It’s not hard to see,
This promise meant more to me
It is clear to me,
Straight edge persistency

Drowning in Hatred
03:10
|

Just because we’re blood,
Doesn’t make us family,
On your dying bed,
You will get no sympathy,
I spit in your face,
For the way you treated,
Now I spit on your grave,
for eternity,
I have not forgotten,
And I will not forgive,
This nightmare you put me through,
Made me who I am,
I was Raised
Drowning in Hatred,
I watched you kiss that bottle,
Blacken my heart, your lungs, my eyes,
Now When you are confronted,
You just turn your head, why,
It’s drive me fucking mad,
I can’t look you in the eye,
Without thinking of those times,
And i wonder why, god, why,
Addiction, pushed you,
To push me, further away,
Affliction, resulting From all these years of disdain,
Eviction, of the horrors in my home,
Conviction, a promise to not be you,
I am not you

Turn the Key
02:10

Is it worth it? To put lives on the line?
Rather than find a fucking ride?
You’ve taken loved ones from me,
I show no sympathy,
You caused this agony,
Everytime you turn the key,
It’s attempt at first degree,
You know you are guilty,
When you said only tipsy,
Fuck. You.
You took my fucking brother.
Fuck. You.
You twisted mother fucker.
Think of what you’ve done,
A life loss can’t be undone,
Think of what you stole,
I hope it leaves you cold,
I’m boiling over,
Won’t stop until you are sober,
Fist full of fury,
Don’t you come near me,
Mother Fucker.

No Peace
02:16
|
|||
|
Brainwashed,
Through and through,
A hatful hypnotize,
Fuck a blue line,
Fuck a blue life,
Soaking up every single lie,
I think it’s time to recognize,
Serve and Protect only applies to one kind,
They’re not there for you,
They’re not there for me,
a bad seed spreads like disease,
no accountability,
No remorse for the victims,
They lock them up with no release,
There is No justice, there is no peace
No remorse for them,
Lock them instead
There is no peace,
Come get a fucking piece of me

More to Me
09:36
|
|||
|
This is the path I’ve chosen,
This is the life I lead,
Three X’s that guide my way,
I’ll take this to my fucking grave,
A promise etched in my flesh,
All these years still not a trend, As everyone around me breaks, These words still resonate,
Straight edge
Means more to me,
It’s not a trend to me,
It’s not a fucking trend
