In the Beginning

You can't let your circumstances Define who you are 'Cause only death is certain Everything else optional Your happiness depends on No one else but you 'Cause no one else can live you life Or fill your grave but you No one's victim No one's victim Won't be a victim You can't let your circumstances Define who you are 'Cause only death is certain Everything else optional Your happiness depends on No one else but you 'Cause no one else can live your life Or fill your grave but you No one's victim, won't be a victim No one's victim, won't be a victim

When you have stripped of all hope Humiliated, beaten, betrayed Your pride and honor have been crushed But still you fight on Then you'll know your true strength Wisdom, knowledge, steadiness While others crumble, stumble and fall You stand strong and you carry on That's why you know that you'll win in the end There were times I was down in the streets There were times I was stealing to eat There were times I was strung out on drugs I felt alone and had nowhere to go These are the times that you have to push through You have to focus on what you must do 'Cause no one is coming to help These are the times you must do it yourself No one's coming, you've got do it yourself No one's coming, you've got do it yourself You won't know what you have lost Until you've had to fight your way back When you're in that dark place and there is no light You gotta dig deep, stand strong and fight The future's unwritten, the past is gone No time for crying, it's time to move on 'Cause sometimes no one is coming to help These are the times you must do it yourself No one's coming, you've got do it yourself No one's coming, you've got do it yourself No one's coming, you've got do it yourself No one's coming, you've got do it yourself No one's coming, you are on your own No one's coming, dig deep and fight on No one's coming, you are on your own No one's coming, dig deep and fight on

Between wars I find no peace My memories, they still haunt me Can't sleep at night, I feel rage and guilt My conscience, it eats me for the blood I've spilled I have seen violence I can't forget I have done things that I regret I see and I realize the cause But that don't rid me of my guilt or remorse There is no way that I can express These feelings of self-hate and regret I know I can't undo the things that I've done But at least now I know that I have a conscience

There is a time A time to hold on A time to let go These are the things That we must learn That we have to know Is the meaning of life Is it just a test To find peace of mind Living with love Love in your heart Free of remorse Knowing how to love And how to let go To free your mind To free your soul And as you near Your time of death You will find peace As you draw your last breath

One wrong decision could end your life One wrong decision could undo your life One bad decision could destroy your life One bad decision could take others' lives Think about what you say Think about what you do Situations can go bad fast Your hopes and dreams gone in a flash Just how long did you think it would last Look to the future, don't live in the past Think about what you say Think about what you do Everyone makes mistakes, sometimes Some won't go away Emotional decisions Ruin lives every day

The next time someone looks at you Like they got something to say The next time someone bumps into you Instead of getting out of your way The next time someone starts taking shit And you wanna punch them in the motherfuckin' face I want you to think about one thing Do you wanna be explaining to a cop Why you punched this motherfucker in his throat Why you threw his friend in front of the fuckin' a train Do you wanna be sitting in a cell thinking about Why the fuck did i do that, why couldn't i just Let that motherfucker live Where do you want to be - in two hours Where do you want to be - in two hours Where do you want to be - in two hours Where do you want to be - in two hours Man I remember sitting in a motherfuckin cell thinking to myself, what the fuck man What the fuck did I do Why did I fucking put myself here None of these motherfuckers are worth it The only thing that matters is your life Don't fucking throw it away Don't let some motherfucker drag you into a situation That will fuck your life up Man don't motherfuckin' get me started, don't make me Go medieval on your motherfuckin' ass Don't push me cause I'm close to the edge I'm trying not to fuck your ass up Don't push me cause I'm close to the edge I'm trying not to fuck your ass up Sometimes it really makes me wonder How I keep from fucking your motherfucking ass up Sometimes it really makes me wonder How I keep from fucking your motherfucking ass up

There's no turning back There's no turning back There's no turning back There's no turning back Breathe in strength Breathe out pain Breathe in love Breathe out fear Breathe in power Breathe out doubt Breathe in courage Don't look back When the past is gone Make your destiny Your life is what's at stake There's no turning back Breathe in peace Breathe out self doubt Breathe in confidence Breathe out false needs When the past is gone Make your destiny Your life is what's at stake There's no turning back There's no turning back There's no turning back There's no turning back

So much can happen In so little time You can lose all your friends And come so close to dying You can be betrayed And then be redeemed You can lose those you love And lose what you believe There was a time That I believed And there was a time That I was deceived And there was a time I was broken inside And there was a time I was living to die So much can happen In so little time You can lose all your friends And come so close to dying You can be betrayed And then be redeemed You can lose those you love And lose what you believe
