name is in the past Another fuckin' lowlife connected to the first A crooked cop on the take, nothing could be worse Twenty one gun salute, the widow lays the wreath The whole police department covered up he was a thief Yeah the city's finest, caught in deepest shit Never tought the day would come, bang, a fuckin' hit You call yourself the finest in the city, huh! For scum like you,I have no fucking pity [Pre-chorus:] Pushing and scumming, disribute all your poison You call yourself a man, well you're nothing but a boy son A real man works hard, starves to climb the ropes Not killing for money, on the corner selling dope Money isn't everything, I guess it was to you Did you control your own life or greed controlled you For the lives that you destroyed, so morally depraved For the people you left grieving, I spit on your grave [Chorus:] So it seems, this is the system, and I'm sorry to say Dealers pay the cops to turn and look the other way On both sides of the law, justice has been done Not by a judge and jury but by the trigger of gun [Lead] Everybody scratches and tries to get ahead You took the easy way, it is easy being dead The chamber spins three, grab the trigger then you pull it The game is called roulette and you just won the bullet [Pre-chorus] [Chorus 2x] The chamber spins three

I question not me, it only happens to others I can't deny reality as life gets smothered If the lines can be read between Maybe you can tell me then what it all means Cause he who paints the big picture runs the whole scene Locked down, I gotta get it out Impending doom, a cloud above my head Why me? My faith has been devout Blasphemous? Am I better off dead? Pusishment, for all my sins A burning thought inside my mind Has me full of pity for all of human kind As we move forth, we fall further behind Fear of death, will my life go on? Controllled fate? On the corner rolling dice Punishment, but I've done nothing wrong In my eyes, who really pays the price My lament, for the human race Guilty, punishment for all my sins Dread the day that brings the truth Punishment for what I've done Sentence me for all my sins Bound in fear for what I've got Though not much it seems a lot Life is death and no one wins Bustin' my ass, another day another dollar, as I kneel down and I confress to the father that I'm suffering a burning question of the truth, wether or not to pull the trigger or to jump right off the roof, 'cause I did things normal and just like all my friends but now I'm positive and life it all ends Punishment, for all my sins, I repent In reality, we all must face the fact that the majority of the people are out there smoking crack, getting doped up, shooting that shit into their veins, the question must be asked if we have any brains left, or right or wrong in this son, a question we all ask and must answer before long, 'cause no one is safe in this world, what's the deal, the sentence is death and to what court do I appeal? Punishment, for all my sins, I repent Punishment

I make now a stand for belief that I'm steadfast In hating all of the bullshit you give me doubt my future, present and past Who are you to infringe your values upon me, I've learned the hard way Stepping on my toes, you've put my back to the wall, my back to the wall I've been told a thousand times to give respect when due Why do you find it so hard to believe I've got none for you It's my heart and my mind that I'll always follow, I will not break Nor will my balls, altough that I've seen that you've tried before Why are people fake? [Chorus:] Maybe you're older, wiser on your own right, it's your mistake I'm gonna do my own thing regardless, my choice to make I am real, in touch with my feelings, and I know my place You have shown, on the other hand, both sides of your face I see the world in a different light Things not always black and white Through all these years still, to this day My hardened eyes see only shades of grey I would never try and tell you what was right from wrong Maybe that's why you feel that I don't belong Always put me down for things I've said and done Can't you see it's a war that can't be won [Lead] A war that can't be won Living in your world seems so clear and concise Shutting out reality makes everything so nice Paint a pretty picture black and white everyday See my tattered canvass bleedign shades of grey [Chorus]

I sit and pick my brain each night With an axe in my hand held tight Bity my nose to spite my face Killing myself, I can't escape the rat race Wallowing in neck-deep misery Quicksand dissent, pressure free Deepest wounds are self inflicted Should I hope to be vincited Always alone, society's abortion Self mutilation, the daily partion Resentful past breeds hopeful future With tears of blood, I remove the sutures Dying inside, emotions they hide Irreperable damage from the tears that I've cried I climb from the sewer, the years that I have spent Self mutilation or my environment [Chorus 2x:] Tears of Blood, Tears of Blood I cry, I cry Tears of Blood, Tears of Blood I die Deny myself for fear of being Is it over now, has my heart stopped beating Lying here just self defeating My mind is empty, it won't stop bleeding Twisted anger screams my brain Over the edge, I hang in pain Mouth locked shut my mind won't swallow With tears of blood alone I wallow No one to blame except myself What you call masochism I call wealth Maybe its just a matter of pride Too sweet to end with suicide Peel the scub, pour salt in the wound Torturing myself, I'm forever doomed Looking east and west each and every moon A peaceful rest comes somebody soon No one to blame expect myself What you call masochism I call wealth Is death life and do we live in hell?

It looks like the system Tries to hold me down But guess what? I ain't fucking around You can't deny the pride That I have shown I grind hard and I must hold my own Coming from the gutter It's so hard to get ahead Taking no one's bullshit And working for my bread The future don't look positive The rat race holds me down What a struggle keeping Two feet on the ground Someday I'll have my peace of mind I'll keep fightin', one day I will find A decent life where self-respect is shown Until then I must hold my own Always under pressure I take things as they come Always looking up Look out for number one! My views got you in check I never back down I pack a hard punch And I always stand my ground I - will not back down Holding my own, I stand my ground You will not break me My belief is my way can't you see ?

Pain Chorus: Pain - feel my agony As it turns into my rage In life full of anguish Can't you see I live in Hell - becomes misery Metamorphasizing hate I contemplate my demise Can't you feel my pain ?
