1. For The Long Haul
I have a feeling that I’d be fine, if you paid your dues, cause I’ve paid mine
I sweated it out, I’ve made the effort, I’ve broken the bones, I passed the test
Give me something to live for, give me something more
They say there’s a light at the end of the tunnel (They say there’s a light)
Give me the recognition that I deserve
Give me the respect that I deserve
So many times I’ve been walked all over
So many times you have brought me down
I’m going to stand on my feet again
I don’t need your pity
I don’t need your approval
I’m going to be stronger than ever this time
I don’t need your help
I’ve worked so hard for everything that I can call my own
I’ve worked so hard [I’ve worked so hard] for everything
You can’t take this away from me
You can’t take this away from me
2. Hoop Dreamz
Your Diamonds mean nothing
Nothing to me
You flaunt your wealth like I’m supposed to give a fuck
And your confidence comes with a price tag
You’re just a slave to the name that’s on your shirt
What would you be if your money left you
Would you still show your face
My rags are my riches
With nothing in my pocket I stand tall
I can’t wait to watch you fall, after all
Karma’s a bitch and packs a punch
Can you even handle
Reality anymore
Or are you lost in your own fucked up world
Don’t flaunt what you got anymore
I’m not interested
You sold out everyone you know
And you’re going to regret every second of it
What would you be if your money left you
Would you still show your face
My rags are my riches
With nothing in my pocket I stand tall
I can’t wait to watch you fall
You sold your soul for fools gold
I can’t wait to watch you fall
You sold your soul for fools gold
I’ll be there to kick you when you’re down
You sold your soul for fools gold
I’ll be there to kick you when you’re down
You sold your soul for fools gold
3. Friendly Stranger
What’s your name, where are you from
What’s your story, let’s have some fun
I’ve never seen you before
But the music’s loud and I’m feeling good
I can see us getting along, I can see you calling me back
What would come of this situation
What would come of this, what would come of us
You’ve got the look, You’ve got my attention
Consuming me right to the core
What would come of this
What would come of this, what would come of us.
It would be so nice if you weren’t like the rest of the world
My past is fading away
And my future starts today
If I had the choice
I would erase my memory
No recollection or recovery
Throw your morals aside
No need for extra baggage
Throw your morals aside
No need for extra baggage
Forget everything that you know
Forget everything that you know
Throw your morals aside
No need for extra baggage
Throw your morals aside
No need for extra baggage
It would be so nice if you weren’t like the rest of the world
4. Bust At The Chino
The night is calling
Heading downtown to place my bets
Temptation on my shoulder
And it is saying
If you play your cards right
(Yea ill play them right)
lady luck will be mine tonight
(Mine tonight)
Those snake eyes staring me in the face
Roll the dice to see what I can take
I’m getting dizzy
But I will spin that wheel again
I’ll let it ride
Let it ride tonight
Let it ride
Let it ride
And the sad truth is
My greed will always win
It’s a burden my shoulders cant seem to bare
And the sad truth is
My greed will always win
It’s a burden my shoulders cant seem to bare
I’ll let it ride
I’ll let it ride
I’ll let it ride tonight
And the said truth is
My greed will always win
The sad truth is
I will never win
I lost it all
It’s all gone
I spent it all
It’s all gone to shit
It’s all gone
It’s all gone
5. Bless My Eyes
This must be the end of the world
A dead silence, all was quiet, a faint ringing in my head
To blink would deprive me of the world’s beauty
For in these final moments I am free
In a flash everything was destroyed(destroyed)
Our existence disintegrated in to a memory
Everything we had ever known was taken from us
Everything we had ever known was taken from us
The sky has left us behind
The ground begins to crumble
The earth begins to shake
We panicked as we lost way
And then it all became reality
We fell to our knees
And at that moment
I understood we would never see
The world for what it was again
We would never see the world
For what it was again
We will never see this world
At that very moment(at that very moment)
The sun had set for the last time(for the last time)
It sunk in to the darkness(sink in to the darkness)
A final ray of light blessed my eyes
And touched my soul
It blessed my eyes
It blessed my eyes
