when you're with me you're my best friend
then when you leave you're a fucking hypocrite traitor
Say you got two friends
So tight with them
See them all running
They all want revenge
See them on the street
See them all around
Upset the system
Gonna burn it down
Take a swing, fight back
Chances that you take
Knock down, drag out
Stories all the same
Street fight tonight
What you gonna do?
Someone's always running up
Behind you
See them on the run
With bullets in their hand
See them all fighting
They all want revenge
You want a riot
You want a fight
New York City
Is ours tonight
Take a swing, fight back
Chances that you take
Knock down, drag out
Stories all the same
Street fight tonight
What you gonna do?
Someone's always running up
Behind you
You better get ready
No time to mess around
You better get ready
'Cause there's no backing down
You better get ready
No time to mess around
You better get ready
'Cause there's no backing down
They all want revenge
They all want revenge
They all want revenge
Well, I know somebody somewhere is gonna love me
Well, I know somebody somewhere out there is gonna hate me
Well I'm loved and I'm hated and loved and hated
And loved and hated and love, love, love to be hated
Well, I know somebody somewhere is gonna make me feel alright
Well, I know somebody somewhere is gonna piss me off tonight
Well, I know somebody somewhere is gonna, wanna fuck me
power anti-social being human discharge a fascist regime we're fighting in
the streets trying to be free they say the regime will save us all it's
A choice must be made!
In these times of war today
A choice must be made that no one wants to make
The result is inevitable
No one wins but a side must be taken
It's them or us, we don't want it this way
Death is certain and lives are at stake
Whose children must die? Whose buildings must fall?
No one can see eye to eye, all we see is hate
Our freedom fighters are their terrorists
Their heroes are our nemesis
Peace! Is! Not!
Wellllll...
He's not very handsome to look at.
And he eats just like a hog.
And he's always drinkin' my beer up.
Heyyyyyy Pauly the beer drinkin' dog.
Heyyyyyy Pauly the beer drinkin' dog.
Well, he's not very pretty to look at.
And he smells just like a hog.
And he's always drinkin' and fighting.
Heyyyyyy Pauly the beer drinkin' dog.
Never so many times I've heard before
Discouragement, go to work and feel so bored
There's something in my head, something in my heart
Too many people never fight for what they want
Breakin' my back for a better way, it's out of reach
Something inside says, "It's a long way coming, so out of reach"
Listen so many times I've heard their cries
All the disappointment and all the lies
There's something about it, something they want
Too many people unsatisfied with what they got
If we stand together for what is right
We'll show them just how to fight
Break the laws that tread on me, on me
Freedom, so many times I've heard that shit
All the propaganda, I can't deal with it
There's something for me, something for you
What are you gonna do?
When they all turn on you
Is it worth it for us to live
Their way?
It's their mistake and we're to blame.
Are we to live by the rules
And be told what to do
We're not part of their society
FUCK THEIR AUTHORITY
WE'RE THE YOUTH OF TODAY
And nothing can stand in our way
We are young and strong
With our new hopes, we can't go wrong
We'll live without conformity
We've got our dreams, fuck their authority
Can't you look around you?
And see the world of today
They are full of fucking hypocrites
Who keep lying to get their way
It's time for us to try to live our lives
TO KEEP OUR DREAMS ALIVE
TO MAKE THEM ALL REALIZE
That we gotta fight TILL WE DIE!
We've taken to many excuses
And we know we're right
The anger has grown inside us
stood strong through right or wrong. fought pain with time and hate. here i stand alone and on fire in a room with a view, a fence with barbwire. today my world ends and so theirs begins. slowly trying to justify comparible sins. i stand here alone and unafraid. ive known in my past ive done worse days. mayy be apart from my dreams and desires yet no man can withhold me from what i most admire. stood strong through right or wrong. fought pain with time and hate. i'll fight when they try to strip me of my rights and wont, i wont accept defeat. i may be down but i will not be beat. one voice. with pride i'll keep on striving till i die and never, never will i black out. the streets remain in heart without a doubt. one voice.
you have no right to tell us what to do
you have no balls to tell us what to do
you got no right to tell us what to do
you got no balls to tell us what to do
No one cares!
Been there done that, never seen you around
Your claim to my friendship never existed
The truth is you were not to be found
You must have imagined it, you just never had it
You talk about it
Like you were there
It's all heresay
No one cares- No one hears you!
Honor you hold none you're not worthy
Pride you can't buy, you have to earn it
The stories you tell have no credibility
All your name dropping's gonna get your ass beat
Say what you will
No one hears you
It's all bullshit
No one cares- No one hears you
A beam of light cuts through the dark
My angel enraged to hate
I see what life's all about
But I just can't relate
Reality will bring you to your knees
As life goes on
War within my reach...
My war
An empty gaze at early dawn
Before the morning light
Instinct has become mistrust
No valves, wrong or right
A path of life that left it's mark
Like footprints in the snow
You can run, but you can't hide
It's my life, one, two, three, four
Everybody's got a price to pay
It's my life
Gonna do things my own way
It's my life
Take what's mine, take what's left
It's my life
Live my life with no respect
It's my life
Everybody's got a price to pay
It's my life
We don't like you anyway
It's my life
And as I walk these streets all alone
It's my life
And I might not feel like going home
It's my life
Everybody's got a price to pay
It's my life
Gonna do things my own way
It's my life
Take what's mine take what's left
It's my life
Live my life with no respect
You've tried my patience to many times
You've got to much to say
Old soldiers never die
They just fade away
Intimidation and all those games
You play so well
They don't phase me I stand my ground I'll see you in hell
Look into my eyes, when the end is near
A reflection of yourself, living with no fear
You've got the right to turn and walk
You've got the right to stay
In the end we all get fucked
Things never change
Who are you to run my life I think for myself
And if you've got a problem with that I'll see you in hell
No fear [x2]
Intimidation your game No fear
Yahweh promised a conquered land,
Domination over life--man against man
Mother Earth came to conflict with patriarchal powers
And eyes lit up with hierarchy fed desires
The spirit within--quickly became lost
In search of glory and power the rules of war were taught
The dogs, run wild, parting souls from lives
Bombs fragment, the Earth, leaving wounds in her side
The roots of perversion--so deeply planted
Man has become evil--peace and freedom tainted
Leaders ask their people to dig their graves deeper
No spirit of their own--they took heed of their keepers
Man finds himself trapped in aggression
when I try to the right
you always put me down
you're always on my back
why do you hang around?
you can't see beyond your nose
what's making you so blind
the rules you make, those you break
this is your last warning it isn't just a threat
You want to make a commitment?
It's for life
If you want to stand for something
You better stand tall and proud
Don't try to walk the fence or play both sides
Be ready to fight when they look you in the eye
You want to make a commitment
A commitment, it's for life
Don't try to make a commitment unless it's for life
Everyone's got a flag to wave
Until they are called on their beliefs
All I'm saying is you better back it up
When you come face to face with reality
When I make a commitment
I stay true to what is right
I will never make a commitment unless it's for life
You want to make a commitment
A commitment, it's for life
Fuck you and everything that you've ever said about me
I despise you and I'll never show you mercy
This is my life, my oath and sincerity
I live it and I have no time for fantasies
I don't talk about it
I live it!
This is my reality
I live it!
Fuck you and everything that you say and you're about
I live your life, I hold no regrets
Cause you fear mine
I walk the walk, all you ever do is talk
And I'm tired of your bitching and cheap insults
You may take me out of the streets
But you'll never take the streets out of me
This is my life!
I won't live your lies
And I won't follow- It's my life!
Dissident towards the world
Our movement unconvinced
Of what has been force fed
Confronting all those who oppose
The definition of how we live!
Our way, our life, our scene
The definition!
Expression of how we live
Not following anyone's lies
Uncertain of the changing times
But we strive on to fight another day
Changes that were hardly noticed
Until time itself became a chain
Once hot blood began to cool
My ever slowing heart--beat in vain
From the nightmare I wake in another dream
And stare at an unbroken sky
Try to distill a cure for the plague
That's put to rest everything--I once felt inside
To never again be bound by United Blood
A sense of purpose lost forever more
Is this the way I'll die? No!
I'll find the sense of honor--that I held once before
The Blood--The Honor--The Truth
Thought it would never end
The Blood--The Honor--The Truth
Do you think you could wash away your sins?
Did you believe I would let you disgrace me?
What fucking morals do you think I live by?
What more lies will you think of to tell this time?
All is not forgotten
You made your choice
All is not forgiven
Face your punishment
Betrayed by you, so-called friend, when I needed you the most
You walked away, you stabbed my heart
Your turn to bleed now
God may forgive and grant redemption but I have no remorse
Look upon your own reflection, your shame is revealed
What happened to the world today what Happens all you say what happened yesterday? All we do is watch our back sleep with I can't seem to find a better way I can't seem to think about today This and fuck with death we're ready to attack Now I'm never doing right You will start to feel alright! Take a chance on what you feel and maybe Alcohol and violence all those skams And smoking crack how long do And dirty tricks waiting for the tide to shift So your life is not on track shooting dope Somebody told me no matter how you feel don't Forget to know what's real You think you'll last? Situations everyday you can't make a difference If you turn the other way Nobody's right nobody's wrong can you see the Light outside before to long I've got my pride passed down from my fathers What happened to the world today what happens Side and you can never take it away All we do is watch our backs from aids Heartaches and death- fight it all All you say what happened yesterday? Till my last breath!
Minding his own business
Riding subway trains
Got ripped off twice
Ain't gonna happen again
Withdrew a hundred dollars
Bought himself a piece
Can't depend on anyone
He's his own police
Fourteenth Street station
This could be the night
December, he's heavily sweating
Collar feels too tight
Tired of being preyed upon
By the scum of the earth
Tonite he'll be the predator
Someone's gonna get hurt
Walked into an empty car
Found himself a seat
Five low lives waiting there
Waiting for fresh meat
One by one surrounded him
Trapped him by the door
Finger on the trigger
Got more than they asked for
A split second without thinking
Hot gun in his hand
Four shots of blood
Bernie gets his man
Now he stands trial
A criminal he's told
But he got the satisfaction
i remember just the best of you, like the beatings and bruises you gladly through. and when it came down for mental support a blatant strike was how you would resort. tell me what i have done wrong to deserve pain so strong. havent i proven your pride or just a loser in your eyes? so what in the truth is to expect from you after being so abused, so comfused? but thats alright because it only shows that all you had to offer were a few low blows. where did i do you wrong? when have i done you wrong? i know you wish i never existed. showing destain you never resisted. a real father figure you never showed. just emptiness is all i knew. tell me where did i go wrong? was i when i was first born? i could never be your son for all the damage that youve done. where did i do you wrong? when have i failed to show that i can only hold such wrong... sorry about the html but im too damn lazy to erase it.
so they say they'll set me free if i plead quilty and let it be but i'm not
the one who did their crimes so why should i keep taking their jives i'm
done playing all their games and being titled low life names when i'm
innocent and concerned of who i'm and what i've learned i'm not the one who
did their crimes there's no justice, there's just us blind justice srewed
spending your life dreaming of rich fantasies come back of your dreams and
face reality you think you've got everything, but really have nothing it's
just too much pressure and your mind is busting watch out don't make a
mistake you'll lose your money, it's poverty's stake society sucker - you've
a scene all divided with no unity we gotta stick together and fight for what
we believe there won't be a second chance we've got to have it soon got to
stick together and fight 'em all now our friends are more important we gotta
you see it was drawn easy, my services for a rewarding fee. never thinking then of the hundreds ive hurt. their morals and family so deserted, you see, back then my mind was conned, caught in a pipe dream. understand my path set forth from a struggling background. mom always worked her hardest maintaining her four hounds. scared and afraid that my own child's future was at stake quickly reacting was where i made my biggest mistake. filled with dillusions i fell, i fell deep in my grave carried by deceits devouring waves. i can still remember her nights in tears of rage never giving up even with her life in a ruthless maze. took a harsh lesson for me to understand life. what once was taken granted stabbed with a knife. ive towed along loved ones throughout my experiences, placed them in torturous wars when it all was needless. now and then i failed to think deep clear inside. now and then i rather maintain a modest existence. now and then never again will i barter my freedom.
listen up here said a wise man to a fool. here unlike there there are no set rules. remember one thing you came here alone. thats how youll do this bid, thats how youll go home. learn how to do time, dont let time do you. now that youve entered your humanity is withdrawn. known only as a din number, your life is at pawn. i bet you never imagined to be beaten and caged with no one to pity your prayers nor your pains. and you thought in the streets that your life was so unfair and cruel. make one careless mistake here boy and youll drown in your own pool. so take this advice stay alert and on cue. keep only to yourself and your ears in hsarp tune.
four hundred years ago as enforced today, the barriers built then to reform undesirable prey. removed from civilization, reduced to depraved moles. once freedom is withdrawn the levels of hatred soar. for in this house you call our home, your righteous land, your torturous tombs. lust in our future to strengthen our eyes overlook instigations made of immoral lies. force fed lies. keep our lives in colors, animosity you feed. create a need of power, when men wear shades of green. now pit us, bait us and place us on your board. come arm us, force us, and use us in your war. again in our valley where the buffalo roamed your sociopathic battle mourned 7 new souls. the mission a success, divide and conquer technique. the creator not a myth, just an injurious elite.
bless me father for i have sinned. those crimes that i commited, well, i did em again. empty my soul to empower yours. lead me blindly down the path to salvations doors. god in your vanity laws you decree. will give eternal freedom with murder first degree.. look in the mirrir, what would you see. a reflection of your people struck by power and greed. bless me father, for i have sinned. the guidlines for my behavior from above, not within. they say man is his own hell. man created in gods image, that goes for you as well.

We Won't Betray
Our Roots So Strong
Well i'm feeling real sick - who's got the remedy ?
My life - under your authority
can't see straight - no visibility
Break it down - to the first degree
God damn think I lost my head again
Can't stop this way of thinking
God damn think i'm over the edge again
Gotta figure out how to bring myself back
from insane
well you're getting me sick - who's got the remedy ?
My life's - no authority
I can't see straight - the dim reality
pure hatred burns deep in my soul because our bond has cracked in time. its taken months for my cool to explode. now whats been damaged remains in my mind. i should have listened to those you called fools for the fool was i to be led blind. youve played your final game, the odds have failed you again. my faith was all to blame. i thought you were a friend id trust till end. these days you learn to trust no one. you must include those closest friends. for what has many of thier promises done? but left you betrayed in the end. i should have listened to those you called fools for the fool was i to be led blind.
Running in fear as he nears you
Crying out in terror but no one can hear you
Trapped in an alley, nowhere to hide
Carefully watching your steps with his eyes
Growling, awaiting to kill you
Slowly approaching and your death nears you
Nowhere to go, nowhere to run
As he leaps at you and makes his final lunge
Foaming from the mouth
Vengeance in his mind
One swift tear, leaving raw
Flesh hanging from your side
Blood spurting forth from your vein
Hypocrite we had a deal
Nothing ever fucking real
Never trust the outsider
It's proven once again
You can say, what you wanna say
No forgiveness, no mercy
Or you can just go straight to hell
No forgiveness no mercy
It was nothing but a big charade tired of
Playing these fucking games
Can't wait to see your tombstone slate may
Have been fooled but never played
Fuck you, I don't need you
Turns out, I'm better off anyway
Tomorrow is another day
Anger as sharp as the broken glass
Burning cars and tear gas
Every race riot--is the last one
A dying culture's final gasp
Every decade--yet no one learns
And it's always their own homes they burn
Crushed by a quorum-driven-state machine
A nation's will, cannot be turned
Memories lost in a nation's sleep
In the dreams of contented sheep
Can we ever hope to find solutions
When our country has sold the Constitution
All too wrong to be right
The answer's there, we just lack the sight
Race wars fed by prejudice and fright
The love of a nation for its people
burned through the night
Monochrome blood sport--we never tire
So many things feed the fires
To repeat History--a world conspires
see that girl now, turn your head now
eat it right here or go now in control,
in control are you really in control?
sex over there
sleep over there
fight over there
pressure builds up in my head
don't see how in control in control
don't see how people wanna know
In a world of made up heroes
Broken promises and zeros
I can't seem to see much worse than this
I wanna know, wanna know what's going on
Wanna know what's going on today
In a world not fact but fiction
Fairy tales and drug addictions
I cant seem to see much worse than this
I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know what's going on today
I've got no feeling, I've got no feeling
There's no more feelings inside of me
In a world of constant hate
Rape and murder chalked up to fake
I cant seem to see much worse than this
So you hate your Mom, you hate your Dad
You hate "The State" because it's bad
But look at you, how do you rate?
You're just as bad as those you hate
You're telling me--you keep telling lies
But deep down inside--You're not true to your mind
All fucked up, king of the show
Flail at your friends, you don't know
Fight before and afterward
But it don't do you any good
So live your life in ignorance
Close your mind, your defiant stance
Isolate and isolate
Until you're gone and it's too late
To wake up and live
hiding your feelings yourself inside because you're afraid to express them
and lose your pride but why try to be someone you're just not why keep
hiding, letting the real you rot yes, you're afraid to get caught off guard
because you don't know how they'll think (is he "soft" or "hard") but does
it really matter, does it really bother you? to try to be someone else, a
fool leading yourself on to (a life that's not for you) can't you act and be
yourself not another character in a hardcore hangbook well, we don't need
You--You raised your fist
You were some real Anarchist
Made a lot of promises to your friends
You'd never let it end
Now--You just sit and stare like old men
Now--You talk about how it was then
Now it's a few years later
Your scene isn't looking so good
Everything you had, the lives you led
Dead or misunderstood
So--You'll rise from the dead
You'll show everyone
But you're running, running scared
From ghosts of the past
You can't run too fast
No--You'll never get back what you had
No--Well...that's just too bad
Gone--Where did it go, it happened yesterday
here we come to demolish the wall. weve waited years to witness this fall. today we see the truth among curious lies. weve come to seek justice with our own eyes. brick by brick we slave for a life and mortar mix for dimes. we wont allow ourselves to be beat. we wont level this wall of dirty deeds. our rise will be your fall. with force we'll crush your wall. yet it is true how weve been kept in the dark. for our life lacks the beauty of yours. and while the poorer get poorer you could care less because youre set for life with riches. brick after brick weve slaved for your life and mortar mix for nothing but dimes. never again will we ever be beat. nor will we level this wall full of dirty deeds.
what have i done, why am i hated everything has just begun to be updated
have i been aware of my friends or just unfair of myself and of my pride
should i change for my best or should i live my life in a mess i'm the one
who's lost inside but you're the one i can't find feel confused and loneley
people say that i'm insane a victim of society just in pain society's rules
has made me cruel i'm just the opposite, ain't no fool the way i act or way
i dress doesn't make me strong or make me best soon they'll find my reasons
why i'm open minded and not blind but why am i going insane why am i the one
to blame open your eyes, don't tell me lies i'll be the one to live and rise
i'll think for myself and i'm sure to find that society's rules won't change
Go to work give your shares, we'll drain the life from you
The Internet so cool tax dollars hard at work
Built my new swimming pool you think you elected me
So trust I know what's best for you
What do I get for my taxes? Social security
You will never control me
Sit down watch the news, we censored it for you
We control everything you're thinking, so don't be feeling blue
Conform and don't ask questions, you'll wind up in jail
Subliminal happiness is what you want as we can tell
Kicked in the head for non conformity
You will never control me
Uncle Sam, he wants you to take his hand, see you through
Give your life, never trust no one who lies to you
Remember Vietnam nothing but total scam
Can you trust Uncle Sam when he smiles and lies to you?
Nixon Watergate, Clinton, it's too late
Who says Ol'Glory's gone
The pride we still carry on
Remember those led astray
POWER - WON'T FADE AWAY TODAY, TOMORROW, FOREVER [x2]
UNITED - WE STAND DIVIDED - WE FALL
Respect you must earn
An honor for all...
TODAY, TOMORROW, FOREVER
WE GOTTA STICK TOGETHER
WE'RE DOWN FOR LIFE FOREVER DIVIDED...
NEVER UNITED,
face society and its bias laws. roam through endless courts and its corruptive jaws. they say a man is innocent till proven guilty. for sure they meant the opposite in reality. forced to a plea, forced to give in. refused to seek justice, chosen to turn their chins. now youve got their offers. he say you cant refuse. they choose your public defender to be sure youll give in and lose. dont get caught dont give in and lose. nothing beats the truth to be set free. minute turn to hours, hours to days. days into nightmares with therapy pain. forced into a plea to withdraw your rights. fell into its contents refusing to continue the fight. now the truth is sought, costly in its length. time to be set free, regain your natural strength. dont fall into-broken rules-dont be fooled. hold strong, stay free.
Killing's my business and business is fine
Money's my interest, life isn't kind
You know you can run but there's nowhere to hide
Payback's a bitch boy
Now you're gonna die
Hand me the contract, I've got no remorse
The more cash I get, the bloodier the worst
You claimed their way out, life is up in flames
How 'bout doin' it my way
Beheaded or slain
[Chorus:]
Hanging or lethal injection
Gas chamber - take a last breath
Firing squad, electrocute, we'll execute!
More than one face of death
Kill 'em all, let God sort 'em out
A soldier of fortune, I'll wipe 'em all out
Having no home, I have no shame
I'll take a life, another victim in pain
Try turning the tables or make it a frame
You can't snuff me out
Because you're my game
You know you're my target
Your time stands still
But no job's too tough
Taking it back
New York Hardcore
Agnostic Front
Let's go!
Take me there, take me back
To before my tomorrows died
To when it was so real and true
To when it was my only care- Take me back!
Take me there to when it started
Take me back to when we ran it
Just take me, just take me,
Just take me, take me back!
This is real, this is pure
Take me, take me back!
Cro-Mags, Warzone, Murphy's Law
Agnostic Front, Sick of it All
CBGB's where it all began
The music, the lifestyle we represent
Day after day
See a world grow cold and grey
Did you see it today
Youth that rage while their idols age
Need some new start
See ideals for what they really are
What does it take?
Eyes for the blind
What does it take?
Strength of the mind
That's what it has to be
To cast everything aside for me
It takes sacrifice
To find the heart and set it free
You better find the drive
While you're young and still alive
No one hands you the truth
No one can say what's right for you
Don't wait for the call
Strength above all
Don't just wait in vain
For everything to change
Don't wait for the call
I'm not in this fight alone!
Still in your face, still fucking here!
Till my last dying breath!
Hate! Hate! Hate! Hate!
So many have come and gone, only a few have stood the test
For some it's just a passing phase, but for us it's the only way
We are still right here! Right here!
The scars we wear show that we are real
It's not something we saw on t.v. or that we read in a book
It was born in the streets!
This is for those with real hate inside
This is for those with no shame to hide
This is for the fuck ups and the disenchanted
We are the ones who refuse to be branded
We are right here! Still right here!
Trends set no values, they just confuse the youth
They give no reason for nothing to hold on to
Our time never expires, our marks show that truth
The chains that bind us, you can't undo
Since the day I turned 15 I've been
Standing on my own
Never tried no suicide standing on my own
Everyday, I'm moving forward even
Though it seems a little bit awkward
Lost myself a thousand times I found
My way home, I found my way home
Standing on my own with no help from you
Since I lost my innocence I've been
Standing on my own
No time to reminisce standing on my own
Everyday, I seem to mess up even
Though I think it's real bad luck
Lost myself a thousand times
I found my way home
Standing on my own with no help from you
Since the day I turned 15 I've been
Standing on my own
Never tried no suicide standing on my own
I learned to live, I learned to live, I've
Been standing on my own
I learned to fight, I'll learn to die
Standing on my own
It's me or you, and something's gotta give
You take from me all that is pure
A lesson I have learned
Now's your chance to turn and walk on bridges that you've burned
Too much shit can't get ahead
Something's gotta give
I don't know friend or foe
Something's gotta give
Come at me your gonna lose
Don't piss me off don't light my fuse
The choice is never yours of course
And I'll survive with no remorse
Time will come when we will pay
There'll be no choice for you to take
World War III won't be a fake
You just can't look the other way
[Chorus:]
Time will come and time will go
You'll learn to live and learn to fight
You'll fight for freedom and fight to die
But you'll never know the reason why
Killing people for their greedness
But unaware of the evilness
Once you're dead there'll be no sorrow
Talk about the problems today
Give me my freedom, give me my say
They wanna take away our choices
They try to silence our voices
But they can't take away our pride
Do or die - All our lives
We have to fight - Just to survive
Society puts it's blame on me & you
I'm not ashamed, there's nothing I can do
They tried to run, they tried to hide
They insulted my pride
There's nothing left to do but fight NEW YORK HARDCORE
In a life of pain with no restraint
freedom of my life, give it back to me
I wanna live can't you see
discriminate me,
call me a bum but I'll survive,
it's your fault freedom of my life,
why make it a mess?
give me a job, I've got to survive
discriminate me,
why can't you help?
everybody thinks I'm a scum
freedom of my life,
Subway ride a free ride somewhere I can't explain
Another night, I climb a ten-story building
Just to spit on a passing parade
Suspect defeat change the TV station
As the media takes over your brain
Expedite, unite, bring yourself together
Before you drive yourself insane
Some say, I'm crazy but there's no other way
What goes around comes around goes around again
Stolen car, one more of a thousand in the city
That never sleeps another please help me
I'm drowning in the sewers running under the streets
Newscast, outcast, stranger to society, stranger to the trends today
talk about unity talk abour conformity
you don't want to support the scene
why don't you get the fuck away from me
I'm a skin, you're a skin who's gonna suffer live in sin,
where you been you're all gonna go under
Live come to the end
Nowhere to go
Look back and see
Remains, left in the road
Can't keep me behind closed doors
Or locked up in a cage,
I'll rise again
My stregth comes from my pain
Time to break free
Don't hold me back
The world is mine
Be it cruel and unkind
Voices, in my head tell me I'm insane
Voices, me grita en mi cabeza
Voices, are to blame
yesterday, my wourld crashed with a blast. that period i chose to bury my past. it tells of time-my back against the wall. back then, a victim of society to maul. spend your life pushing and shoving to climb to the top but youre held by a thread. all the work youve dont goes to waste because in this life you just cant get ahead. again myy world came tumbling hard upon my back. life sifted through my hands like sand through an hourglass. it tells of time i'll never recapture. the grains controlling my life scarred me forever. so this is how it goes-you give with no return. youre always underotwed-cant get ahead.
They told me when I was young that I would change
What I once saw would become like everything else
The same -
The open eyes of youth would close down just to cracks
I would - never again see the real world
Just like the rest, I'd turn my back
I told them once when I was young
That it was too late for me to change
I couldn't ignore the facts
The reality that brought this incredible pain
[Chorus:]
Scars within my flesh and soul
Stayed just for show
Seeing, I felt and saw things
Others could never know
They tell me now to turn my head
So that I may rest at peace
But ignoring the things that I know
Would be living a life of deceit
The perversion of love and the power of hate
Lie deep inside my head
I can't turn to ignorance -
Call me a sellout, call me a fake
How much do you have at stake?
It's nothing but lies, outrageous cries
A cry for help, look at yourself
So you talk it, do you walk it?
Or do you police the scene?
Those who talk shit are really something
Lying to themselves hiding something
Watching everyone, watching you
The generations to follow will embrace our past
What the future holds is our everlast
Our dedication and sincerity, our eternal flame
Today, tomorrow, forever! We're here to stay
It's your life, it's your dreams- Dedication!
It's what you make out of it- Dedication!
It's how you chose to live- Dedication!
It's your life, it's your dreams- Dedication!
I've committed myself to something so real to me
The path I chose strengthen my integrity
Nothing can compare, nothing shows any threats
Nothing can ever surpass my achievements
I remember way back when I felt alone
I had no one to turn to, nowhere to go
I found an outlet, a place to belong
It felt so right- New York Hardcore- My home!
Some people stayed, watched others go
Those few who walked away will never know
The birth of man was the birth of Hell
The wrathful flames dance around my head
Falling figures, burning dead
A well once filled with flowing water
Now an endless tunnel of hate and squalor
Covered, once, with locks of hair
All burned off, to leave me bare
A hand that once reached out to feel
Now gropes about for something real
I try to hold onto what I've found
But the heat of the touch melts all to the ground
Pulling back, Inside my head
I watch for hours, the listless dead
From my hear flows the tears
Giving no life to that which is seared
I wait for the day when only ashes appear
Nothing gained--and no more fear
hang out with me then you come and stab my back are you friend or foe?
see me on the streets you walk right by me are you friend or foe?
then you tell me on the phone I'm a fucking clone are you friend or foe?
when you need help you come back to me arey ou friend or foe?
For my family for my friends
For those that we've lost I sing.
This is a message, this is for you
Never forget the lower east side crew!
I remember all times we spent
And all that we went through
Down on avenue A
The year was 1982!
HARDCORE! New York City!
NEW YORK!
That's how we live it!
We always stuck together
We always had something to prove
We gave birth to a movement
This is for the old school and the new!
HARDCORE! New York City!
NEW YORK!
Exposing you to my world
Face judgement on my terms
Paved into life by you
No point in hiding the truth
Fall of the parasite!
Explode- gonna bring it to you
Explode- here's the fucking truth
You and me- my blood is boiling
I see red- my rage is burning
So many people will come and go
Past their time before they know
Swear they were there from the start
Never had it in their hearts
Things you do--come back to you
Things you've said--echo on inside your head
Figureheads come cheap these days
No one listens to what they say
In their faces I see the fear
A crucial moment drawing near
You pay the price--take bad advice
Beaten down hang your head in shame
This world has washed your dignity away
A shell of a person, a wayward soul
Your heart barely beats as your blood runs cold
Alone you spend your days of apathy
You see your life through eyes of misery
You're another casualty of the times we live in!
I feel no pity for people like yourself
And I have no fucking sympathy for you or anyone else
Now you're broken, now you're distant
Now you're jaded, you're a piece of shit!
Now you're broken, now you're distant
You're another casualty of the times we live in!
No fucking pity! No fucking sympathy!
The end is here per se
Coming near break of day
A bomber prepares for a flight
A blitzkrieg mission tonite
[Chorus:]
Writhing in my dreams
Feeling the painful screams
Torturing my brain
Driving me insane
Bomber up and away
Causing destruction today
Your mission almost complete
Never admitting defeat
[Chorus]
Bomber Zee again tonite
Feeling yourself in flight
Bombing in your mind
Wounding the life inside
Blinded but now I see, my choice is my destiny
I got back what I lost, but was it worth the cost?
My back is turned, you can't wait to speak
No balls to back up what you preach
BLINDED YOUR BLINDED
The time will come when someone calls your bluff
Your gonna burn, enoughs enough
I know I can trust myself cause I believe in what I say
I believe in my friends, because their with me everyday
Believe that we can overcome because the scene is strong today
Believe I live this life, because I know HARDCORE'S THE WAY
Believe we are right
Believe we are strong
Believe in yourself
BELIEVE - HARDCORE
I know things look bleak sometimes I wish it wasn't that way
Right before my eyes I've been betrayed
I've worked so hard and everything
I fucking gave you haven't changed
A rat, a traitor, digging yourself a grave...
Right before my eyes. I see all your shame
I feel all your pain
You have turned your back
I'm in a rage, can't control
My feeling
I've been upstaged
Life in a cage, no longer human burning from all the hate,
Against the grain I live this life every single fucking day
They ask why do we dress this way
Live for now--Don't understand today
See the kids--But don't hear what they say
Close your eyes and look the other way
Say the end justifies the means
Gonna lock us up and throw away the keys
Crucified--Crucified for your sins
Crucified--Crucified for your sins
They don't know our feelings--only desperate cries
They see reflections through distorted eyes
We don't care because it breaks their views
Got to learn to fight to live
Before they grind us under heel
We're the targets so easy to find
And we're the ones that won't stay in line
I find myself nailed to a cross
For something that I didn't do
It's your fault you've ruined our lives
And we're the ones you crucify
You're the ones who commit the crimes
now is the time to show what to do
crucial change, it all starts with you
you're not here to make this a better place
Do you feel so betrayed?
Like to dance that beat away?
Hip-pop club guys look at
You feel so free
What can you do put yourself down
You're a disgrace
Why do you support them?
As they call you bitch to your face
Why do you support them?
Listen to the rhythm it's so great
You don't care what the lyrics say
Trade your pride for a dance
You'll support them as you laugh
As I see you're going nowhere
But you like the fashion that they wear
You let them put you down 'cause it's popular music
And you'll pretend that you don't care
Speak up in a crowd, you don't dare
You'll just pretend that you don't care
You hide behind our cause
Wave a flag for all to see
We know all your flaws
Your intent, always greed
Superseed for your greed
Stab our backs, we bleed
No shit, we won't take
Realize you're just a fake
Played your games with no respect to me
Now I see you're no friend to me
Toppling, smashing -
The statues go crashing
And all of your ancient ideals
Your morals we question
Put them to testing
Rules broken you thought were of steel
Scrupleless children
We number in millions
Won't stand for any more of your crummy deals
[Chorus:]
Growing concern
Priests are just rapists
Who worship the dollar
Get hardons from girls at the altar
When in confession
Laugh at your depression
We pay for their
Sins when they falter
[Chorus]
Teachers who profess
We'll make them confess
They've taught us not wisdom, but lies
Burning their textbooks and archaic outlooks
In society's funeral pyre
Senators gain weight as the poor deflate
Starve - as they vote themselves raises
Finger on button, a nuclear glutton
Governing rats caught in mazes
Parents who have raised us
Have not taught but crazed us
Priests who confessed us
Have not cured but depressed us
We'll turn and ignore as we head for the door
it's your mistake!! we're here to be and the one's to succeed no need for
you to tell us how to be can't seem to find your reasons why you tell us
lies and think you're wise why can't you think before you sink why can't you
see, then come to me tell us lies and ask us why we hate society and we're
here to fight i won't shake their hands 'cause they're not our friends won't
talk to you 'cause you can't be true you've got problems, yet you keep
hiding them you entered thieir gate , but now it's too late it's your
clenching my fist, holding it in. cant keep up the gaurd, i must break within. ive kept to myself, obeyed my script. now ive violated into a boiling fit. ive givin fair warning, best known to enforce you. you wish to challenge my anger, i wish to prove you untrue. ive set no room for lost untrue memories of how it was then from those who lived. step back new jack. it would have been wiser to have kept you in check. destroying the cahnce of you crossing the line. retaliate, step back new jack. take this advice, retreat off my tracks. build your own life, dont live off my past. for in this future i'll play a new role. excluding freeloaders, ive set a new goal. ive given fair warning, best known to enforce you. you wish to challenge my anger, i wish to prove you untrue. youll never know the load of shit you dug throughout time. i could never ever sleep at night with you in my mind. i dont live a life full of lies. you built your own wall to break. i always had a lot to give and all you did was take. i wont live
they hate us, we'll hate them they deny us, we'll defy them they ignore us,
we'll remind them they taught us to hate and lie to obey them and look in
their selfish eyes reject the system and their games the games they play to
rise above laws they make, rules they could shove ideals to take over our
minds unjustified greed to rule our lives their desire to overpower and
conquer to succeed for their own kind reject their authority, be aware of
their schism we won't adjust to their society their capitalistic form of
prison remind them they taught us to lie remind them they've corrupted our
Look at me, look at you, nothing to say
Everything I'm own, you've taken away
All I ever wanted was to get by
Now you wanna know the reason why
Don't believe in fate, I believe in bad luck
All the stories told art so trumped up
Wanna know why i'm so fucked up
Now you wanna know the reason why RAGE...
RAGE Every waking moment has this strain on me
Can't unlock these secrets if I have no key
When I go blow it up you'll know it's my time
Now you wanna know the reason why
My bad luck
Su trumped up
So fucked up
Now you wanna know the reason why?
You spend your life on welfare lines
Or looking for handouts
Why don't you go find a job
You birth more kids to up your checks
So you can buy more drugs
Cash in food stamps and get drunk
[Chorus:]
Uncle Sam takes half my pay
So you can live for free
I got a family and bills to pay
No one hands money to me
You can go to school for nothing
Got that government grant
Get money in advance
When you're sick from shooting up
Medicaid pays full portion
When little Maria gets knocked up
She gets a free abortion
[Chorus]
How come it's minorities who cry
Things are too tough
On TV with their gold chains
Claim they don't have enough
I say make them clean the sewers
Don't take no resistance
If they don't like it go to hell
Pride, faith, respect- This is what we live for
This is dedicated to our fallen soldiers of the DMS Crew
You are gone but never forgotten
Con amor vaya con dios
We strive in honor for our brothers who are gone
Through the thick and the thin, we fight and push on
We'll never abandon all that we've built for years
No regrets, no pains, no guilt, no tears!
Pride is not a sin, it's a value- Pride is not a sin!
Pride, faith, respect- this is what we live for
Hardcore and this is what we die for
Our legacy is eternal, my crew is my family
Pride is not a sin, it's a value- Pride is not a sin! DMS Crew!
Pride, faith, respect- this is what we live for!
This is what we die for!
Pride is not a sin, it's a value
You think that you're always right
Throw your line and see what bites
Need to clarify your way with violence
In our minds each day
Now the time is here
Excuses made from fear
What we want from you nothing but the truth
Sitting down behind your desk with offices to represent
With democrats and anarchist
Never know what to expect
What we want today is to find another way
Someone we can choose don't make things right for you
So we follow you like sheep
Well, I don't think you fit the lead
Voted in and voted out
Time to see what life's about
Citizens revenge, this is where it ends
No more lies from you now your time is through
New york police state!
New york police state!
New york police state!
New york police state!
New york we hate you!
New york we hate you!
New york we hate you!
Guliani guliani guliani fuck you!
Guliani guliani guliani fuck you!
New york police state!
New york police state!
New york police state!
New york police state!
New york we hate you!
New york we hate you!
New york we hate you!
Guliani guliani guliani fuck you!
Guliani guliani guliani fuck you!
New york we hate you!
New york we hate you!
New york we hate you!
You're the lowest form of life
You don't deserve to take another breath in this world
Your perverted mind will bring you down to this
She's barely ten years old, you're fucking sick
Kill yourself suicide, it's about time you fuckin' die
Kill yourself suicide, kill yourself suicide
You've got a sick mind with no problem
Kidnap a little girl, tie her up and all that
Built a secret room to hide her from the world
Normal guy with a normal job and I'm the only one disturbed?
Never thought you you'd be caught
Everything leads back to you
Underneath the TV was a room they found it too
Kill yourself, kill yourself, I got the feeling that it's time you die
Crucify yourself with a rusty nail
Or get fucked up in a prison cell
Raping children of their innocence
From the East Coast to the West Coast
Gotta, gotta, gotta go
Two sounds of a revolution
Gotta, gotta, gotta go
In our hearts in our souls
Gotta, gotta, gotta go, oi
United we stand, divided we fall
Gotta, gotta go
Can?t keep touch with you or me
Gotta, gotta go
Need sense of security
Gotta, gotta go
Want to live my life for me
Gotta, gotta go
Why can?t they just let me be?
Gotta, gotta go
Say I?m crazy, just brain dead
Planting thoughts within my head
Can?t believe what I?ve said
What has become of me?
What has become of me?
Don?t believe what you?ve been told
Gotta, gotta go
Never seen no streets paved in gold
Gotta, gotta go
Mindless violence ruined me
Gotta, gotta go
No such thing as something free
Gotta, gotta go
Say I?m crazy, just brain dead
Planting thoughts within my head
Can?t believe what I?ve said
What has become of me?
What has become of me?
I gotta, gotta go, gotta, gotta go
I gotta, gotta go, gotta, gotta go
I gotta, gotta get, out of here
Gotta gotta go, I gotta gotta go
Gotta, gotta go, I gotta, gotta go
I gotta, gotta go I gotta, gotta go
I gotta, gotta get out of here
I gotta, gotta go, I gotta, gotta go
better look out you've gotta move quick
they're coming to get you
uncle sam, this is it this is the final war!
this is the final war
push around and stab each other
fight around and kill each other
fight fight fight
riot riot
beat him hard, beat him dead
beat him harder, beat him down
break their legs
we're gonna break their legs
why should go around and bashing one other if they look or think different,
why let it bother everyone's got their own style, their own thoughts don't
let it bother you, don't let it get caught your fascist attitudes - we need
the least with a scene that's fighting for unity's peace don't need no more
anger; no more danger don't need to hate;stop before it's too late learning
how to respect each otheris a must so why start a war of anger/danger among
us it's time to grow out of your nazi-hypocrism when you really don't want
When it all goes wrong, man, you know that feeling
Gotta work and still can't pay rent
See them walk by in the latest fashion
The streets are filled with just me and them
When money is your God with your credit cards
Quality of life is just fucked up
I just turn around and watch a Cadillac car, see
Them mow' em all down, oh, yeah
Dead yuppies on the sidewalk, right in front of me
Dead yuppies on the sidewalk, lying on the streets
Never coming back as far as I can see
Dead yuppies on the sidewalk, right in front of me
Front of me, lying there, right on the street
Living life with no believing
Well, everything is all profit then
Raising the rents in the neighborhood buildings
Sixty hours a week and I'm a still broke man
They're in the restaurants in the laundromat
Every where I go, you know, I see'em
As I pass by, beside a runaway car and I watch' em, all die, oh, yeah
They were sitting in the restaurant outside, you know that part
Across the street, at the light, he had a heart
Attack, hit the gas, that's all she wrote
He had a heart attack, hit the gas
Awash on the tides of city rain
I flow through the streets and into the drains
Numbed by the gaze of uncaring faces
Try to offer my truth--but they drift away
Until the streets and myself have no name
No longer human--no longer the same
Lost all hope--lose all dreams--No more pain
Awake--I choke on human steam
And the stench of animal fear
Tonight I'm going to light a match
And let the sewer burn--until my soul is clear
Each night a thousand hearts are wasted
On those who don't care if they live or die
Each day I wade through vacant stares and wonder
Are they looking for the same things as I
I see the people turn away
And still hear every word they say
Hope someday I'll have the nerve
To put a bullet through my brain
