Riots In Paradise

They're advancing upon your ranks
Kevlar vests and armored tanks
And if you don't stand up and fight
They will take you're life
And it hurts to see
From sea to shining sea
This country once so brave
But no longer free
Now is the time for change
Things can't remain the same
You aren't the ones to blame
So why are you in pain
It hurts to see
From sea to shining sea
This country once so brave
But no longer free
We won't go down
Without a fucking fight
Were taking back this town
Reclaiming our rights
Well put your face to the brick
This is how the end begins
In blood
It hurts to see
From sea to shining sea
This country once so brave
Not so fucking free
We won't go down
Without a fucking fight
Were taking back this goddamn town
Reclaiming our rights
Please stand with me
And open up your eyes
To corruption laid plain
Riots in paradise

Gift Of Nothing

You, you can see me, now
And this, this is the end of our relationship
I know that you thought that you could
Come back in my life but we are done
You thought I need you in my life
I think you've lost your fucking mind
This is the way that it's going to be
You've got nothing to offer me
And it's my life, I'm living it
There's no room for you're bullshit
NOW!
Don't come back, You're not welcome X2
This is the way that it's going to be
You've got nothing to offer me
And it's my life, I'm living it
There's no room for you're bullshit
You, you said to me
My son I have come to see
The man you've grown to be
I said stay the fuck away from me
You've got a lot of nerve
To come back after all these years
You shouldn't be knocking on my door
You're not my father anymore
Anymore X3
You've got nothing to offer me
And it's my life, I'm living it
There's no room for you're bullshit

King's Grave

This appears to be
More than a dream
This is a cult of Nations
And the red carpet has teeth
Devastation take hold
Ripping us apart
Nobody notices a thing
Why would you throw your life away
I see nothing's changed
You fuck with me
I'll put you in your grave
Is this suicide
Is this suicide we see
Why would you throw your life away
I see nothings changed
I see nothings changed
why would you throw your life away
Will you wake up
Will you wake me up from my grave
Is this more than a dream
Why would you throw your life away
I see nothings changed
I see nothings changed
Why would you throw your life, away
Why, why would you, why would you
Throw your life away

What will you do when the rivers run dry
What will you do when your fields all die
What will you do with your ill gotten gains
when the air you breathe makes your lungs bleed
Let go of your greed
and we can make a change
for the better of mankind
Help me start over with a breaking of new ground
We can plant a seed
Let it grow in the societal hive mind of soci-e-ty
This world has too much power for any man to control
Let go of your greed
and we can make a change
for the better of mankind
Help me start over with a breaking of new ground
We can plant a seed
Let it grow in the societal hive mind of soci-e-ty
Don't try to apply reason to the Earth
Don't try to apply reason to the Earth
Let go of your greed
and we can make a change
for the better of mankind
Help me start over with a breaking of new ground
We can plant a seed
Let it grow in the societal hive mind of soci-e-ty
(Let go of your greed)
We need to stand up and make a change
Plant this fucking seed, in your mind
Let it grow
In the absence of evidence the only question answerable
Who is responsible
for the crimes committed against the Earth
If we can work together we can try to heal her

Protest The Leaders
03:38

They say it's for the best
But we're falling into a constant state of unrest
Those meant to protect us all
Will be the cause of our greatest downfall
My serenity is broken
My freedom has been taken
Hunted down like a fugitive
For reasons that they wouldn't give
Look deep into my eyes
And recognize that I know your lies
You won't be satisfied until you've ruined all our lives
They say it's for the best
But we're falling into a constant state of unrest
Those meant to protect us all
Will be the cause of our greatest downfall
It's just a leaf they cannot keep me locked away I will not stay
Peaceful and quiet let's start a riot
Let's go all night and all fucking day
Shout it out loud and clear so they can hear
Less dangerous than cigs or beer
Let it grow in your mind that sweet seed
Let no free man fear the weed
I feel the world surround me
the world around me. Don't let go
I see you're searching purpose.
This life's a circus we're here to take control.
The truth inside your thoughts can only be free
if you put your guns down,
put your guns down
Deceptions are protections
I stand before you now.
Red and blue lights flash
See your life crashing
Down around you
Nowhere to run to
They will always find you

Abandon Your Friends
03:56

|

This is the end
You can not pretend
You are changing
(You are changing)
Into something that you don't understand
(Into something that you don't understand)
Just listen to me I will make it clear
(Just listen to me)
I know this isn't what you want to hear
Life, isn't, always what it, seems to be
believe me
I can't always promise, that it will be easy
It's hard to see
The answers won't
always be there
So take care, and look before you leap
The road is slippery
It will be easy to fall
I won't be there to catch you all
The time
(You are changing)
Into something that you don't understand
Just listen to me I will make it clear
I know this isn't what you want to hear
I can see the darkness forming from the fear inside
You cannot hide what you feel, You know it is real
Don't give in to it You can conquer it
You are strong, you don't have to, face this alone,
Just come home
You are changing
Into something that you don't understand
Just listen to me I will make it clear
I know this isn't what you want to hear

Such Is Life
04:10
|
|

I'm going against the grain
I hear them screaming
in-side my brain
to never let go
I'm giving up
I know I'm fucked
This has got to be
the end
for me
Just listen to us
we're here for you
There's nothing
that you can do
You know you're stuck
You will always be stuck with us
You will be stuck with us
Just remember, just remember, just remember
you will be stuck with us
You
You will always
Be here with me
You will be
here with me
Remember back to the time of happiness
never stepping away for a second
Never gave a reason
to let another in
Your heart is confused
and you look away
I know you haven't thought this out clear
I should say
I think the same
Now I know it's just to late
I know it isn't fine.
I know the voices make it seem alright.
Just give me some time
I can make it alright
I swear to you,
you'll be alright
I know it's such is life
I know it isn't fine.
I know the voices make it seem alright.
Just give me some time
I can make it alright
I swear to you,
you'll be alright
I know it's such is life
I know it isn't fine.
I know the voices make it seem alright.
Give me time
I can make it alright
I swear to you,
It'll be alright
(I swear to you)
It'll be alright!
Such is life

Masterpiece
03:33
|
|

Forget
the faces you recognize
when you
you walk into a room
you were already supposed to know
to disrupt or to find meaning
crosses the
invisible line
This is my,
this is my Masterpiece
Draw inspiration from me
Option is not a failure
opinion is a treasure
for what I find to be my artwork
I
could explain it to you
you would not understand
that I
hold you all in the palm of my hands
in the palm of my hands
in the palm of my hands
and just like a shifting sand
upon which I stand
I bulit a monument
and when the rain
washes away
and we see
what was always underneath
I fell for it,
I fell for it again
how can I
how can I use my hands?
This is my monemt to shine
I have driven out the architects of artifice
a loss of inspiration cost a godless artist all his false pretense
honest myths exhausted monolithic caustic structure
Destructive optimist
without conseqence
or a call to action
Fall into an optionless illusion
priceless exhibitions
you will find them
on display at the bottom of the ocean
furthest from the sunlight
When the war of art meets the art of war
those who remain are those chosen to claim
this is my Masterpiece
In order for me to call it mine
It must take all of me.

Greatest Tragedy
03:36
|
|
||
You dim your thoughts to the fact that you are still alive
What's it gonna cost us to filter through all those lies
Don't try to apply your force fed stale retribution
This is a downfall of your greatest contribution
This tradedy will be swift and sweet
Don't you tred on me
This surely is the end of me
Open up your fucking eyes
This isn't all you want to see
The truth will set us free
You'll be my greatest tragedy
We are all cogs, stuck in the machine
Slaves to the system, for the greater grand scheme
Open your eyes, and you will soon see
We are nothing, to the powers that be
Don't trust, what you see on TV
Force fed lies, for us all to eat
We need, to wake up
From this fucking no good American dream
So what we need to do is rebuild and rethink
everything before we start to repeat
Before you go away you just might wanna stay
and help me try to reteach
There's no control now.
You're left with nothing but the pain in your heart
and it will always be forever.
I reach my hands out
and grab for reasons but the meaning is lost,
all meaning is lost.
Pull yourself out, of this fallacy
You will see that, you're living in a dream
Your mind, has been conquered
But hope is not lost, if we take a stand
Get up, get on your feet
Make your moves, make your dreams reality
Break free, of the system
Become your own person again
Don't you tred on me
This surely is the end of me
Open up your fucking eyes
This isn't all you want to see
The truth will set us free
You'll be my greatest tragedy
(You will be the one, the one who brings us down)

Overlook Road
03:50

I've learned a lot on this road so far.
I've built it up just to watch it fall.
And even when life is oh so cruel,
I'm right at home just to be with you.
But even when the brightest lights are darkest as the night.
you think about me when you close your eyes I'm right in sight.
My home is right here deep inside of each and all of you.
A special place to find escape reshape the world you knew.
My overlook road
Oh my overlook road
I open my eyes and I see this nightmare
Wide awake but I am filled with fear
Inside my dreams I can hear your screams
And it kills me to know that they were caused by me
I get into my car, hoping to get away
I think about it every second of every day
I cannot stay here where I always feel so alone
I need to find a place, a place to call my home
Can't you help me see the right pth to take
All my life I've been looking for escape
I'll never take it for granted.
Where I can lay my head at.
Overlook your problems and see it's right in front of you.
No matter where you go
changes, highs and low you know
a thought of you can make me feel right at home
Help me find home
A place to call my own
Where I don't feel alone
