Raging Bull 01:27
Mean what you say and say what you mean Now you've got me tripping on thee strings Strings that tug at my every nerve Controlling my actions and my words Cause' when the raging bull's got you it's got ahold of your head Can't fucking see straight when all you see is red Past pains still sink their teeth into me But I can't let these scars decide how I'm gonna be The things you do burn me like a fuse But I refuse to be dragged down by you Won't let your bullshit get to my head You know all I need some kind of escape To get my mind off all these fucking things I'm no ones puppet you can watch me cut these strings Letting go of past mistakes Leave behind the wasted rage With new hope (for better days)

Fools Gold 02:01
Your eyes have been monopolized Your ears bought and sold You ate shit and now it's set your standards When will all of this grow old? Can't reward greed with my respect I'm sorry but I'm just not fucking impressed Decked in excess but what does it provide? Boasted and gift wrapped with nothing inside You'll never grow content with such an absent mind Maybe if you could just get over your fake ass pride You might finally find the eyes to see How much of you is in shit that you don't need Ugly girl with a pretty face Knowing nothing but how to manipulate You may think you glow like a shining star But I can always see you and your kind for what you truly are Can't put a fucking price on my head You will never put a (price on my head) The things you own, have robbed you blind But you will never put a price on my head You will never put a price on my head When all your gold is fools gold

Can't we put our differences aside When different minds can still see eye to eye Cause' in the end we're all full of shit Nobody's perfect, unless you're living a fucking lie I just can't fucking believe that you refuse to understand While your pointing fingers with your dirty hands I never said I was perfect, I'm so fucking far from it But this is my own life and I'm not sweating your shit TO EACH HIS FUCKING OWN So quick to judge someone else Just to avoid looking back at yourself So tell me why should I waste my time Trying to dive into the shallow waters of your unopen mind If You can't see me Then I can't see you What are you trying to hide What are you trying to prove Don't expect me to apologize When you could never take the time to fucking see my side

Turn a Page 02:26
So sorry man So sorry for the cards that you've been dealt But there's no time to live with regret While there's still time to change yourself Looking at yourself through their eyes Too blind to see what you've compromised Open up to see the truth So when negativity fogs you can see right through Cause' in this life you gotta know when to persue, Lost opportunities from fear of something new Recognize the path you must take, No regrets just live for you no matter what the fuck it takes Because you will never see the light hiding in the shadows of someone else And you will never truly live life if you can't be yourself So don't let this world fucking hold you back Open the hands of your clenched fist Reach out and grab whatever matters the most And just don't let go (reach out) and grab this life for your own (rise up) above faking on a stage These are your finest days, it's time to (turn a page) Know yourself, know this world To find the strength to not let it's crooked ways hold you back Growing up in a world where we're destined to lose About all we got left is control of our attitude

Minds Eye 02:20
Plugged in yet disconnected Wisdom outsourced by the information age Something always does our thinking for us We've forgotten how to use our brains Barren minds, and lost ambitions With nothing here to make us fucking feel whole If you lead a life with a head so empty You'll let deception fill the gaps in your soul Society What the fuck have you done to me? Raised to believe Broadcast bullshit here on every screen Tuned to their beat Deaf to the reality in our own streets I guess you gotta be fucking asleep To somehow see their american dream The only truth you'll find is the truth inside Don't live the lie, open (your minds eye) 21 years in a world of fake Accepting the fact that I just have no place I've can run but I can't hide From all these things eating me up inside So for now I'm spilling my guts Before this world swallows my heart I know it's hard to think in these fast changing times But it's not how much but what you do with your time This world will drain the life from your veins Never let this spark of youth fade away Concrete walls to hide their lies A wall of screens to drain our lives And every year the line draws closer But I'm still searching for substance in this modern enclosure

No Substance 02:04
Another Stock in the market, another sheep in the flock I feel no fucking substance as I stare at the clock There's gotta be something more, something to fight for I won't be another number, I'm looking for something more Poisoned youth raised in a world so hollow Part of a rat race I refuse to follow But you never cared because you never thought twice You let ignorance become your greatest vice Sentenced by society just to stand in line You're so fucking unaware there's so much more to life Is this hollow dream all that you can perceive Goddamn I just wish you could see the fucking things I see Not a slave to the radio, you're a slave to your scene Not a slave to the streets, you're a slave to a machine Open your eyes, see through the lies There's more to this life than what it fucking seems You've got (no fucking substance) Does it strike you with fear to hear something sincere I'll do whatever it takes to get this message in your ear If you're playing someone else, you can't think for yourself Smash your TV stop listening and just fucking WAKE UP
