Sick of feeling right and feeling wrong I've been in this place way too long I've been down and I've been strong Now what the hell is going on? It's getting harder but I know I'll make it And there's no code in my DNA to front or fake it I got these clouds hovering and hanging And the darkness consumes me How long will I Stand and fight? God knows that I paid the price of a thousand lifetimes My soul, my blood Ain't that enough? God knows that I paid the price of a thousand lifetimes I must confess I break from the stress I tell my story, get it off my chest Green light 'til I get it right Ain't no stopping 'til I save my life Harder to breathe, it's getting harder to see A future in front of me Suffocated and vindicated, never a minute Goes by that's justified How long will I Stand and fight? God knows that I paid the price of a thousand lifetimes My soul, my blood Ain't that enough? God knows that I paid the price of a thousand lifetimes Give it my all Even when I fall Back against the wall When push comes to shove then I'm not giving up, no, no Dedicated to the overworked Who put everything on the line for those they love until it hurts Kept your head up when it got tough Kept faith and love when the roads dem get rough A thousand lives couldn't pay for The strength you gave or the energy you gave up I haven't prayed in years But I know you're there somewhere How long will I Stand and fight? God knows that I paid the price of a thousand lifetimes My soul, my blood Ain't that enough? God knows that I paid the price of a thousand lifetimes Oh yeah, a thousand lifetimes I paid the price of a thousand lifetimes

Praise around success It’s another dazzling lifestyle of origin later Now everybody wanna shine Everybody wanna see their name up in the lights Everybody wanna live all high in the sky They don’t want a piece, they want a whole fucking pie They don’t want to work or even try They stuck in the mud They life ain’t got no traction Can’t think for themselves so they follow fashion Like and repeats for the reaction Full of bare chat but no full of action I feel like I’m losing my mind I feel like I’m Losing all control Diseasе Losing my grip on reality Am I wasting my breath To find that I’m left bеhind? It’s a double-edged sword when the blind leads the blind They want the diamonds They want the highlights Talk all their best shit Can’t get their mind right They flex like they’re this They flex like they’re that They overreact cause they can’t relaxa They stuck in the mud They life ain’t got no traction Can’t think for themselves so they follow fashion Like and repeats for the reaction Full of bare chat and but no full of action I feel like I’m losing my mind I feel like I’m Losing all control Disease Losing my grip on reality Am I wasting my breath To find that I’m left behind? It’s a double-edged sword when the blind leads the blind Can we just learn to live again? Can we just learn to live again? My mind’s in a different direction Need to change my trajection It’s OK that I’m still Losing all control Disease Losing my grip on reality Am I wasting my breath To find that I’m left behind? It’s a double-edged sword when the blind leads the blind

Can we not do all this tonight? 'Nuff on mind, not trying to fight Let’s take our time Rage is blind We tend to take this all too far Turn deeper wounds to deeper scars Words have power over life The hurt can bring us to our knees Love is dangerous It’s hope that kills Can we even trust The world that’s standing still? Even when we’re lost And can’t be saved How much can we take? The risk is worth the pain Love is dangerous I’ve seen love lost I’ve been broken I’ve seen closed hearts Finally open And no need to Speak out of spite I’ve seen trauma I’ve seen rage And I’ve been healed from the agony And each scar is a story to tell Love is dangerous It’s hope that kills Can we even trust The world that’s standing still? Even when we’re lost And can’t be saved How much can we take? The risk is worth the pain Love is dangerous The damage is hard to deny You see it deep in my eyes Don’t you dare walk away 'Cause it’s not too late With my last breath I’ll say The damage is hard to deny You see it deep in my eyes Love Love is dangerous It’s hope that kills Can we even trust The world that’s standing still? Love is dangerous It’s hope that kills Can we even trust The world that’s standing still? Even when we’re lost And can’t be saved How much can we take? The risk is worth the pain Love is dangerous

'Cause I’m back to life Wake up the dead inside And learn to live in a world so cold Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh World so co-oh-oh-oh-oh-old All my life I was told to step up to the plate All my life I was sold, no way to educate It was like the goal Was to watch me drown and suffocate And watch the light Inside my eyes fade away For years I lived Just like a ghost The shadow of a man That I used to know Feeling heartless and lifeless There’s no tomorrow Feeling careless and soulless I need to let go 'Cause I’m back to life Wake up the dead inside 'Cause I’m ready to live I see it clear, won’t live in fear Learn to live in a world so cold Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh World so co-oh-oh-oh-oh-old What you know about them dark nights? Waking up, cold sweats Seein’ devils in the low light What you know about my life? What you know about the choice That depends on gun or knife? See it through my lens Death always on the brain And pain that never ends Sick of living on the edge I’ve seen the faces of the dead And I’m following where they lead For years I lived Just like a ghost The shadow of a man That I used to know Feeling heartless and lifeless There’s no tomorrow Feeling careless and soulless I need to let go 'Cause I’m back to life Wake up the dead inside 'Cause I’m ready to live I see it clear, won’t live in fear Learn to live in a world so cold Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh World so co-oh-oh-oh-oh-old World so co-oh-oh-oh-oh-old World so co-oh-oh-oh-oh-old Watch as my spirit comes alive The strength inside won’t be denied From the darkness I rise I know I will survive 'Cause I’m back to life Wake up the dead inside 'Cause I’m ready to live I see it clear, won’t live in fear Learn to live in a world so cold Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh World so co-oh-oh-oh-oh-old (Yeah, I’m still alive) World so co-oh-oh-oh-oh-old (Oh yeah) World so co-oh-oh-oh-oh-old

I don’t feel quite that normal Life has been a bit strange Like I forgot my face Like I forgot my name Feel like we lost all grace Something different about this place All hope abandoned Left without a trace Feel like my body’s a shadow An angel brought so low I got no path to follow Soul of the Earth hollow Still caught up in the rat race Nothing changes in this place All hope abandoned Left without a trace Open mouth but they make no sound Begging to be free So let go And just breathe Live again And be free So let go And just breathe Live again And be free Just be free They’re calling this the new normal On a high but still so low There’s something so wrong I know The truth so hard to swallow On a high living in disgrace Feeling different about this place All hope abandoned Left without a trace Open mouth but they make no sound Begging to be free So let go And just breathe Live again And be free So let go And just breathe Live again And be free Just be free Oh, yeah! Oh, ya! Oh, yeah! Well oh yeah! Let it go Let it go Let it go Let it go-o Let 'em go Let 'em go Let 'em go So let go And just breathe Live again And be free So let go And just breathe Live again And be free Just be free Just be free Just be-e-e-e-e-e free-e-e-e-e-e, yeah

Life is a bitch and she ain't forgiving (Never) You 'bout to sleep in that grave you digging But you still trust Babylon Went from tell-lie-vision To tell-lie-phone More connected than ever but still alone Only tunnel vision and mindless drones A couple rats in a maze fighting for the crumbs Living double lives Can't recognize Who we are anymore Sleepwalking Sleeping awake 'Cause you don't know who you are anymore One life to live and you want to live it Head in the sand, is that really living?

(Is it?) Receiving nothing from what you're giving But you still trust Babylon Breaking your back on the wheel that's driven (How?) Life is a bitch and she ain't forgiving (Never) You 'bout to sleep in that grave you digging But you still trust Babylon (Free from the system) (Free from the system) (Free from the system) (Free from the system) Oh… When I open my eyes everyday I think about how I can break away Sick of my wasted life Sick of my wasted life Sick of wasting life Sick of wasting my life Sick of wasting my life I’m sick of this wasted life Sick of this wasted life Sick of this wasted life Sick of this wasted life So… One life to live and you want to live it Head in the sand, is that really living? Receiving nothing from what you're giving But you still trust Babylon (Hey!) Breaking your back on the wheel that's driven Life is a bitch and she ain't forgiving You 'bout to sleep in that grave you digging But you still trust Babylon Wake up, wake up

Collapse You’re breaking down Falling right down on your knees Collapse You’re breaking down C’mon, think about it How many times have you encountered The end of your rope When your vision is blurred Your mind is fucked and cloudy You take the poison You put it right back in the body Infect the bloodstream You feeling all rowdy Your pupils widen looking for clarity Back on that parity You’re leveling out Your life’s a joke, you’ve become a parody A caricature of a life you think live That ain’t me Needing that fix You alter your state and now you’re collapsing Down, down Collapse You’re breaking down Falling right down on your knees Collapsе You’re breaking down You’re feeling so wеak Collapse You’re breaking down Pull yourself up and realize No one is coming to save you So save your-self Collapse (Collapse) to relapse (there’s nobody there) Breaking down, you’re on the ground again (Oh, yeah) You collapse (Collapse) to relapse (To relapse) Praying for salvation Ain’t nobody 'bout to save you now From the collapse, the relapse or break down You put yourself in that hell So it’s on you to pull up and break out Ain’t nobody 'bout to save you now They’re watching you crash, burn and drown (I’m drowning, no) Down, down Collapse You’re breaking down Falling right down on your knees Collapse You’re breaking down You’re feeling so weak Collapse You’re breaking down Pull yourself up and realize No one is coming to save you Ain’t nobody 'bout to save you now From the collapse, the relapse or breakdown Ain’t nobody 'bout to save you now From the collapse, the relapse or breakdown They’ll watch you suffer and drown Collapse You’re breaking down Falling right down on your knees Collapse You’re breaking down You’re feeling so weak Collapse You’re breaking down Pull yourself up and realize No one is coming to save you And realize No one is coming to save you So save your-self No worry, never-ever again No worry, never-ever again No worry, never-ever again
