True View

"You just figure it out your way. You just figure it out your own way, because in the end no matter which way or direction this goes, you're the only person that can do it." I’ve gone to hell and back Searching for answers That do not exist I tore everything apart Needing a reason For feeling like this It left me with nothing But this hole in my chest So I looked inside to see what I’d find The true journey begins "I have every bit of faith and confidence that you're gonna find your peace." Don’t hide the truth inside of you From anyone 'Cause I just can’t be what they want me to be Can anyone? I made a promise to myself that I intend to keep I made a promise that I will no longer (No longer) Live three feet from peace

You’ve heard it all before “This time won’t be the same, you can trust me” But you know my fucking game Say what I have to, to get what I need Now the evil delivered swings back at me Weak attempts at change Carry me backward Too little, too late Now live with the hurt For everything I have an excuse But some things are not long hidden: The sun, the moon, the truth Now I live with the hurt Live with the hurt This is what I deserve Break me down The only way I’ll learn The guilt is overwhelming Take me out, the pain of me returns My sins fucking destroy me I am forced to face the fire I create And watch as it annihilates everything Hold me back while I watch it burn The price I pay, the suffering returns Now the hands of fate are here to collect Nothing here is safe until I reflect I run from myself, no end in sight Numb on the inside from living a lie Now I watch as it burns Watch as it burns This is what I deserve Break me down The only way I’ll learn The guilt is overwhelming Take me out, the pain of me returns My sins fucking destroy me You can shelter yourself from the sun And you can hide from the moon But there is nothing you can do When the truth strikes its light on you Now I must live with the hurt Now I must live with the hurt The pain of me returns The pain of me returns The pain of me returns Now I must live with the hurt

I found a place to belong So I went all in I walked right in the mouth of it And never looked back again The only thing that remains Through the loss and the pain As for me, there was no other choice I’m married to the noise We’ve been pushed to the side While the fake walk the line I've seen it all my life You praise what is weak and keep carrying on You cannot kill my will to belong What's inside me still pushes on I don’t care if you can’t see what I see I’m still here (Oh, oh) No, I don't care I never needed a reason Yeah, I'm still here (Oh, oh) Through and through This has always been my truth And it can’t be killed So I won’t let you crush what we built Lost on you Somewhere along the line you forgot What this meant to all of us And I’ve had enough I don’t care if you can’t see what I see I’m still here (Oh, oh) No, I don't care I never needed a reason Yeah, I'm still here (Oh, oh) So keep rolling your eyes I’d rather be dead than settle with your way of life So I don't care what you think about me Yeah, I'm still here (Oh, oh) Through the loss and the pain The only thing that remains And I was finally heard through the pain of my voice As for me there was no other choice I don’t care if you can’t see what I see I’m still here (Oh, oh) No, I don't care I never needed a reason Yeah, I'm still here (Oh, oh) So keep rolling your eyes I’d rather be dead than settle with your way of life So I don't care what you think about me Yeah, I'm still here (Oh, oh) The only thing that remains Through the loss and the pain As for me, there was no other choice I’m married to the noise

I left scars on your heart Like the cracks in the concrete You know I feel them too (You know I feel them too) Since the day that I left I punish myself Hoping to find some truth But you have to believe I just didn’t know what else to do And now the life that I left is leaving me too Set free You stood by me when no when else would Set free Trusted my vision when I didn’t think that I could Set free You tried desperately to keep my head above water For the sake of us But somewhere along the line I lost track of who I was I just got so tired of pulling you under Under with me And now that I lost you, I lost everything Set free You stood by me when no when else would Set free Trusted my vision when I didn’t think that I could Not a day goes by that I don’t think of you Set free How can I live with myself and what I put you through? This is not an apology Or an admission of guilt This is a realization of how I destroyed All the things we’ve built Set free You stood by me when no when else would Set free Trusted my vision when I didn’t think that I could Not a day goes by that I don’t think of you Set free How can I live with myself and what I put you through? Set free

When opening the gates of hell still isn’t enough What else will it take? Will we not stop until all is destroyed? Is losing everything the only way this will change? And I ask myself: is this the final warning? And when it all opens up and starts devouring us I hope we see the truth, that it was me and you And when it all falls apart, I hope we see who we are We can’t hide in the wake of this, so you better beware You may have your reasons But that doesn’t make them right The state of humanity faces a truth With no cure in sight One hand out-stretched, desperately reaching To pull us from death And the other gripping the trigger A bullet aimed right at its head And still I ask myself: is this the final warning? And when it all opens up and starts devouring us I hope we see the truth, that it was me and you And when it all falls apart, I hope we see who we are We can’t hide in the wake of this, we can't hide And when it all opens up and starts devouring us I hope we see the truth, that it was me and you And when it all falls apart, I hope we see who we are We can’t hide in the wake of this, so you better beware This is the last and final warning It’s fucking tearing us down This is the last and final warning I hope you hear us now Cave Canem Cave Canem This is the last and final warning Cave Canem This is the last and final warning I hope you hear us now

Stay and keep me up Stay and keep me up And I’ll try not to drift away But it’s on the days I don’t pick up That I can’t find the words or answers that you need to hear from me I knew we’d sink, but I still jumped in So if you’re going under, don’t let me go Let’s just drown inside the things we love the most And you can say what you want, and that's okay But we found the reasons that we needed to walk away We needed to walk away And we knew that even if it killed us, we'd still let it pull us in Yeah, we carried more, more than we could take Hoping that somewhere along the line it would all fall into place 'Cause in the end you can’t stop the wind So if you’re going under, don’t let me go Let’s just drown inside the things we love the most And you can say what you want, and that's okay But we found the reasons that we needed to walk away I knew we’d sink But for some reason I still jumped in 'Cause in the end After everything we did, you can’t stop the wind So if you’re going under, don’t let me go Let’s just drown inside the things we love the most And you can say what you want, and that's okay But we found the reasons that we needed to walk away Even if we found a way, it would never be the same

I pass the time with tediousness Watching my life pass hour by hour These destructive patterns of life Set my mind spiraling downward Will I allow what is expected of me to dull The sharp edge of my life? Or will I take into my hands The use of my time? This is not what was meant for me A weak existence of shallow priority This is not what was meant for me So I quiet my mind to hear the inner authority No more resistance Destroy the dominant power of fear Control my existence When I’m listening the answers are clear I am what I seek I now understand So from here on out I will not seek what I am I will not seek what I am

"Right here, right now, you are free." Destroy the voices that cripple me I realize I’m in everything Can't change the past, but what I hold in my hands Is the light of myself, I finally understand Death to oppression on every level For my life I will never settle Far too long I sabotaged myself To believe that what sets me free is up to someone else You have to decide Will you consume or block out the light? Your mind, the anchor or the way which you see You just have to believe You are free No matter what they do or what they say Believe, you are free The true power of you can’t be taken away Believe, you are free Inward and out, you are free Destroy the doubt, you are free No matter what they say The true power of you can’t be taken away Never forget What is, doesn’t have to be No matter what they do or what they say Believe, you are free The true power of you can’t be taken away Believe, you are free Inward and out, you are free Destroy the doubt, you are free No matter what they say The true power of you can’t be taken away You have to decide (You have to decide) You have to decide (You have to decide) You have to decide (You have to decide)

I’ve lost so much sleep Mistaking your voice in my ear For the voice in my head Your guilt stacked against me Convinced that I’d bend I just rolled over and prayed for the end What chance do I have when you expect me to fail Before I even begin? Your expectations can't take me out I'm done betting against myself I won’t be I won’t be doomed by you I won’t be No, I won't be doomed You had me caught in a tide of self-doubt Swimming against your current, but I won’t fucking drown (Won't fucking drown) I can see you for what you’ve become So don’t wonder why you’re left with no one What chance do I have when you expect me to fail Before I even begin? Your narrow predictions won't take me down I'm done betting against myself I won’t be I won’t be doomed by you I won’t be No, I won't be doomed You made me believe that this was about me When the truth is, you fucking coward You don’t have what it takes No, you don’t have what it takes You don’t have what it takes No, you don’t have what it takes

I’m a firm believer in letting the past be the past But sometimes you have to go back You have to go back To remind ourselves of the things we lost The weight we shed The lessons learned and how much they've cost As for me, I realize this life is not guaranteed And we are not promised the things that we need But this life always has a way To force you to face yourself And I’ve avoided it for way too long As for me, I realize this life is not guaranteed And we are not promised the things that we need Wasted days are suicide If you’re not satisfied You have no one to blame but yourself There was a time When I did things just to do them When I let my heart lead me to the lions There was a time When I saw the value in uncertainty And there was no difference between you and me There was a time When everything didn’t seem so out of place There was a time When we said, "fuck them all" and just walked their fucking race There was a time When we just laughed at everything and everyone There was a time Where is the time? I’m going back to find the better days before me I’m going back to find the better days before me I’m going back to find the better days before me There was a time Now is the time And I'm fucking going back I'm going back I'm going back to find the better days before me

I am an accident in a game of chance So I’ll use my numbered days any way I can I realize I was never meant to be I am owed nothing I have spent too much time feeling sorry for myself Playing victim, thinking of nobody else Giving nothing, but expecting something in return Always running from the lessons I’m supposed to learn I learned the hard way It’s just here for a second, then it all goes back I'm missing something The hope that we carry is all we have I won’t live in fear That at any moment it can all just disappear I learned the hard way We’re just here for a second, then we all go back I am owed nothing Every second of our lives is on borrowed time So use it now, 'cause you won’t get a second try Everything you’ve ever loved won’t last And anything that we use is paid back I learned the hard way It’s just here for a second, then it all goes back I'm missing something The hope that we carry is all we have I won’t live in fear That at any moment it can all just disappear I learned the hard way We’re just here for a second, then we all go back In the end what we refuse to let go all becomes nothing Move What we refuse to let go all becomes nothing What we refuse to let go all becomes nothing It's time we realized we were never meant to be We are owed nothing I learned the hard way It’s just here for a second, then it all goes back I'm missing something The hope that we carry is all we have I won’t live in fear That at any moment it can all just disappear I learned the hard way We’re just here for a second, then we all go back

"We gotta get rid of these fuckin' money-hungry, greedy people. Me, I'm sad. I cry. You know, this is my...my company, and when I die, I'm going to go back to this place. Why can't you just respect my Grandmother, you know? Respect my...my ways, you know? Your ways don't work. It's never gonna work because you got the money in front of you. You killed your god. How can I believe in somebody that killed their own god, and now here to destroy us?" I did not ask for any of this But that doesn’t mean That the sins of my father and what he passed down Do not belong to me A foundation of shit upon which we salute Blinded by greed But the higher it builds, worse gets the view Have we learned nothing, nothing at all? Can not the prisoner dream To one day be free? Can not the child plagued with disease Hope to end their suffering? Can not the mother who buries her son Wish to see him again? It echoed in me when you said: "There is no point, this is the world we live in" "There is no point, this is the world we live in" "There is no point, this is the world we live in"

I know the things I've done And most I'm proud, but some I'm not And it's those that speak the loudest That replay and keep me up Broken and alone To face this on my own And if I can't learn from what I've done The pain I've felt has been for nothing All for nothing And if I can't forgive myself for the pain I've caused It will always haunt me Oh, I'm so sorry I'm so sorry I don't want a second chance I just want to understand What led me down this path, oh And how I can lead myself back I'll face this on my own And if I can't learn from what I've done The pain I've felt has been for nothing All for nothing And if I can't forgive myself for the pain I've caused It will always haunt me Oh, I'm so sorry I'm so sorry (Oh) I'm so sorry (Oh) I'm so sorry (Oh) I'm so sorry (Oh) I'm so sorry (Oh) And if I can't learn from what I've done The pain I've felt has been for nothing All for nothing And if I can't forgive myself for the pain I've caused It will always haunt me I'm so sorry
