you are the blood running through my veins. you are the streets that made me this way. in you ive lost and regained faith but in my silence i'll never betray. these are the streets where men are made. where our values are sometimes plagued into temptation i dwell for days. and i cant stop, wont stop living by the gun. never one to run from my fears. cant stop livin this way and i know what my life means to me. i see theres things that shouldnt be, i see theres still hope for me. but i see myself in these streets and i try but i cants stop. you say theres still time but i wont stop. and i know theres still hope for me. but i see myself in these streets. i pray theres hope for me.
Enough times been wasted and now I'm faced with our realities and what's to come of this scene. So many come and go, some have disgraced it. I think its time we take a stand show them what we mean. You can't stop this, this think of ours. Hold it down. This things is ours, hardcore is ours. Time after time, line after line. I must express the truth 'cause that is what we stand for. Some live to lie they will defy and deny our roots I pay no mind. You no who we care for. And I'm not only speaking for myself I cant. I hope I speak for everyone else out there. 'cause a lot of people think that we don't care. But they can't stop what I'm bringing can't stop what I'm bringing. Tryin to make a change do what I can. They can't stop what I'm bringing can't stop what I'm bringing. You can't stop what we're bringing. Tryin to make a change and hold it down 'cause we can
you better think quick, act fast before its time you take another blast. you better think about where you stand 'cause it seems youre on the wrong path. used to look down, talk down. now you walk down the same path blown out. youre foolin yourself, youre not proud. so lean on me to come down. choose youre own fate, but this aint mine. youve fallen from grace, i wont let you fall this time. out back to back days sniffin gak, now youre really on the wrong track. do you really want to come back?
are you losing yourself and do you want that? i fall this time. its not a necessity, its just a fantasy and its too much for me. too much of anything is not a good thing. fallen and now i plead.
everyday i hate more and more cuz i know the truth. its just a role you play and nothing more. lifes a game to you. but i live by another set of rules and i know just what it takes to prove. that weak at heart is what youll always be. your fake ass wont compete with me. it must be hard to live in disgrace. they know the truth and now who should you blame? you have no fucking shame. im the one so blame me. everyday i hate i cannot relate. youll never be a part of my scene. youre just a sucka mc, a fucking wanna be. now come and throw joints with me
[spoken] this song goes out to all the kids out there who are keeping it real and turning their backs on any hardcore bands that make any money. fuck that man. hardcore isnt about money, its a way of life. sure i live with my mom right now, but id live on the streets if i had to. and i know deep in my heart, that one day, i'll go to college, get a real job, and forget all about hardcore. but until then im gonna talk as much shit as i can. diy! [sung] d.i.f.f.m. fuck you! d.i.f.f.m. fuck you! d.i.f.f.m. fuck you! d.i.f.f.m. fuck you! d.i.f.f.m. fuck you!
i will not hesitate, if i wait, i give in to chance and i cant live life that way. can you read my face, theres no way i'll turn and walk away so just make your mistake. so when the time comes i dont care, when the time comes i'll be there, when the time comes show no fear, 'cause its time and im right here. i will not lose face, i'll save, everything i am 'cause thats just how i was made. i will not hesitate,
if i wait i give into chance and i cant live life that way. a wise man once said to me ??짝????'on, dont you ever back down to no one? 'cause i'll be there, dont show no fear.
i know its hard for me to see, the way things have come to be but i must leave it be. cant keep looking back, i dont know how to act. i dont know where to start, i know ive been here before. my conscience still believes that it was on me. my guilty heart bleeds dont want to feel this no more. so tell me something since youve done nothing except you lied to me. you said youd never leave, after all this i wanted to believe that you still care about my life. just tell me something so i can go in peace 'cause we could not make that sacrifice. after all this i wanted to believe that you still care about me.
its hard to see, but it must be, you take away a piece of me. i never take a step back, never look back. ive come to face the facts and i know where you stand. i wont take another step back, never look back.
new times draw upon me i cant forsee whats next. but i feel free to do what i have to do, i answer to, only g.o.d. i look up to. cant say ive changed, cant say that im still the same. i mintain through my mindstrains to figure out the next move without pain. still searching for teh way to work it out, soul searching cant do nothing about what lies next on lifes list, will i live, will we ever get out? trapped visions that i must believe, so far away from i cant retreat. sometimes i find a way to get mine, other times im lost, im blind. the pressure gets hard B,
i cant lose track its always on me. i cant stray 'cause it wont go away, gotta figure out the next move day by day. times out! do or die, its my time, its my life, its my time, do or die. do or die, its our time-its our lives. times out.
youre always talking but the things you say have no meaning, they carry no weight. take your time but dont waste mine. go sell your stories im not looking to buy. we all have flaws but this is your downfall. talkin a game you cant even back up and youre so hollow you have no clue. theres repercussions and theyre comin for you. confessions-i leave it up to you, i know where i stand. oppressions-something i must choose to make you understand. to make you understand i dont share your pains 'cause i dont preach about pointless things.
i only speak when i have something to say or i wont fake moves disgrace my name. self pride-i cant throw away, i have too much love for family. self pride-i wont throw away, raised to be real from the first day.
beware of whats around you. the elements of life will sometimes take you in. bad things always surround you. its your choice now to think. crime is easy to come by and temptation is bound to bring you down. corruption distorts your judgement and it seems you cant trust no one now. thinking to myself theres a price to pay. is it worth the pain, the pain of someone taking your life away? saying to myself there is a better way. its not worth the pain, the pain of someone taking it all away. memories are here to remind you, learn from your brothers.
dont make their mistakes. trouble will somehow find you, its your choice to contemplate. crime dont pay in the long run. money aint worth the risk of death or jail. im not judging no one. im just thinking, talkin to myself.
i never backstab another to save mine, i stand the time. for me its do or die, these are the rules i live by. and i shed my blood for my brothers of the same mind, of the same kind, who never leave a side. see we never think twice, and they shed their blood for me. shos by my side, im by your side. my blood is my loyalty, my brothers are loyal to me.
who by my side, this is what we believe. we stand for one another in hard times, in good times. no matter what we find, a way so we can get by. and i shed my blood for my.
