1. Caboose
do you know yourself? do you know the others?
can you pull the weight that rides on another's shoulders?
once you've lost yourself to the acceptance mask,
well could you find yourself? it's not a simple task.
self-inherence...freedom...comes from within.
take a different track, it's time to see what your are made of.
can you expose yourself? can you peel off another layer?
will you make the time? the time to take control.
because only you can save yourself, only you can save your soul.
and once you save yourself, insecurities will die.
genuine qualities and true character will shine.
now that you belong to you what will the others think?
soon they'll follow you, you'll see they're all so weak.
come on...can you let go? can you be you?
2. Guilty By Ignorance
the life you live ignoring who, ignoring who you're giving money to.
and you , you support the corrupt industries and companies who don't think to care.
guilty...guilty...guilty by ignorance.
no feeling...no substance...killing...you're killing through your ignorance.
so understand they kill, they kill for the sake of capital gain.
and your blind consumption fuels, fuels the corporate fires of destruction.
because you don't care to know that your life steals life.
so take a look at your empty conscience because ignorance is not innocence.
you...have...become, you've become the enemy to those, to those victims of greed.
to those victims.
3. Harrison Bergeron
now i can walk through those, through those fires that burn in the path of my dreams.
my soul is, my soul is my savior, my autonomy, you tried to steal it.
you had me shut down, but i'm alive since i have found...
faith...moves, faith moves the mountains as fear runs into the ocean deep.
take me far away from here. i've come to claim my confidence and my will.
you've had me down, had me standing in my own way,
a blinded coward, but now ill follow my lead.
learn to walk beyond those who have walked all, walked all over you.
so i have found my voice through perseverance,
and left the choice to speak the words that have gone unsaid.
4. Priceless
so would you sell your life? would you sell your soul?
have you sold your thoughts to greed control?
do you have the mind to break away?
a slave to the man, your life is chained.
what are you going to do do? well you've bought your image and you lost your soul.
and where are you going go? when you're all alone with empty goals.
behind these walls and facades you hide.
we see you smile when you cry inside.
you cry for life a valued life that one can't buy.
success is money? your life's based on a lie.
you...can't...sell...you can't sell me.
so can you find your life since you've sold your soul?
have you lost your heart to greed's control?
do you bow down and kiss the ground?
to your possessions your life is bound.
5. Zombie Prescription
no representation of my voice. your prescription set to destroy.
our persistence to boycott, silent partners you know we are not.
we are the signs of the changing...
perseverance, we've come of age. collective interests to engage.
we are the signs of the changing times. cut you down to size.
these are changing...these are changing...these are changing times
your preconceptions condemning race, and your solutions they cramp our space.
self sufficient that is our goal. recognition of some self control.
6. Killing Yourself To Live
you're poisoning the sole essence, poisoning your whole existence
for the substitution of cognition, walking around like the living dead.
killing yourself...killing yourself...why do we kill ourselves to live?
wafer thin, new role models suffer yourself caught in a fashion spin.
full subscription, false admission, walking around with an empty head
a standard wage, routine daily, overindulge and live inside a cage.
repetition of blurred vision. minimum gain from the blood we shed.
7. She Suffocates
we don't see her behind her molded worth,
and she excepts it, or regrets it. we consume her shell.
she must refuse his pride. this world she must defy...defy
they will sell her as a mindless game,
and you're a winner when you own her. what we expect is vain.
doors don't open and she suffocates,
and she will teach us and makes some changes, but we don't learn a thing.
we don't see her...we don't see her...we'll consume her, but we don't see her.
8. Weak Tyrant
open your hands. clenched fists, black eyes and weakness inside, inside your mind.
you're scared that you can't hide your fear of that which reveals weaknesses.
so you hide your insecurities through hatred, anger, and intimidation.
self-destruction, embrace nothing, it's digression.
go...go away from here.
no...no progression.
through your violence it brings us all down.
we have fallen through your anger.
weakness is the weak tyrant.
9. Vent
so it's been a bad day. everything seems grey. my upstairs is out of place.
i need to be by myself, rely on no one else. only i can erase the slate.
all of the walls i've built to protect me seem to fall
down all around and i see things so differently, down
is the taste of the day but things will change.
i can be strong....keep my head up.
time, all i need is some time by myself. i need to
go where there is no one to come and try to find me.
my feelings must open up and vent, breathe.
i can be strong...beat frustration...keep my head up...accept my feelings now.
so there will be better days. saced getaways are the means of my escape.
then i will collect my thoughts or lose them if i chose. i control this game.
10. Breaking And Reaching
I run and i fall while the world keeps on running,
running right by them don't bother to lend a hand.
they want me to follow, but i can't understand.
and i'll wait, i'll wait, but they don't acknowledge me.
i've bought the answers even when i disagreed.
breaking...breaking my inhibitions...reaching...reaching my destinations.
when your sinking you'll learn to edify.
treat yourself like someone, give someone a piece of your mind.
regrets are token of what had gone untold.
you're only special when you break from the mold.
breaking...breaking my inhibitions...reaching...reaching my destinations.
