In the maze of chaos, where truth and lies collide A soul marches to the beat of dissent, nowhere to hide The gate to nowhere looms, a monument to despair A testament of doom, in the air that we share A curse upon these lands, a line we just crossed And in void we trust Through the ashes of our sins, we seek a sliver of redemption But the fire within dims, lost in the frustration Throwing garbage to the winds, the rivers answer with extension Humanity has failed, in spite of all revelation Under the weight of the world, our knees buckle and bend In the silence, our cries are hurled, into the abyss we descend A line we just crossed And in dust we rust Rust Through the ashes of our sins, we seek a sliver of redemption But the fire within dims, lost in the frustration Throwing garbage to the winds, the rivers answer with extension Humanity has failed, in spite of all revelation The gate to nowhere looms, a monument to despair A testament of doom, in the air that we share Through the ashes of our sins, we seek a sliver of redemption But the fire within dims, lost in the frustration Throwing garbage to the winds, the rivers answer with extension Humanity has failed, in spite of all revelation

I’m trying to do my best To set my dreams astray But more than that I wish i knew what i wanna say Oh, I was feeding the monsters Knowing well what I did There were so many options Growing up, yet I skipped I’m still focussing on things That are out of my reach And it's weird being the same Age as old people that preach But i was Trying to do my best To set my dreams astray But more than that I wish i knew what i wanna say I’m sticking in my own past Pretend that i’m o-kay But obviously I’m wasting my precious days away 5-0 on the papers, 27 at heart (heart) Hanging out on the lawn was a ritual Having drinks, talking deep, playing basketball Making memories that stay, unforgettable Somе of us already gone, it’s unbeliеvable Those were the days, no doubt But there’s more to see and feel, more to be grateful about Can’t go back but we can write new stories and wrap em Live in the now and make things happen Making peace with my demons! Cause I am sicker than they’ve ever been Making peace with my demons! Cause it’s now or never It’s sink or swim It’s sink or swim now IT’S SINK OR SWIM SINK, SWIM SINK OR SWIM I’m trying to do my best To set my dreams astray But more than that I wish i knew what i wanna say I’m sticking in my own past Pretend that i’m o-kay But obviously I’m wasting my precious days away IT’S SINK OR SWIM SINK OR SWIM

Please remember the fun we had Not my grumpy face and not Not the wrinkles and the tones i missed Not the gray hair Not my fat belly, mistakes I made Not the doubts that I had Oh remember I loved to spend time with you You meant the world to me And you still do There’s no distance Only the one we invent Guess what It was not the drinks we had Not the money we lend It was the time that we spent Together, that is meant To live forever. In our hearts we have A million memories That are worth more than the calories That recharged our batteries I’m so glad we had all these It was not the beers we had It was the time we spent together It was the smiles, laughter and hugs when we said good night It was the dreams we shared and tried to put in words Or even songs It was the beats tickling on our tongues Just one wish Just one wish I would like to ask you to visit my grave Wherever that be Sit down and smile maybe I would like to ask you to visit my grave You don’t have to shed a tear Just think of me every other year Every other, other year maybe And if you can’t, light a candle. That’s okay Watch those beautiful curves the flames create And how the shadows play Make a wish when you look into the sky And watch the clouds pass by When you feel the wind blowing through your hair That’s where I’m at That’s where I’ll be Guess where i’m at That’s where i’ll be

Does it feel like coming Home after they’re gone? It was last november That is if i’m not wrong They make you feel like you’re not alright Alright, like you’re something worth less And you can’t escape this fight, _ this fight (I’m) probably missing something but i cannot get it straight For this does not make any sense, it’s just pure hate Can you feel safe in this place right here? I don’t know, i don’t know, i don’t know They promised you a new start, a new career But instead you live in constant fear There’s that guy at the other sidе of the street He’s on the porch yеlling swelling Hey, is it hatred or envy? You’re doing your best to gain and achieve He’s not able to see and conceive His fascist friends are his fam’ly Take some action now Resists and unbound Make use of your voice Does it feel like coming Home after they’re gone? It was last november That is if i’m not wrong DOES IT FEEL LIKE A CHANGE A NEW ERA OR IS IT JUST THE SAME OLD SICK TERROR SAME OLD TERROR How can we feel safe in this world right here? I don’t know (3x) They promised us a new start, a new career But instead we live in constant fear There are millions of us in the streets Supporting what minority needs Look what a colorful unity Yet, there’s more to be done and told While their secrets and plans unfold We must stand guard for truth and democracy Take some action now Resist and unbound Make use of your voice Pushback Resist and unbound For love and respect For tolerance and unity Cause we’re all the same We’re all the same All the same Irrelevant parts of the game We’re all the same

We have come here together to mourn the loss of And say farewell to our beloved friend You’re not here, but your presence lingers in the shadows Your words like daggers Sling through the air, you know? Smiles and hugs at the final show Met some with indifference, their soul left to bare Betrayed by their own stare, (own stare) Buried beneath thе trees This apathy, unforgiving grief In this graveyard of darkness, thеre You’re left to brood, neglected care Now your last beat Has been played Can’t believe this is not a bad joke We’re gonna wait for ya Why did you leave it all up to yourself? We would have been there for you Now saying prayers and lighting up candles Is the only thing that we can do Once revered, your golden mind roared with might, (roared with might) Now a haunting whisper in the dead of night Ignored and unnoticed (unnoticed), your spirit’s been betrayed, no, No solace in the silence Silence weighing heavy like dismay, eternal dismay Now that we just lost a friend Life is not the same again Not the same without you man I know we will meet again Oh, Moss upon the tombstone, where memories decay Once cherished and adored, now fading away. (aaaaah) Moss upon the tombstone Say will we meet again? Scratch the moss from your epitaph, I feel like we are close Close again Your words like daggers Your sharp mind, we had to let it go Smiles and hugs at the final show Met some with indifference, their soul left to bare Betrayed by their own stare, (own stare) Buried beneath the trees This apathy, unforgiven grief In this graveyard of darkness there, you’re left Now your last beat Has been played Can’t believe this is not a bad joke We’re gonna wait for ya Why did you leave it all up to yourself?

In the full moon’s dark delight, a tale of dread Where fear and anxiety, in silence spread Under Lunas rigid eye, your silhouette Without hand-gloves, a brainless act A saw whispers secrets, a knife confirms And with black gaffer, it all returns… Fear grips tight with every step Substance eats away what is trapped Trapped, trapped, trapped As you awake to the scene It’s not a bad dream It glows in your eyes Like firеflies You wanna see the world burn Should be our concеrn But we’re too surprised By your alibis Bones won't mend, no peace o’ mind Errors etched in the sands of time With trembling hands, the tape is torn A futile fix for a soul so worn, now Pa-nic ri-ses, conscience screams You can’t escape … Fragments of a life once whole Buried deep in memories cold And as you face what you've done There's nowhere to run The darkness inside No, you cannot hide You try to piece it all back There's no double-check The damage is done There’s nowhere to run Run from the darkness Run, run from the cold Ain’t no way to fix it motherfucka You’re ___ sold, uh As you awake to the scene (neu) It’s not a bad dream It glows in your eyes But we’re too surprised But we’re too surprised Sold to the dark side You traded with the beast You’re in it’s hands now, damned forever at least See, duct tape won’t settle anything This abuse keeps you hanging from a string Marionette, will you regret, well it doesn’t make a difference, no It’s too late to let go…

When you first went to school You were in good spirits Didn’t take long until you start’(ed) to fear it Being bullied on your way home, first grader Aggression grows inside Until you burst a little later Despite the secrets that you kept You either join or you’re fucking stabbed Hey parents, happy with your job? You said the kids are fine No they're not No friends, No love Nobody to talk to And your brother shows you how to fight Loose ends, Closed doors And the shit that you walk through Turnoff to happiness is out of sight Depressivе at the age of 6 Imitating what you see Trying to get your fix Thе struggle is real Cause you just don't wanna be like them You feel unseen Don't wanna be like them Just don't wanna be like them Don't wanna be like them Just don't wanna be like them You’re not the only one having a hard time Growing up, with mother and father not showing up There’s that boy whose talents are still ignored Wishing for clothes that he cannot afford, no His mama’s beaten every other day He hides inside his room, covers up and plays GTA The knife in his drawer is close And you still think our kids are okay?
