Hatebreed Album

How much more can you possibly take?
How many battlescan you loose in one day?
Who is the source of all your pain
And how do you ever plain to be unrestrainded?
How much longer? How much more?
Until you gain some self respect.
For once, just stand the fuck up and fight!
Confront and shatter everything that stands in your way.

Every burden every source of strife.
TEAR IT DOWN
Every cage every fucking vice.
TEAR IT DOWN
Distorted notions of who you are.
TEAR IT DOWN
Imposed values and beliefs.
TEAR THEM DOWN

TEAR IT DOWN NOW!

Straight to your face with the truth!
The longest it takes for you to achieve
The faster they want to see you break.
It's in their nature to try to destroy
What they know they could not help create
I've seen it for years and i know first hand
Who is genuine and who is fake
The rest of the leeches will come and go
Good riddance, we hated you anyway
Straight to your face with the truth!
Sometimes it gets hard
When the road to the future take you back
To a better day, you wonder and ask yourself
Where the time went and why some people
Had lost their faith
Though some memories and the friendships we had over time
have begun to fade
We're stil right here and we're stronger than ever
What we've done can never be taken away

Facing what consumes you is the only way to be free
Released from those poisonous fears
Resurrected once and for all
You want me to hold my tongue
Then why the fuck am i here?
You want me to bottle my rage
Cause you never had the heart to say what i say
My life, my body, my pride.
You have no opinion, no right
I've built myself nothing like you
My refusal is my way of life

Doubt me, hate me
You're the inpiration i need

My life, my body, my pride
You have no say
My life, my body, my pride
You don't have say

Facing what consumes you is the only way to be free
Though I'm still far from perfection
I stay relevant, I'm still vigilante
I have so much more to say
I have so much more to fight for
I've used your lack of insiration
As my awakening, its my ability to live forever
By my own command
To be Vehement, remain confident

Doubt me, Hate me
You're the inspiration i need

You're all the inspiration i need

Your doubt, it fuels me
Your hate, it drives me
The challenge ignites me
You make me fight harder

Let's go!
Live for this, live, live
Live for this
Live for this, live, live
If you don't live for something you'll die for nothing

Through the best and the worst
The struggle and sacrifice
For the true who've remained and the new blood
Motivation, undying allegiance
Striving through the hardship and affliction

Every drop of blood
Every bitter tear
Every bead of sweat
I live for this

Live for this, live, live
Live for this
Live for this, live, live
If you don't live for something you'll die for nothing

What we have are not possessions we own
It's not weighed by greed or personal gain
This is real a desire for freedom
A place apart from a world in abandon

Every drop of blood
Every bitter tear
Every bead of sweat
I live for this

Live for this, live, live
If you dont live for something you'll die for nothing
I live for this

Every drop of blood
Every bitter tear
Every bead of sweat
I live for this

Your doom awaits you
Selfish ones who think this world revolves for them
Around their games and illusions
They give nothing but their hands are always out to take
I wish you misery now, desolation

Cast down, defeated, never to rise
Cast down, defeated, never to rise again (repeat 1x)

Wallow in your hypocrisy
You want respect but you'll never earn it
Condemned to your heresy
You want respect but you'll never earn it
Your life is a fantasy
You want respect but you'll never earn it
Now you live out your blasphemy
You want respect but you haven't done a thing to earn it

I'll be your doomsayer..........motherfucker
Your doom awaits you

Cast down, defeated, never to rise
Cast down, defeated, never to rise again (repeat 2x)

Wallow in your hypocrisy
You want respect but you'll never earn it
Condemned to your heresy
You want respect but you'll never earn it
Your life is a fantasy
You want respect but you'll never earn it
Now you live out your blasphemy
You want respect but you never done shit to earn it

your doom awaits you

The question they keep asking me
How can one so young be so bitter and angry
Well the answer is plain to see
Just look around at this world that we're living in
Its die and let die, take or be taken from
And there's nowhere to run
Who do we look to
What have we done
These times have taken the best from us

All I see is killing
Another day, another vendetta
There is so much suffering
Another day, another vendetta

I see the homeless standing out on the streets
On every corner, they're asking for money
I try to help them whenever i cant but sometimes
I can't afford to help myself
I see diseases and modern plagues of our time
The greed of our leaders have made them blind
To our problems, they spend millions over seas
While people right here are fighting wars everyday

All I see is killing
Another day, another vendetta
There is so much suffering
Another day, another vendetta

All you can do is stay close to what is true to you
Stay close to what is true to you
All you can do is stay close to what is true to you
Stay close to what is true to you

Never let go of what you strive for
Hold tight, never let go
Never let go of what you strive for
Never think you can't make a change

All I see is killing
Another day, another vendetta
There is so much suffering
Another day, another vendetta

Do it
Some scars are meant to be worn with pride
Everyday is knowledge to use in life
A lesson lived is a lesson learned
Setbacks used to propel me forward
Misjudgement taken as force to do right
A better outlook a mindset of power
Each day resolve and reform

A lesson lived is a lesson learned
You've got to fend yourself
A lesson lived is a lesson learned
Everyday is a lesson

Said so many things that I wish I could retract
I got my issues, I've got my demons
Finished what I began and finally saw
It's how you use the knowledge you've been given
Stood tall when others would have turned and run
Put my work in when everyone quit
Claw and tear for everything i have
And I've only just begun

A lesson lived is a lesson learned
You've got to fend yourself
A lesson lived is a lesson learned
Everyday is a lesson

In this very moment, agony exists
Unbeknowst to an unforgiving force
Some pray, some bed, without consolation
The pure lie beneath us while the scum walk the earth
Why can't we heal them
Why can't we see them
Can we keep hoping, no one knows for sure
Blamelessly renouncing, guilt has no bearing
I must believe that there is a better way

Beholder of justice
Who have you abandoned
Beholder of justice
Why have you forgotten us

Why, why have you forgotten us
Why, why must the innocent die

If I could reverse this I swear I would
I would take the pain away, I swear to you
Broken souls and misery it seems we're too far gone
Now we can only ask and wish for our complete redemtion

Beholder of justice
Who have you abandoned
Beholder of justice
Why have you forgotten us

Why, does such innocence suffer
While the evil prospers
Why, beholder of justice
Why have you forgotten us

How can I stand by your judgement

Another memory and I'm asking myself
Why can't I let the past be the past
Once and for all take a hold of the future
And not let it control what I aspire to have
I see where my decisions have brought me
What's done is done and its time to start again
Can't let it tear me in two, or waste me away
I gotta believe

Cause this is now (Now!)
How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today
This is now (Now!)
If I control myself I control my destiny
This is now (Now!)
How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today
This is now (Now!)
If I control myself I control my destiny

What I've seen and what I've been through has made me who I am
There was a time in my life where I had no desire to carry on
I couldn't see a place for me or a will to survive
I never thought to rely on myself or the beliefs that I had denied

But this is now (Now!)
How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today
This is now (Now!)
If I control myself I control my destiny
This is now (Now!)
How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today
This is now (Now!)
If I control myself I control my destiny

If I control myself
I control my tomorrow
I got to change today
Cause this is now

Now (Now!), Now (Now!)
This is now

How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today
I must control myself if I'm to control my destiny

Cause this is now
This is now...

This is now (Now!)
How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today
This is now (Now!)
If I control myself I control my destiny
This is now (Now!)
How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today
This is now (Now!)
If I control myself I control my destiny

If they said they knew the truth
They lie
No one said my faith wouldn't be questioned
Been driven to the brink
Because the truth is too hard to accept
When you face your mortal enemy

Who ever said I need you, lied
Who ever said you knew the truth, lied
Who ever thought they knew my faith, lied
And if they think they know now, they fucking lie.

They lie

Where are all your answers now
That you've been calledout
I kneel down and mourn for what we had
I can't be there for you now
Hear my voice of contention
It's sad you made me this way
Hear my voice of contention
It's so hard to see this end

Who ever said I need you, lied
Who ever said you knew the truth, lied
Who ever thought they knew my faith, lied
And if they think they know now, they fucking lie.

You think you know the truth
You lie

Where are all your answers now
That you've been calledout
I kneel down and mourn for what we had
I can't be there for you now

The time has come to deny your ways
To rid ourselves of the parasites
Shedding dead weight, reclaiming what's ours
Taking each moment with force again
No crosses to bear, no time to be wasted
A fearless approach to oppression
A constant attack to never retreat from
With no other choice but resistence

What will it take
You must choose or be chosen for
What will is take
Choose or be chosen

Its all that we ask, for what we demand
The decisions we make we will live by
Proving your weakness
Denouncing your claims
Your feeble attempts to demean us
What more can you do, You're against the wall
Your lies will be heard for the last time
Say what you will it's only in vain
This is that justice I fought to attain

What will it take
You must choose or be chosen for
What will is take
Choose or be chosen
What will it take
You must choose or be chosen for
What will is take
Choose or be chosen

What will it take
Choose, choose
What will it take
Choose, choose
Choose or be chosen

Give me something real
Give me back those years
Give me peave of mind
Give me something more

Strength, to deny you
Trust, in my instincts
Breathe, when I'm drowning
Life, when I'm lying dead
Hearts, mend the pieces
Dreams, have been shattered
Love crucified, forgiveness denied
Strength, to deny you
Trust, in my instincts
Breathe, when I'm drowning
Life, when I'm lying dead
Hearts, mend the pieces
Dreams, have been shattered
Love crucified, forgiveness denied

Give me something real
Give me back those years
Give me peave of mind
Give me something more

I confide in no one

Strength, to deny you
Trust, in my instincts
Breathe, when I'm drowning
Life, when I'm lying dead
Hearts, mend the pieces
Dreams, have been shattered
Love crucified, forgiveness denied

The betrayal, so hard for the victim to fathom
Burn every word, every page, every letter

Confide in no one
Confide in nothing

No one, no one
Confide in no one

No one

Give me something real
Give me back those years
Give me peave of mind
Give me something more

Bound to violence
Gagged by pain
Drowned in self-regret
This grief is the sentence you face

Incomplete, you've lost your way
Struggling with rationale
In a world so cold and bleak
How could this be a place for you?

Bound to violence
Gagged by pain
Drowned in self-regret
This grief is the sentence you face

You're bound to violence
Bound, bound, bound to violence
Gagged, gagged, gagged by pain
Drowned, drowned in self-regret
And this grief
Bound to violence

Violence begets violence
Pain begets pain
Haunted by a dying hope
Subconsciously needing the agony

When will you face this?
Why do you run?
How will you ever heal
If you've lost the ability to feel?

Bound to violence
Gagged by pain
Drowned in self-regret
This grief is the sentence you face

You're bound to violence
Bound, bound, bound to violence
Gagged, gagged, gagged by pain
Drowned, drowned in self-regret
And this grief
