GIDEON LYRICS

1. Champions

Go

Born to believe anything
So sure that you can see it all clearly
Feeling your way through the dark
Set up to fail hand over heart

Cut the lights do you feel in control
Cut the lights do you feel all alone
My eyes have finally adjusted
I'm seeing red
I'm seeing red
Yeah I'm seeing red
I'm seeing red

'Cause we were born born to believe in anything
I'll never stop I'll never stop give it up
Born born to believe anything
Seize the moment all or nothing

Champions
Dare to be (dare to be)
Champions
Leave your legacy
I'm not the only one tired of running
Seize the moment all or nothing
Seize the moment its all or not

Seize the moment its all all for nothing again
Dreams die you wake up in the end
That's what they want you to think
Fall back in line its all out of reach

But as I'm facing the crowd
I see your face in the crowd and you're just like me
Fed up and torn at the seams

'Cause we were born born to believe in anything
I'll never stop I'll never stop give it up
Born born to believe anything
Seize the moment all or nothing

Champions
Dare to be (dare to be)
Champions
Leave your legacy
I'm not the only one tired of running
Seize the moment all or nothing
Seize the moment its all or not

Seize the moment all or nothing
Seize the moment its all or not
Seize the moment all or nothing
Seize the moment

This is where the rubber meets the road
Where its do or die where you go at it alone
And you don't stop 'til you get there
Where the rubber meets the road
Where its do or die where you go at it alone
And you don't stop

Change your world
Dare to be

2. Cursed

[feat. Bryan Garris of Knocked Loose]

Cursed

Just call me misery call me bad news
I'll bring you nothing but pain
Dragging this ball and chain
I was blessed with a curse
The devil knows me by name

You can run hide
If it gives you peace of mind
Don't slip up
The worst is yet to come

Blame it on the bad luck baby
Stay away from me (stay away from me)
Got me feeling like a black cat lately
I'll bring you to your knees

Cursed

I'm starting to break from bending
A losing streak that's never ending
Weed out the weak I was washed in the pain
Redeemed by suffering
Everything around me falls apart
Is this punishment or just a test of heart
Or did Lady Luck just give up and turn her back on me

You can run hide
If it gives you peace of mind
Don't slip up
The worst is yet to come

Blame it on the bad luck baby
Stay away from me (stay away from me)
Got me feeling like a black cat lately
I'll bring you to your knees

So just blame it on the bad luck baby
Stay away from me (stay away from me)
Got me feeling like a black cat lately
I'll bring you to your knees

3. Machines

You will not own me (you will not own me)
You cannot hold me

We are broken and beaten down
A bitter breed now
Welcome to the new age
Where we drape the pain and ache for days
Where the world was a better place
We seem to be torn between
The future and the past but the past is just a memory
The free enslaved
No voice no soul we are machines

(You cannot hold me down)

Are we too blind to see
They took the light from our eyes and told us to believe
You will not own me
Cannot hold me down I am not your machine

Broken and beaten down
A dying breed now
You want to take my life from me
Control and divide
Fill the air with your lies
'Til there's nothing left to breathe
We seem to be torn between
A lifetime of fear and a fight for humanity
It's time the free ignite
One voice one soul we rise and fight fight fight

You will not own me
You cannot hold me down

Are we too blind to see
They took the light from our eyes and told us to believe
You will not own me
Cannot hold me down I am not your machine

Not your machine
Not your machine
Drop
Not your machine

4. Freedom

[feat. Jamey Jasta of Hatebreed]

Freedom over fear
Freedom over all weakness
Freedom over all the lies
With your fist clenched tight in the air tonight
With your fist clenched tight
Throw it up

Stepping out I can remember
Steeping out I can recall
The southern nights and the feel of forever
Never noticed our backs against the wall

It's the same when you ain't got a chance in hell
But fuel to my fire is the voice telling me I was born to fail
So go and run your mouth
Word gets around in the deep south
It's time to cut the ties with a fist clenched tight
Throw it at the sky sing

Freedom over fear
Freedom over all weakness
Freedom over all the lies
With your fist clenched tight in the air tonight
Sing
Freedom over fear
Freedom over all weakness
Freedom over all the lies
With your fist clenched tight in the air tonight

They called us fools but we had nothing to lose
Turn our backs to the past and our eyes to the moon
We're looking up up up and they keep looking down
On everyone who tries to leave this town

Growing up growing numb we're not the same night and day not a chance in hell
You're the fuel to my fire you're the voice telling me I was born to fail
So go and run your mouth
Word gets around in the underground

Let em talk let em talk
Their words mean nothing at all
Let em walk let em walk
Never been one for the dead weight
Let em fall
Let em talk let em talk
Let em waste their breath
We don't care at all
Let em walk let em walk
Never been one for the dead weight
Let em fall
Let em talk let em talk
Their words mean nothing at all
Let em walk let em walk
Never been one for the dead weight
Let em fall

With a fist clenched tight
Throw it at the sky sing

Freedom over fear
Freedom over all weakness
Freedom over all the lies
With your fist clenched tight in the air tonight
Sing
Freedom over fear
Freedom over all weakness
Freedom over all the lies
With your fist clenched tight in the air tonight
With a fist clenched tight

5. The Game

Resist and conquer
Trivial lives misused and seduced to our own demise
This is betrayal
Throw me away on the front line
Put a price tag on my head and force us all to play
This is betrayal
Throw me away (throw me away)

When it's time for me to get low
And they sink my body six feet below
Was I just another voice ignored
Another piece on the board
Another victim of trust

Dust to dust
This is our time to rise
Dust to dust
And prove we're more than just
Dust to dust

This is not a test
This is rebirth
This is a threat
Resist and conquer
I'm not your sacrifice
I'm not your lamb to the slaughter
Resist and conquer

Life is a fight to the death
I started fighting as I took my first step
And I'll be fighting when I take my last breath
Nothing was handed to me
The LVP living in the shadows of the kings and queens
Waited patiently now you're right where I need you to be

When it's time for me to get low
And they sink my body six feet below
Was I just another voice ignored
Another piece on the board
Another victim of trust
Dust to dust

This is our time to rise
Dust to dust
And prove we're more than just
Dust to dust
Prove we're more than just
Dust to dust

Resist and conquer

6. Cold

[Instrumental]

7. Watch Me Sink

You are my last setting sun

Stubborn and hollow
Who holds your cure
Reject the loyal
Repel and endure

Nothing is clear
Push and pull 'til there's no one here
Push and pull 'til they all disappear

The sun was stolen from the horizon

Misery loves company
My faith in you will be the death of me
You can't escape the gravity (dragging you down)
Life is tragic when you feel like a tragedy
Face the war
Brave the storm

You are my last setting sun

Hard headed and hollow
Who holds my cure
Reject the loyal
And pursue the obscure

I've been chasing your shadow in the dark
But you were gone from the start
False hope for this tired heart

Misery loves company
My faith in you will be the death of me
You can't escape the gravity (dragging you down)
Life is tragic when you feel like a tragedy
Face the war
Brave the storm

Pick at the scabs of my wounds so they never heal
I ask myself if you were ever real
I always knew you would run
You are my last setting sun

Pick at the scabs if my wounds so they never heal
I ask myself if you were ever real
A lost cause is just a mirage
Now watch me sink sink sink
Straight down to the bottom

The sun was stolen from the horizon

Misery loves company
My faith in you will be the death of me
You can't escape the gravity (dragging you down)
Life is tragic when you feel like a tragedy
Face the war
Brave the storm

I will brave the storm

8. Pulling Teeth

Traitor I used to call you friend and I let you in
But now the ones I love have become strangers I will never trust again
You won the battle but this is my war it's not the end
You won the battle but this is my war it's not the end

This is a call for revenge
I pledge my allegiance
Bound to vengeance
This is a call for revenge
You won the battle but this is my war it's not the end

This is overdue don't be confused
This is not an apology I want you to feel the pain you put me through
But you're afraid to acknowledge me
So alone (so alone)
No hope (no hope)
No peace (no peace)
Just cope
You call out for help but no one is home

Living in my own mind
I've been trying to find the last nail in the casket
Will I ever learn to forgive and forget
I tried to bury the hatchet but it's buried deep inside my back

Traitor I used to call you friend and I let you in
But now the ones I love have become strangers I will never trust again
You won the battle but this is my war it's not the end
You won the battle but this is my war it's not the end

And I'll be damned if I let you in
This is a call for revenge
I pledge my allegiance
Bound to vengeance
Bound to vengeance
I can't escape these memories
I'm bound bound to vengeance

I've been trying to find the last nail in the casket
Will I ever learn to forgive and forget
I tried to bury the hatchet but it's buried deep deep inside my back

Lay it to rest
Lay it to rest it's like pulling teeth
Trying to forget what you did to me
The last nail in the casket
Lay it to rest
Lay it to rest it's like pulling teeth
Trying to forget what you took from me
The last nail in the casket
Lay it to rest

9. Walk Alone

I've wandered I've strayed
Left home went searching
So many questions remain
This world left me cold
Gave me a heart of stone

It's safe to say I'm not the same

Renegade
The choice I made to walk alone it's the price you pay
I've grown into a thicker skin thicker skin
I've had enough if giving in
'Cause I'm a renegade
This is the choice I made to walk alone and embrace the pain
Born this way (born this way)
Die this way (die this way)
Renegade

Too many fakes too many frauds
Nobody speaks for themselves
Well I've been thinking thinking it's time
Time for me to rebel

'Cause I'm a renegade
The choice I made to walk alone it's the price you pay
I've grown into a thicker skin thicker skin
I've had enough if giving in
'Cause I'm a renegade
This is the choice I made to walk alone and embrace the pain
Born this way (born this way)
Die this way (die this way)
A renegade (renegade)

I won't ask nobody for nothing
If I can't get it on my own (on my own)
So if you don't like the way I'm living
Well just leave me alone

Born this way die this way
Born this way die this way
Oo
Renegade

I've wandered I've strayed
Left home went searching
One thing remains
I'm not the same

10. Scapegoat

Close minded fool
Hide behind your pathetic point of view
And I know and I know it's sad but true
I never needed a scapegoat but I guess you do (I know you do)

Close minded self righteous
Nothing more than a virus
Ignorance at its finest
You're just a useless bigot in your own state of grace
No remorse for your hate
Changing faces to save face

Living in black and white
You judge a book by its cover
Weak minded fool
What gives you the right
To judge one man from another
This ignorance will die with you
(Coward)
Hide your pathetic point of view
And I know I know it's sad but true
I never needed a scapegoat but I guess you do (I know you do)

Cut the neck
We all bleed red
We all bruise black and blue
You'll get what's coming to you
Selfish dispositions
Loud mouth opinions
A lifetime of lies that lie so far from the truth

Living in black and white
You judge a book by its cover
Weak minded fool
What gives you the right
To judge one man from another
This ignorance will die with you
(This ignorance will die with you)

Living in black and white
You judge a book by its cover
Weak minded fool
What gives you the right
To judge one man from another
This ignorance will die with you

Living in black and white
You judge a book by its cover
Weak minded fool
What gives you the right

You have no power
Racist coward
No power
Racist coward

11. Thick Or Thin

My father told me this is how it would be
But you never see it coming when your seventeen
Time marches on with the fading faces
The only thing that stays the same is everything changes

We spent those days full of hope and expectation
And most of the time we were bound to miss (bound to miss)
But I had your back and we held tight to our aspirations
It never crossed my mind that it would come to this

Now it's come to this
I've been chasing ghosts
Losing my mind
Everyone's moving on
I must be falling behind
But I'm still alive still alive
Dead set on staying young and free
'Cause I'm still alive still alive
Am I killing time or is it killing me

I remember the night the bitter taste of goodbye
You felt it too I could see it in your eyes
We stood the test of time but could we stand the test of change
I knew in that moment we'd never be the same
Walk away everything changes
Time marches on with the fading faces
The only thing that stays the same is everything changes

Now it's come to this
I've been chasing ghosts
Losing my mind
Everyone's moving on
I must be falling behind
But I'm still alive still alive
Dead set on staying young and free
'Cause I'm still alive still alive
Am I killing time or is it killing me

Thick or thin my brother my friend
I will stand up for you in the end

My father told me this is how it would be
But you never see it coming when you're seventeen
Thick or thin my brother my friend
I will stand up for you in the end
