Pride:
Everything is messed up but you won't take any blame.
Everyone loses when you play this stupid game.
Pride is your poison, killing you from the inside.
Your ego is your prison with walls ten miles high.
I'm reaching out my hand but you won't bridge the divide.
You've hurt everyone you love to keep your precious pride.
Nobody's perfect, even you make mistakes.
Admit your faults and give us all a break.
You can't see it, but you're headed for a fall.
That landing's gonna hurt off a horse that's ten feet tall.
I'm reaching out my hand but you won't bridge the divide.
You've hurt everyone you love to keep your precious pride.
So you'd rather be right than compromise
You'd rather win the fight than keep the family alive.
It makes me sad that you won't take my hand.
I see your priorities and now I see where I stand

Who I Am

How long will you wait for this phase to pass
Can't you see this is me and this is going to last.
Don't have to prove it, it's who I am.
Don't have to hide it, it's who I am.
Don't need to fight it, it's who I am.
I'm not sorry, it's who I am.
Lots of times I tried to change, tried to be someone else.
I'm done with that masquerade, I'm gonna be myself.
I won't apologize/I finally realize/ Don't act surprised/This is my life

Got Your Back

You and I have been together since back in the day.
Friends have come and friends have gone, but we've stayed
True, till our last breath, standing side by side.
Together through thick and thin I hope you realize
That I've always got your back.
Always a strong shoulder, always an open ear.
Even as we get older our bond will still be here.
Sometimes the going gets tough, I won't shy from the fight.
Together we can make it through even the darkest night.
Cause I've always got your back.
We've been the best of friends since the day we met.
I'm always in your corner and you can bet
That I've always got your back.

It's time to take back the night don't be afraid to defend your rights.
We're done being polite. It's time to take a stand.
I want you all to see if we're not safe we'll never be free.
Screaming at society it's time to take a stand.
Raise your voice, feel empowered.
If you're ignored make it louder.
Make 'em run, the fucking cowards, it's time to take a stand.
I won't be a victim. They tried, but I won't let them
take my strength and security it's time to take a stand.
I might never have justice but I can always have peace.

Right Now

What are you doing right now?
Dreading the future, lamenting the past.
Engage your mind right now.
Better grab on 'cause it won't last.
What the hell are you waiting for?
Opportunity's knocking at your door.
Are you going to answer it or just let it pass.
You know it won't last.
Let's go! It won't last.
All you've got is right now.
Get off your ass, you're not powerless.
You have to do it right now.
Left wondering why nursing regrets.
My scars remind me of lessons I've learned
Your face reminds me of bridges I've burned.
Being sentimental makes me sick,
Fuck the past, get on with it!
You know it won't last.
Let's go! It won't last.
I'll let go of a bitter past so I can have a better future.
I won't waste today on things that I can't change.
I'm not going to waste today.
Let's Go!

Better Tomorrow

I've got holes in my shoes rain on my face
Bills piling up and I can't catch a break.
Not enough money I'm so fucking stressed
Sometimes I wonder if this is just a test.
Tomorrow's a big day, I'm going to live how I want
I'm done complaining gonna stop entertaining
Negative thoughts, and people, and scenes.
I may live like a peasant, but I can walk like a king.
I've got noble thoughts and noble deeds.
Hang out with friends who appreciate me.
I'm gonna earn my way, be productive
Stay positive and not be destructive.
Head high
Eyes clear
Walk tall
Without fear
Always something to get me down
but there's always hope to be found.
Bad times can't stay things will start to go my way
