1: GREED

Everything you see you always think you need You are so crazy motivated by greed You never take responsibility You only waste your time when you fuck with me All you do is take you see my hatred grows Can't take much more I'm about to explode You'll see a side Of me I've never shown You'll feel pain like you've never known Got enough but you want it all In it for greed now you're gonna fall Here we come gonna ruin your day Time has come It's your turn to pay The mighty dollar is your only care You're movin' up but you're going nowhere You say you only want to get your share But you still want more no you won't play fair you'll never ever quit you won't be denied You sit and watch your money multiply To get what you want you'll cheat and lie But I know - you won't be satisfied Today is a good day for suffering 

2: MY OWN COUNTRY

Fools run the government sick foreign policy Their words sound valiant but their hands are green Unending quest for power Taxes that make us slaves Don't believe a word of it ignore the fucked up things they say I'm gonna make it on my own Dictator on a throne Make my own philosophy U.S. of me A citizen who's really pissed United Anarchists Give me death or liberty I am my own country United States Confederate of Me Old whigs in parliament play bedroom politics Salacious stories make them look obscene Spin on your nemesis fill up the news today Don't believe a word of it not all the fucked up things they say it's ail me No secret police

3: CAN'T BELIEVE IT

Wait! Can't Believe it Another victim another life another wasted casualty The youth are shooting, robbing and looting violence plagues society in LA. you see it everyday on your TV on your front page you can try but you can't wish it away I said wait can't believe it drunk and loaded in the street hatred flowing through their veins no respect for human life a world that slowly goes insane on your front page on your TV it's the endless urban tragedy in your dark thoughts and wildest dreams can you imagine a worse society and when I think I can pretend I turn on my TV again and all the fucked up things I see I can't believe how this can be.

4: VICTIM OF REALITY

Take a ride and you will see another dose of reality It's your life that becomes a victim of me I think I'm sick and you will see Because one good shot and you=ll end up dead It's violence on the streets and it will never end The world is not built for me and your my next victim Victim of reality Voices screaming in my head telling me the path that I tread It's not sane but it's where we're fed You're gonna end up dead It's not something new to me a body in the street free publicity for me and you a world we've known a world that is so cold

5: MIGHT BE A DREAM

The look in your eyes tells me you can't disguise why won't you try and face the truth You're stuck nowhere I can see that you don=t care It doesn't seem like it means much to you I'm sick of listening to you whining It might be a dream instead it means nothing It could be everything you wanted it to be It might be a dream instead it means nothing It could be everything you wanted it to be It might be a dream I see you everyday wasting your time away afraid to try afraid to lose don't know why you can't see you could have everything or nothing at all it's up to you you've always got to keep on trying You know you're life could be all you want it be keep getting closer day by day Images in your head and they wont go away if you don't try you'll only fail

6: STILL CAN BE GREAT

Every time you try to change something always goes wrong And by the time you figure it out everything you wanted was gone do you know there is a way to be everything you always wanted to be Can I Say if you start today you begin to make your own reality don't say it's not worth it I know you can change It may never be perfect there's no one to blame When you feel yourself going down pick yourself up off the ground It may never be perfect it still can be great So you think you've lost your chance the world just keeps passing you by But you can find what you're looking for only if you're willing to try  

7: STRAIGHT AHEAD

All the things you want all the things you need you got the power to choose you got the right to be all the things you loathe all the things you hate is what you will become until you will go straight all the things denied the shit you can't believe you don't blame your self you blame society all the things in life that you've been waiting for wait outside your door All your problems won't go away I guess this is the price you pay your decisions you will soon regret throw away your life go straight ahead I see you everyday wasting your time away you got no respect got nothing good to say all the things you loathe all the things you hate see what you will become unless you will go straight all the things in life all that you wanna be but you don't even try you want it all for free all the things in life that you've been waiting for wait outside your door   

8: MY OWN WAY

I got my way of life and I won't back down or apologize for things I cannot change guess I gotta do things my own way And I don't give a damn if you got a problem with who I am Cause I don't give a fuck you wanna change me well you're outta luck I don't think that I could never ever change And I don't know if I would want to anyway And I don't care if never live to see the day We can compromise I'm doing things my own way It's so hard to believe that we can see the world so differently We don't realize cause we can't see the world through each other's eyes We'll never understand I don=t think that anybody can I won't change anyway guess were both just stubborn stuck in our ways I don't care if you never see the world like I do

9: ONE VOICE

A million faces are blurred in today A million lives that are so far away I'm alone and I want you to know I want to scream but there's nowhere to goA million voices are making the cry a million lives that are waiting to die A million families are wasting away split by decision it must go away Someone soon is goona die wasting away in a world full of lies Song unseen another day somehow tomorrow somehow today If you don't listen you'll never learn watch yourself or you might get burned Isn't it time to tell yourself I've got to get out I've got to go We've got to be one voice How many lives will be taken today How many times will we just look away How many voices cry to be heard screaming alone but no one hears a word How many faces alone in the crowd waiting for answers facing the clouds How much longer do we have to wait times running out and there's no time to waste

10: ALIEN

Everyday convince myself of everything I can and can't believe abused confused   Everyday you fee every crime just stare up at the sky and wonder why afraid deranged   Hold on to your promise you can use it for a crutch stand by while all your dreams are trampled in the dust Leave now before your slick machines begin to rust Last chance farewell among us   Everyday you get a little bit older and everything gets hard you wonder why   afraid deranged   everyday you feel every crime an endless shocking show on the parade abused confused   Where are the Aliens? We're the Aliens    

11: WATCH ME AS I FALL

I am a puppet on a string   I am the worst thing worst thing you've ever seen   I am impossible to believe   I'm pulled by gravity shocked by my depravity   I'm irrational I'm illogical hypocritical a bleeding heart liberal   I'm an alien dressed like Gideon I'm a malcontent   a thorough modern idiot watch me as I fall   I am humble I am vain   what motivates me something I can't explain   I am outrageous and insane   I'm fueled by gasoline, alcohol and nicotine   I'm an honest hypocrite imploding modern idiot   I am a slave to my abuse convicted caught with no excuse I'm pathetic apathetic disillusioned disconnected   I am lost I am free I'm impossible to believe   a walking chemical statistically impossible   a thorough modern idiot watch me as I fall

12: JUST FOR YOU

Confusion just sets in it always does where does life begin you never know you won't know until it hits you You never act the same You always play the game You play to kill You won't see it coming You wanna see a change for tomorrow You wanna see a change just for you Depression closes in you can't escape no one understands   they can't relate you won't know until it hits you It never goes away feel it everyday your only hope it could change tomorrow You wanna see a change for tomorrow You wanna see a change just for you You wanna see a change before you throw it all away Something has gotta break Just for you break through tradition break through to life hold onto anything you can find    

13: CAN'T TAKE ANYMORE

Thought you could face the world now you lost your nerve   All the things you held so close until the tables turned   And when I tried to warn you still you took the risk   How did I know we'd drift apart how did I know it would come to this   Now everything is over and it never will return   You're just a part of my life a memory I wanna burn   I could feel it ending you won't face the truth   I can't live with all your lies I can't take more of your abuse   No I can't take anymore Don't apologize to even the score   Hypocrisy and unity they're not just words to me   No I can't take anymore   Want to send you a letter just to put your mind at ease   I could write it up in the sky I still don't think that you could see   You won't admit that it's over you won't face the truth   I can live with all your lies I can't take more of your abuse   All the things you try to hide won't wash away   All the life you took from me you can't disguise will never fade   So don't look for the answers or somewhere to place the blame   There's nothing that can save you now   can't get back what you threw away  

14: AMERICAN DREAM

Things you can't deny you best believe it when everything you wanted is gone Struck down although you don't like it nothing of value to be found   Violence breeds violence you know we'll never stop it for progress we will protect the game  We struck the fuse you can't refuse it the memory is all that will remain The political scene coming apart at the seams Its the end of the American Dream The temperature is ready to burst   The future is not what it seems for the American Dream  Time has come you know we can't stop it You know that the end is drawing near   Knocked down the sound of it collapsing So loud no one can hear Mindless old tyrants do you hear the sirens song that will herald your demise excessive sessions on your transgressions we're all left sifting through the lies

15: NEED MORE

Everything you say to me is a lie you've lost control   All you say is just a mask for what you feel down deep inside   And I don't care about getting your respect not in your eyes   It's just an illusion a faded dream of what we had and so much more   So if you wanted to ask and I think you should know   I've given up on the past Now I know that I need more this time   Everytime I try to make you understand you look away   And now I know you are never going to change you've lost control   I wanna know how you lost your self-respect you are so blind   It's not an illusion and I can't understand why you don't want more

16: NEVER KNOW

With so much bullshit what can you believe   So many lives all divided by greed   No way to stop no way to erase what we all cannot face   Sometimes the thunder it slowly creeps in   makes us all wonder where did it begin   No way to stop it only it will grow  to what we will never know   I just can't believe no way to stop it if no one can see   We gotta take control or we will rover know   Say what you wanna say there's no tomorrow if we don't start today   We gotta take control or we will never know   It's on your tv all over the news   what does it matter it's not happening to you   No you can't stop it can't wish it way   And it happens more everyday   When will we stand up when will be heard   They go on screaming no one hears a word No way to stop only it will grow ti what we will never know

17: BADGE OF PRIDE

All the bullshit that I see so much I can't believe grown man just tryin' to be true to myself impossibly I may not ever get rich might wind up diggin' a ditch I won't cry no I won't bitch I wont back down and I'll never quit It is my badge of pride -hardcore 'til the day I die just tryin' to survive I won't back down or apologize Say what you wanna say I'm not listening anyway I'll believe what I wanna believe true to myself that's how it's gotta be. All the methods that I use all the things I use and abuse it all leaves me confused I've beer torn up, beat down and bruised but somehow I was saved and I'm standing here today Now I do things my own way cause I'm never going back again
